Parent - Child Garden Classes
“We could have never loved the earth so well if we had had no childhood in it.”
-George Eliot
It takes a village to raise our children! These classes meet you where you are as a family and provide you and your baby or young child a natural and nourishing environment where you can feel supported as a parent, meet new friends, and find community!
Young children are full of imagination and wonder. To grow into strong, self-assured beings, we need to be loving observers, stay present and meet them where they are now, while gently guiding them on their path of becoming.
Outdoor Parent Child Garden classes are held outside in the woods, farms and gardens encouraging children to play, explore and find reverence for nature. Indoor Parent Child Garden Classes offer opportunities for social play, exploration and meaningful activities. Both experiences honor the young child’s natural imagination and will forces through movement, songs, puppet shows and seasonal activities. Parents will learn ways to intuitively guide their child, bringing more ease and warmth to their connection and allowing the parenting journey to be more inspired, more joyful and more harmonious.
"My son and I have loved each class we’ve taken with Ms. Somer. She creates a nurturing, calm, and yet magical environment in which the children are encouraged to be themselves, explore and learn to be a good friend. It’s a wonderful way to get to know other parents as well, and I can always count on Somer to provide sage advice when I have parenting questions or concerns."
-Sarah Bourla, mother of two
