Mommy and Me Classes: You are Your Child’s First Teacher

As a parent-child teacher, I am doubly blessed–I get to be in the company of little ones, so new to the world, and be a part of the profound journey of love and learning.

There are three guiding principles that inspire my classes:

Playgroups are an outdoor classroom.

The children are the curriculum.

You (Parent) are your child’s first teacher.

These ideas permeate the play-based, developmentally-appropriate curriculum that meets the needs of the children and families who are there. It enriches our time together.

Parent-child classes occur during a most precious, magical time, which also happens to go by in a blink.

I honor and value my time with families that come to Mommy and Me. It is a chance to slow down.

Parents grow and adapt, they have humor about the ups and downs, and confidence in their choices. Playgroups inevitably become warm family groups.
