Oh yes please!! Then we get to support you when the baby arrives too. What an honor for us!

Yes, that's true. However what you are paying for is access to a range of experts who can help you with your specific questions and challenges. We all have them. You are paying for an environment that is prepared particularly for you and for your child. I facilitate the discussion as a  skilled parent coach who is able to ensure you are supported with compassion and protection.

If finances are making you hesitate then please come and trial the class for free or make use of the pay what you can space. Simply select that option on the registration form and no questions will be asked.

Each week you’ll be prompted via email to consider a topic for the coming circle.Think of something to share around that topic, whether it relates to you or someone else, it doesn’t matter.

Each circle is an hour and a half. You may bring lunch with you or you will be offered something to eat or drink. You’ll select materials for your child or allow them to explore. Conversation is not structured for the first twenty minutes or so. At a natural lull we will go around the circle to share on that week’s topic. Advice is only given if directly requested. For the last twenty minutes of the circle, families tend to break up into smaller groups to socialise.

Previously we have included speakers on sleep, nutrition, somatic therapy, family and marriage therapy, pelvic floor therapy and infant massage. If you have any speakers or topics you would like to suggest then please do so. I’d be so happy to consider them.

Whenever there is space, classes are limited to 10 children, you may join and leave the program at any time. Exiting does require two weeks notice.  If the program is full I will update the website and registration form to reflect that you’ll be joining a waitlist.

If circle needs to be cancelled then an extra week will be added at the end of the year. Usually a substitute teacher is called in if I am not available. If a family needs to miss a circle then they are welcome to make it up by attending the program on the other day of the week, whenever they can make that work. Refunds are not given for missed circles.

If it makes sense to move to the Toddler Program during the course of the year then I will see how I can do that. Families joining the infant circle will be given priority for the Toddler Program.

Yes! If there is an Open House playgroup scheduled then I prefer you attend that however if there is space available you are more than welcome to come and sample a circle. It will be charged at $20.

Circles are charged, in advance, at $100 for every five weeks of the program. The first five weeks are charged at registration.

These details will be included in your orientation email also.
