Welcome to As I Grow-San Antonio
Our History
As I Grow was a newly formed organization in 2019. It was created with one main goal, to provide developmental screenings for children up to 60 months. Along with that, it was to provide parenting information, the various styles of parenting, the benefits of parenting education and other parenting resources. When COVID struck in early 2020, the relationships we had only began to develop with other organizations came to a screeching halt. Although, our main goal was halted, we continued part of the mission by providing child development information via Facebook. Five years later, providing information on developmental screenings and the screenings remains our focus.
Every child is different, but most will follow a typical path of development. It is not necessary, but it is best to be aware of developmental milestones so as parents we can provide a variety of opportunities that foster a child's development. Developmental screenings also provide a look at any potential delays.
Starting a garden, and maintaining it takes knowledge, time and commitment and a lot of nurturing, as does the child. A gardener never gives up on his or her garden. As parents, our goal is always to provide an environment conducive for optimal development.
