Wonderful Week at Westside!

Because children don’t come with instruction manuals, SDPB is partnering with a company called Bright by Text. Bright by Text provides free tips, information, and resources to help all parents and caregivers give every child a bright beginning.
This text messaging service delivers actionable information from trusted early childhood experts to parents and caregivers of young children — from prenatal to age eight — to support healthy child development and build strong, resilient families.
SDPB is working with local early childhood experts to provide localized information for parents and caregivers.
The service is free. To sign up, simply text SDKids to 274448.
