Abstract
May is the time when parents choose an educational institution for their child, depending on the age, it is a kindergarten or a school. Choosing a preschool is a difficult and responsible moment, because it is important that the child is comfortable, has friends nearby, the first independent social experience is positive, and the child receives high-quality educational services, the necessary corrective and developmental, psychological, and, if necessary, medical and rehabilitation support. Preschool age is an extremely important period for a child's development. You want to choose the best option for your child, taking into account family requests and circumstances, in order to create favorable conditions for adaptation, so that your son or daughter goes to kindergarten with pleasure and there is no need for a further change of educational institution. First of all, parents turn to specialists of inclusive resource centers for advice, look for information on Internet resources and consult with parents of other children. To help parents and colleagues better navigate, we offer a brief description of education options for children with hearing impairments that exist in our country today. We consider it positive that there are options for obtaining an education, which provides an opportunity to take into account the needs of each child and the wishes of parents. For children with hearing impairments, such variability is especially important in view of the different needs, which depend on the leading means of communication between the family and the child (the language of communication is verbal/sign language), the requests of parents, the specifics of rehabilitation (hearing aids, support of specialists, the approach, according which previous training took place) and the state of auditory perception, individual characteristics of the child's development. We present a brief description of the existing options for obtaining preschool education for children with hearing impairments, which are currently implemented in Ukraine. Each of the options has certain features, the originality of the organization and corrective and developmental support. The comparison criteria are: the programs under which children study; specialists working in the institution; specifics of correctional and developmental support; options for continuing education after finishing preschool; language of learning and communication.
