Glenbard Parents as Teachers is a free home visiting and community doula program, for families with a pregnancy, infant, toddler, and in some cases, up through kindergarten. It is completely voluntary and all are welcome. We primarily serve the Glendale Heights, Glen Ellyn, Lombard, Addison, Carol Stream, and parts of Addison and Wheaton, but we have a farther reach for the community service. It is currently open to families with children birth to three and pregnant moms in districts 15, 16, 41, 44, 89, and 93.
Doulas provide personalized childbirth preparation for you and your family, 24/7 support during labor and delivery, and post-partum home visits to assist with the transition to a new baby, including breastfeeding support if desired.
Home visitors provide individualized home visits to support and guide parents. Families receive bi-weekly home visits for parent-child interaction and family support, weekly group sessions, ongoing developmental screening, and connection to needed community resources. In addition to the home visits, the home visitors also provide parent-child interactive groups in Glen Ellyn and Glendale Heights. They work in conjunction with the Glenbard Early Childhood Collaborative and other home visiting programs. Services are provided in both English and Spanish, with interpreters for other languages as needed.
