Navigating the Early Years

Presented by Family Play Time

Join our free facilitated pop-up sessions

The first 6 years of a child's life are crucial for their future development. Parenting in the early years can be challenging for parents and caregivers, but we can help! We invite parents and caregivers of children ages 0–6 to join us for free pop-up sessions where we'll learn, converse, and connect in a warm, safe, and relaxed environment.

In these 1-hour workshops, families will learn about a relevant early years topic facilitated by our Family Navigator and engage in meaningful conversations—all while enjoying quality playtime with their little ones.

Navigating the Early Years Sessions provide:

• Parental education through facilitated sessions relevant to an early year development topic
• Opportunities to foster friendships and meet other families
• Quality play-based activities for children ages 0-6
• Inclusive play areas, materials, and resources that embrace various cultures
• Personalized assistance for families to meet essential requirements and access to specialized services 

For more information, or if you are interested in running free pop-up sessions in your community space/agency, please email karla.hagel@ymcasibc.ca.
