Parent-Child Classes


Step into a warm and welcoming space designed to nurture both young children and their caregivers. Our Parent-Child classes reflect the gentle rhythms of a Waldorf Early Childhood classroom, offering a peaceful environment where little ones can explore the world through imaginative play, storytelling, and hands-on activities.

Caregivers are invited to connect with one another, share in meaningful discussions about child development and parenting, and create seasonal crafts that bring the beauty of nature into everyday life. Guided by an experienced Waldorf teacher, these classes provide a supportive and enriching introduction to the magic of Waldorf education—for children and adults alike.

 

Parent-Infant

Expecting Parents to 18 months

This class provides a nurturing atmosphere to explore early childhood's beautiful and natural unfolding stages. Parents learn simple songs and games to play with their children and develop their ability to quietly observe and interpret children’s movements, gestures, and vocalizations. The class aims to build on parents’ intuitive knowledge, helping them better understand how to be with their children and let them be.
