Sure, we call it “Mommy and Me” but that’s just because we’re fans of alliteration! The fact is, every child is different, every family is different, every situation is different, and every expectation is different. Our students attend Club Classes with parents, grandparents, nannies, etc. Any adult caregiver is welcome to serve as your child’s designated adult for a Club Class. Since 2004, we have been fine-tuning our Tadpoles, Turtles, Frogs, Toads and Preschool Practice curriculums, tailoring our program to the strengths and challenges of every student we encounter. Club Classes take place in our central classroom, (the Clubhouse!), which is equipped with padded floors and age-appropriate play equipment designed to aid in the sensory development of little ones.
Every Mommy and Me Club Class includes time-tested activities that encourage motor skill development, provide opportunities for socialization and growth, enrich the sensory experiences of our learners, and are tons of fun to boot! The classes within this curriculum can be taken independently or as a sequential program—each level is designed to build upon the one before, for those who make an early commitment to the development of their child.
But wait…there’s more! All students enrolled in one of our Club Classes are welcome to join us for our Open Library & Play hours and Fun Friday drop-in STEAM classes.
