EXPECTATIONS
HILLTOP’s work is based on knowledge and respect. You expect both from us and the work we do incudes respect for the staff, children, and families receiving services from your program. Our work is thoroughly grounded in research and knowledge of child development and is culturally sensitive. Research shows that play-based child-centered approaches that use ongoing assessment are most effective. We weave social/emotional development into all areas of our work. We can help you implement these approaches.

WE HELP SOLVE PROBLEMS
Notice, we don’t solve your problems. We look at the strengths and resources and recommend realistic solutions that may work in your setting, for your unique needs. HILLTOP Early Childhood SERVICES helps each client become more effective than they had believed they could be. This is why most of our clients have called us back again to help them with other problems. Some clients have used several of our services over the years, as they have funds. One client has been using our services every few years since 2002! Let us help you!
