Looking to get out of the house with your infant? Shorenorth Co-op Preschool is the place for you!!!

We are a supportive community for parents and their young children. Participants in the Baby ‘N Me class connect with other moms and dads, enhance parenting skills, and gain confidence in a safe, stimulating, green environment. While parents learn effective communication and child-guidance strategies, babies have fun engaging in parallel play and being exposed to a regular, familiar group of friendly faces.

A typical class includes discussion time to seek advice on challenges, and share joys and concerns; baby yoga and massage; music and movement; and unstructured play. Parents broaden their understanding of child development in areas such as feeding, sleeping, motor skills, language, cognitive changes, and social-emotional growth.

The Baby ‘N Me class meets on Tuesdays from 1:30-3:00 p.m. starting on September 10, 2013. Sibling care is available to parents of multiple children. Shorenorth is located at 816 NE 190th St., Shoreline, WA 98155. Contact us at (206) 440-1411 or www.shorenorth.com.
