Stay Connected Parent-Tot Drop-In, a Family Resource Program, is an inclusive free program that offers a stimulating play group for children birth to six.
The play groups meet indoors as well as in local community parks. It is a place where parents can take a break from the home routine, connect with other parents and caregivers and have fun playing with their children. Families can access community resources, parenting information and one on one support in a warm and inviting space. Child care providers and the children they care for are also welcome to attend the Drop-In program.
What you can expect from the program
You will find a well-equipped and safe playroom, with quality toys and equipment intentionally chosen with the developmental needs of children 0-6 in mind. Parents will meet caring and qualified staff who create space for parents and caregivers to connect with their children and increase their parental capacity.
Tea and coffee are served and a healthy vegetarian snack is provided at each Drop-In group session.
Additional programming such as Mother Goose Story and Rhyme groups, Infant Massage, Circle of Security Parenting, cooking groups and Ukulele groups.
We recognize the diverse needs and abilities in our community and welcome feedback from families. The program is responsive to community needs and families are encouraged to share their skills and ideas with staff as well as in the program.
