OUR VISION
The vision of Horry County First Steps is that every child will enter school healthy and ready to learn.

Parents As Teachers

The Parents As Teachers (PAT) program is for families that have children 0-5 years old. The goal of the PAT program is to support parents as their child’s first and best teacher. Our Parent Educators visit the families in their homes twice a month until the child is 5 years old. Learn More>

BabyNet

BabyNet offers developmental screenings and evaluations for children age 0-3 in South Carolina. There is no cost to the family to get Early Intervention if the caregivers have any suspicion or concern of Developmental Delay. Income is not a factor. BabyNet is a voluntary program, and is funded from Part C of Idea. Learn More>
