This program is created for children who can benefit from a small, safe, and nurturing environment in which we will have fun while practicing skills of emotional-expression and mindfulness.

This program can also be helpful specifically for children who struggle with emotion-expression or emotion-regulation, and could use a boost of confidence and compassionate guidance.

While this is not a therapeutic process, the program has therapeutic elements.

It is not tailored for specific or severe cognitive or behavioral issues.

  • All children must be potty-trained. Restroom is adjacent to the class space.
