Parent-Toddler Class

Breathe, Unplug, Connect

For young children, parent-toddler classes are a gentle, supportive way to start socializing with other children and exploring the world around them. For parents and caregivers, the classes are an opportunity to connect with other families, discuss parenting and Waldorf education, and learn more about their child by quietly observing them at play.

This winter, our Parent Toddler class will meet on Friday mornings, from 9:30am to 11:00am. The session is 10 weeks, from January 24 to April 4 (there is no class on Friday, February 21). Register here.

Designed for families with children who are 18 months to 2 years 9 months old, these simple, sweet, and playful morning gatherings are held in our school's cozy parent-child classroom and beautiful outdoor spaces. Daniella Baker, Marin Waldorf School's early childhood program director, will be leading the parent-toddler classes.

While children play, adults share a cup of tea and engage in simple seasonal crafts. We discuss parenting, share our experiences caring for young children, and learn more about the Waldorf approach to early childhood, which emphasizes wonder, imaginative play, and connection with nature. Join our sweet group of families this winter!

Cost is $475 for the 10-week session. Note: Cancellations subject to a $100 cancellation fee, up to 1 week before class starts.

Ms. Daniella first fell in love with Waldorf education in 1994, when she went to work for a Waldorf school in Mill Valley, CA.  She was enchanted by the beauty of the classroom and the thoughtful way this education was brought.  She went on to work with the little ones during and after school, and later did her Waldorf training.  She loves having the young children around and is captivated by how they meet the world around them.  Being a parent of two teenagers that went through Waldorf education, she wants to support the parents of young children help them to value each minute of these special years.
