What is the Pyramid Model?

The Pyramid Model is a clear, step-by-step approach that helps you create a safe, caring, and consistent childcare environment. It builds on children's skills, helps prevent problem behaviors, and prepares them for lifelong success. It works for all children, including those who need extra help.

Benefits of using the Pyramid Model

Programs that use the Pyramid Model often see:

  • Fewer challenging behaviors in children.
  • Teachers who feel more confident and skilled.
  • Happier staff and families.
  • Less staff turnover.
