Is Little Foot Right For My Child?
Little Foot’s Groups and Summer Camp is for all children! We aim to create an inclusive environment that allows children to feel strong, confident, and secure. Our emphasis on small groups with expert guidance allows every child to have a positive experience. We welcome children of all abilities and exceptionalities!
Why Choose Little Foot?
Small Group Setting: With limited enrollment, we ensure individual attention and a personalized experience for your child. A small group setting is crucial for children as it fosters a sense of security and belonging. Your child will feel more comfortable expressing themselves, asking questions, and forming meaningful connections with their peers. It also allows our staff the flexibility to tailor activities to the your child’s interests while promoting social confidence, emotional strength, and community.
Expert Guidance: Our experienced staff are dedicated to creating a supportive and nurturing environment for every child. Our staff bring a depth of understanding and experience that ensures activities are not only engaging but also enriching your child's social and emotional well-being. All of our staff hold advanced degrees or certifications.
Focus on Holistic Well-being: Our holistic approach addresses the emotional, social, and physical aspects of well-being and supports healthy emotional and social growth with an emphasis on empathy, cooperation, and resilience. Our groups use collaborative play and shared experiences to highlight the connections between our emotional world and our bodies.
Benefits of a Holistic Wellness Approach to Your Child’s Growth and Happiness:
Fun and Enjoyment: Social groups offer children opportunities for play, laughter, and enjoyment, promoting happiness, relaxation, and stress relief in a supportive and nurturing environment.
Confidence Building: Through participation in various activities and achieving small milestones, children will build self-confidence and belief in their abilities.
Emotional Strength: Our program includes activities that promote emotional expression and resilience, opportunities to understand others, and learn coping skills.
Friendship: Making friends is crucial for your child’s growth as it fosters social, emotional, and cognitive growth. Through friendships, children learn important skills such as communication, cooperation, and empathy. Making friends helps them understand different perspectives, negotiate conflicts, and develop a sense of belonging and acceptance. Friendships also provide an opportunity for shared experiences, laughter, and companionship, which will positively contribute to their self-esteem and social confidence, resilience, and overall well-being.
Increased Empathy and Understanding: By engaging with friends in social groups, children develop empathy and a deeper understanding of others' perspectives, feelings, and experiences.
Enhanced Self-Esteem and Confidence: Your child’s self-esteem and confidence will grow as they receive support, encouragement, and validation from their peers.
Conflict Resolution Skills: Your child will learn how to navigate conflicts, negotiate disagreements, compromise and find solutions with the guidance and understanding of our staff.
Peer Learning and Collaboration: Our groups will give your child the chance to learn from friends, share skills, and collaborate on tasks and projects.
Sense of Belonging: Your child will be a part of a community of caring and supportive friends and staff where they can feel acceptance and understanding which is at the heart of social and emotional well-being.
