So, how do you know you’ve chosen the right path for your son or daughter’s success? Every child is unique, and finding the right early education solution isn’t easy. You know your child best. Is she comfortable with new situations, or cautious around strangers? Does he enjoy activities for large groups, or does he prefer smaller group settings that are less overwhelming? Is she always on the go, or does she enjoy playing quietly? Envisioning your child in different care settings can help you determine the right fit for your family.

After analyzing millions of Internet visits and interviewing scores of consumers, Brookdale Senior Living has built a new website based on fresh insights into what’s most important to families searching for senior care. The first phase, which is a $4 million investment, went live on brookdale.com mid-August.
“With Brookdale’s website attracting more than 500,000 visits every month, it’s imperative to make it as useful to consumers as possible,” said David Cygan, Brookdale’s senior vice president of marketing. “As the nation’s largest senior living provider, we know our website is a primary source of information, with many people coming to us first as they embark on this journey,” Cygan said. “It’s important that we offer substantive resources that make it easier to find help in evaluating senior care options.” More than 80 percent of adult children turn to the Internet when they look for care for an aging parent, according to the company’s research.
