Parent & Child Classes

​Our Parent & Child Program fosters growth and provides resources for parents and their children up to age four. It gives caregivers and children the opportunity to come together in a supportive and nurturing atmosphere to explore the wonders of the first years of life.  The class is led by an experienced Waldorf teacher and is filled with meaningful work as a way of modeling activities for imitation by the children. The children enjoy open-ended play and join together for puppet shows, songs and finger plays.  This class gives parents an opportunity to discuss child development, parenting issues and Waldorf education with an experienced Waldorf teacher.

​There will be designated moments for sensitive, loving and respectful observation. These are opportunities to become aware of the children’s interests, motor skills, social interactions, problem-solving skills, as well as their ability to learn through play. 

Each class meets for 8-weeks, one day per week for 2 hours.

Applicants will be placed on a first come, first served basis. Please note, siblings are welcome and the cost is per child. Tuition rate is 50% for the second child and no additional charge for siblings that are infants under six months old.  Please register promptly as space is limited. 

If possible, we try to arrange classes so we can focus the class session on a particular age range. Class meets once/week on the selected day of the week. You may sign up for more than one session or day/week. If a class term session has started and there are fewer than eight children enrolled, you may register for the remaining sessions on a prorated tuition basis.​
