Led by Jocelyn Waite, an experienced Waldorf teacher, mother and grandmother, this class meets once a week to provide a sanctuary of safe play for your toddler and an oasis of calm and friendship for parents and caregivers. Each class provides:

  • The same daily rhythm to nurture the children’s security and familiarity.

  • Circle time with songs and a simple puppet play.

  • Warm, homemade organic bread for snack time (dietary restrictions are honored).

  • Outside play in our fully-enclosed play yard, with sand pits, swings and climbing structures to develop large motor skills, balance and coordination.

  • Simple toys that stimulate open-ended play and develop imaginations.

  • Adult enrichment, including reading material on parenting and child development.

  • An opportunity for parents to seek advice and support from one another, as well as benefit from the teacher's extensive experience in early childhood education.

For children 12 -36 months old, with a parent or caregiver. Rolling admissions as space allows.

*Children should be walking to begin class. Tuition due in full at the start of each session.
