Cornerstone Classrooms
Has your child been asked to leave preschool because of behavior problems?
Few child care centers are equipped to understand and help children who exhibit ongoing behavioral challenges. At Wellspring Family Services we have decades of experience and our knowledgeable staff are specially trained to help.
We can help support the emotional development of your child ages 3 1/2 -5 years and help him or her learn positive relationship skills.
Using the Cornerstone Method of Reflective Network Therapy developed by Dr. Gilbert Kliman we meet children in a natural setting - a classroom - and work with them through play and socialization with other children.
Our teachers and infant mental health specialists create a network using input from parents, teachers, and therapists and work one-on-one with children inside of the classroom. Our goal is to provide special care to help stabilize children so they can go on to be successful in school and life.(Keywords: Childcare, Early Learning, Education, Preschool, )

WISe wraparound Skagit County
CCS provides wraparound services for children and youth with multiple and complex needs in Whatcom and Skagit counties. A child/youth’s history and needs, as well the family’s interest in participating, are taken into consideration when deciding whether our wraparound program offers the appropriate level of care. The wraparound process is intended to achieve positive outcomes by providing a structured, creative and individualized team planning process with youth, family and natural supports as key members of the team. The program is voluntary and each enrolled family is assigned a Care Coordinator who supports the team process. An assigned Family Support Partner represents the parent perspective and serves as parent support and advocate. Youth Partners are available for older youth to engage them in their own treatment. An assigned therapist works closely with youth, their families, and the entire wraparound team. Wraparound services adhere to certain defining principles, such as youth-guided, family-centered, strengths-based and culturally relevant.(Keywords: ADD, ADHD, Abuse, Adoption, Anger management, Autism, Counseling, Child Protective Services, Depression, Disability, Early Learning, Education, Father, Fun, Home Visit, Mental Health, Mother, Post-Adoption, School, Special Needs, Step Parent, Stress, Support, Teen, )
