Parent Discussion Series

Parent discussion series

The Creative Clubhouse offers a monthly series to the community. Experts in varying fields of childhood development speak on topics that can support families throughout their child’s development journey. Held both in person, and over zoom families that attend get to speak directly with experts and have their questions answered. They are given tools and information about all the ways to support children at home and in school. Discussion series topics range from self regulation, navigating attention seeking behaviors to toilet training and everything in between. We are proud to be a resource for our community and to support local families through this amazing service we offer.
