Summary/Abstract: Modernization of the system of pedagogical cooperation with parents of preschoolers and younger schoolchildren logically determines the creation of an inclusive educational space in the family with an emphasis on the formation of readiness of children with Down syndrome for life. Modern scientists N. M. Bibik, O. O. Bila, O. V. Gayash, O. V. Chebataryova, and Z. M. Shevtsiv rightly single out the family unit in the context of the dominant source of complex social influence on the pupils of the specified target group. It is about the formation of a harmonious personality of a child with Down syndrome, which is formed only under the condition of creative interaction of all teachers and family members. From this it becomes obvious that the competent cooperation of educators, teachers and their assistants must be optimized in terms of timely selection and updating of various ways, innovative technologies, methods, techniques and means of psychological and pedagogical cooperation with parents of pupils with such a complex nosology as Down syndrome. The article highlights the peculiar features of the complex interaction of the staff of the preschool and primary education institution with families; the system-forming components of the author's model of informational and educational work of teachers with parents of special children in the context of the above-mentioned diagnosis were clarified. In the presented format of practical-oriented research activity, the author's informative and educational program of applied partnership with parents of children of a special target group – "sunny children" is substantiated and logically structured.
