What is KindyLinQ? KindyLinQ is an intergenerational facilitated early learning and development program for 3‐year‐old children and their parents/caregivers. KindyLinQ programs provide engaging early learning experiences for young children and targeted guidance for families to support their child's learning and development at home. What is the purpose of KindyLinQ? KindyLinQ aims to enhance parental understanding of the protective factors that enable children's learning and development to flourish. Through the modelling of positive interactions with children, KindyLinQ staff support families to build their understanding of child learning and development and the ways they can support this at home. KindyLinQ provides an opportunity for the host school to forge strong and supportive links between home, other local schools, early childhood services and the community.
