Let’s talk Family classes
Child with Parent/Caregiver
With optional friends, family, siblings
In family classes children learn within the the comfort and guidance of family & friends. Toddlers and young preschoolers are a lot like a kangaroo joey- they need connection with & support of caregivers and then jump out of the metaphorical pouch of the family to explore the world all around independently.
We can provide... Mixed-age classes for all ages and all siblings, mixed for a specific age range, OR classes that focus on one age.

Often I provide a Mixed age/age range for families wanting to be with friends of a specific range add alter to those in class. Because of this I also adapt the curriculum to the group of children in class.
Some of the most common are
•Mixed-age 0-2 (Level1) 6month to 2yo
•Mixed-age L2 (usually Level2 curriculum) 1-3 year olds
•Mixed-age L3 (Level3 curriculum) 2-5 year olds
*Mixed age all age (use a mix of curricula as needed for who is in the class)
*Siblings are welcome in many mixed-age L2 & L3- if you are unsure please contact me.
