Spring 2026 Parent-Child, Thursday Class
Spring is here! Join us at Westbrook Nature School as we marvel at the sprouting spring season with our Parent-Child Spring Program for caregivers and children, ages birth to three. Weekly outdoor classes will include imaginative and free play in our beautiful outdoor play yard and yurt, songs, movement and finger plays; seasonal crafts; nature walks on our trails; and wholesome snacks.
Date: Thursdays, March 26th and will run through June 4th. (No class on 4/16, Spring Recess and May 14th Professional Development)
Time: 9:00 am – 11:00 am
Cost: $360 – 9 weeks at $40/Class
Deposit: $120 (Due upon filling out your child’s Procare account to secure your space in class.)
Group Leader: Ms. Lauren with Ms. Ava and Ms. Tara assisting
Additional Payment Information:
After your deposit, the remainder of your balance is due Friday, March 20th.
The tuition for our Parent-Child Program includes one adult and the first child. We charge an additional $10 per class to cover craft and snack expenses for a participating sibling, age 12-months or older. We understand that other school calendars differ and sometimes an older unregistered sibling may need to tag along. We ask that you email us prior to class to inform us. The same charge applies. We charge no additional cost for children under 12-months.
A 2.9%+0.30 processing fee will be added on to any debit or credit card payments. A 1% processing fee will be added to all ACH Bank Transfers. If you would prefer, we accept cash or checks made out to ‘Westbrook Nature School’, with no additional processing fee.
We ask that payment be made in full by the start of the session. Westbrook Nature School offers payment plans and financial assistance for families experiencing financial hardship. Reach out to us for more information (info@westbrooknatureschool.org). We believe it is every child’s birthright to have access to nature education.
We understand that plans change! However, last minute cancellations make it challenging for us to manage our waitlist. Refunds made by request are available up until 5 business days prior to the start of the program. Beyond that, no refunds will be given unless the spot can be filled from the waitlist. A $25 processing fee will be deducted from all requested refunds.
Please note as a small non-profit we cannot pro-rate or offer make-up classes for any missed classes due to illness or travel.
Communication + Important Details:
Delays and cancellations can occur, especially at the start of our Spring season. We ask that all families make sure the cellphone listed on their child’s Procare account is correct. We will communicate any delays, closures or important information through Procare SMS text alerts or DialMyCalls voice messages. We will offer make-up classes for any cancelled classes at the end of the season.
We love to meet grandparents (and other family members) here at Westbrook! We ask that you notify us ahead of time if you are bringing any additional caregivers to class with you. Please email or call us, as we need to first confirm that we have space to accommodate them. Thank you of being mindful of this.
If you are unable to attend class due to illness or travel, please send us an email or Procare message so we can let our teachers know!
Spring weather changes drastically between March and June. Please check our Handbook for tips and be sure to dress both you and your child appropriately for all the weather. Typically, we recommend layering in early spring, as temperatures are still cool in the morning, as the temperatures rise families transition from winter boots to spring rain boots.
We are so excited to explore the wonders of the growing Spring season with you and your little!
