Earn While You Learn


 

                                   

 

 

We have implemented a new curriculum that has been developed specifically for clients who need to learn how to be better parents.  It was developed by a Pregnancy Crisis Center Director named Dinah Monahan of Show Low, Arizona.  It is an in-depth educational program consisting of 45 hours of prenatal, parenting, and life issue lessons.

The education is provided through Volunteer/Co-Director, Debbie Atchley.  Our goal is to equip our clients to become the best parent they can be.

By completing the program requirements such as homework, watching educational videos, etc.  Our clients earn "Mommy Money" to spend at the Baby Store located at Birthline of Wellington.  The baby store is stocked with maternity items, baby items, and children's clothing up to size 5.

If you are (or your partner is) pregnant and want to learn how to be a good parent, this program is for you!  You will have the opportunity to earn the items you will need for pregnancy and parenting while becoming educated on a wide variety of subjects that are applicable to your life.

If you are interested in this program, please call Birthline at (620) 326-7800.  We would love to help you be the best parent you can be to your new child.

 

The Curriculum

The Earn While You Learn Curriculum can be tailored to the specific needs of the client.  Each client will fill out an intake form to show their case worker which lessons will be needed and useful and which lessons are not applicable.  The following is a list of modules and the hour lessons within them.
