Caring for young children is deeply meaningful — and incredibly demanding. This class is designed to support primary caregivers (parents, guardians, grandparents, foster parents) with realistic tools to reduce stress, prevent burnout, and prioritize their own well-being.

Through guided discussion and practical strategies, caregivers will learn how to care for themselves while caring for others — because your health and happiness matter, too.

This class connects you and your child with the garden, through hands-on activities as you learn where food comes from, learn about nature, and make fun nature crafts.

This nurturing support group is designed especially for mothers in the early stages of parenthood. Through thoughtful conversation, guided activities, and shared experiences, participants are invited to connect, reflect, and grow together. The group offers a safe and supportive space to explore the emotional, physical, and mental transitions that come with welcoming a new baby..

In this class, the emphasis is on the joy of creation rather than the final product. Each session is designed to spark curiosity and encourage self-expression as children engage in hands-on activities like finger painting, nature collages, texture explorations, and more.

Happy Hour: Family Playtime is a warm and welcoming space where parents and children explore the joy of free play — together.

This interactive experience helps little ones build important social skills while giving parents the chance to connect with one another, share experiences, and step into their child’s world through play. It’s a perfect blend of bonding, support, and fun — no agenda, no pressure, just quality time.

Join us for an enriching sensory adventure in Wonders of the Desert, where young children (ages 2–5) explore the natural world through play-based, developmentally appropriate outdoor activities. Guided by a trained nature-based educator, each session offers three to four fun hands-on experiences—like digging, building, crafting, and observing—designed to spark curiosity and build early learning skills.

All participants will be given a Family Activity page in English & Spanish to extend the learning and fun at home.
