Good Inside (separating)


Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) / 0-5 Multi-Age Options -
2025 Winter & Spring

Ages: 0-5 years.

Parent and child will separate for part of this class.

Join us for this SCHOOL YEAR LONG class! Are you looking for specific and actionable strategies to help you stay calm, connect with your child, build their confidence and work through challenges? Join the Good Inside class to learn parenting approaches based on the philosophies of Dr. Becky Kennedy, author of Good Inside. Children will explore our classroom with their caregivers, and then continue to play with our early childhood staff while caregivers separate for discussion with a licensed parent educator. All ECFE classes are taught be a licensed early childhood teacher and/or a licensed parent educator.

This class will separate first for the parent discussion.
