ROSE GARDEN EARLY YEARS CENTRE
Parent & Child Groups - Honouring the wonder of Childhood - Supporting Your Parenting Journey
Our Parent and Child groups offer a relaxed, nurturing space where families can grow together—honouring the magic of early childhood while offering meaningful support to parents and carers. Held weekly in our Victorian house and natural gardens at Christchurch Gardens, each group is led by a qualified Steiner Waldorf early years teacher. Children thrive in a calm environment with a predictable rhythm, where free play, movement, and rich sensory experiences gently nourish rather than overstimulate.
For parents and carers, it's a chance to pause, connect and share the early years journey within a warm, supportive community.
An under 5's refers to a child from birth up to their fifth birthday (0–59 months old)
Children must be accompanied by a parent or a trusted adult (e.g. grandparent, aunt, uncle or carer)
Parent & BABY (0-6 months) craft Groups
Join us for a relaxed, friendly meet-up. While babies play and explore, adults can unwind with a gentle craft and a warm drink, enjoying a little creative time in a peaceful, welcoming space.
Parent & BABY (6 months- pre walking) Groups
Join us for a warm and welcoming session where babies aged 6 months to pre-walking age can enjoy playtime in our cosy playroom. Sessions close with a story and nursery rhymes, creating a special time for little ones to explore and roam while parents have the chance to connect and unwind together.
Parent & Child Groups
- Under 5's
(Aimed at children that have taken their first steps- 5 yrs, younger siblings welcome)
Join us for warm, welcoming sessions where unhurried, creative play unfolds both indoors and beneath open skies. We begin outside, then come together midway to share a seasonal craft or activity. After tidying up, we enjoy a wholesome snack before closing with stories and nursery rhymes. It’s a special time for children to roam and imagine, while parents find connection and calm.
