Parenting with Purpose

Join us on the first Friday of every month for Parenting with Purpose — a monthly series of parent education classes led by early childhood educator Shawna Poole. Rooted in the respectful RIE approach, these sessions offer real-world tools and thoughtful guidance for raising confident, connected kids.

Whether you’re navigating toddler tantrums, potty learning, or how to build independence, each class gives you space to reflect, learn, and connect with others in the parenting journey.
