Gather Parent-Child Classes


Gather Parent-Child Classes

Our playgroup classes are designed for children ages 2 - 20 months and are 1.25 or 1.5 hours long. Our parent-child playgroups are created as beautiful spaces for you and your child to come, play and connect with other children and parents. These classes focus on creating a supportive community where parents can engage with their children in a respectful and enriching way. Parents come together as a community over our 8-week sessions, with one of our facilitators supporting them at every stage of their parenting journey.

We provide three different parent-child classes based on age and developmental needs:

  • Parent-Infant Classes for infants 2 months to 8 months old

  • Parent-Mover Classes for movers 8 months to 16 months old.

  • Parent-Toddler Classes for toddlers 16 months to 24 months old.
