One Day Helene Programs

We know how stressful and all consuming this experience is and in brainstorming ways we could be of service to our community, we realized that the best thing we can do is provide a safe, nurturing space for your kids to connect with nature, other kids, and regulated adults who can be present and joyful for them.

As the situation is dynamic, we’re assessing each week what to offer for the following week and so we’re going to keep the specifics for each week current in our registration portal.

The first week went GREAT and overwhelmingly families wanted more so we are expanding the programming for subsequent weeks.

Please sign up for our newsletter to get weekly announcements about the next week’s schedule.
