HIPPY is an international programme, operating in 8 countries around the world. HIPPY started in Israel in 1968 and is well supported by research. HIPPY Oakville sends Home Visitors to the homes of vulnerable families to teach a 30 week curriculum of pre-reading, pre-math and pre-writing skills to 3,4 and 5 year old children. HIPPY helps three constituents: The Home Visitors are entry level workers who are trained and given 100 hours of education per year. After 2 - 3 years they are supported to find higher level work. The Mothers by being recognized as their children's first and best teacher develop their skills and self-esteem. They also foster their relationships with their children. Their children complete a carefully constructed curriculum and arrive at school, confident and ready to learn.
The HIPPY program offers structured 30-week curricula in English or French – one program each for 3-, 4- and 5-year old children – in the family home. Every week, our home visitors deliver activity packets and related books to participating parents, teaching them how to follow different daily activities with their children and what skills are being developed. Parents are expected to spend 15-30 minutes each day with their children, doing the activities proposed in the HIPPY curriculum.
