Premier Care for Children
HARRISON KIDS
A head start to health & wellness
Harrison Kids is a progressive program to help children develop a solid physical, psychological and cognitive foundation that will help them achieve their full potential (physical, mental, behavioral and academic) . Designed for children under the age of 12, it is a program that closely tracks and monitors their development to identify issues at the earliest possible stage to lower the risk of health problems or behaviors that may impact them later in life.
