ABOUT US
OUR PHILOSOPHY:
We believe that teaching children how to be thoughtful,
respectful, and creative are some of the most important things
we can do as role models. By interweaving themes of teamwork,
communication, and imaginary play throughout our classes, we
strive to help nurture a more conscious and creative generation
of kids.
Mama & Me recognizes the importance of all parenting roles and
family structures, which is why we welcome all moms, dads,
grandparents, caregivers, and other extended family members to
participate in our classes with their little ones.
OUR STUDIO
GOING GREEN:
Mama & Me has made a commitment towards becoming a
sustainable business leader. We made a conscientious choice to
go green with our studio design by installing a floating cork
flooring and using no VOC paint throughout. These design
elements contribute to a healthier, more hypoallergenic, indoor
air quality for our families and little ones.
Additionally we print our brochures on recycled paper, with
veg/soy based inks and use recycled paper products whenever
possible. We've installed a 16 foot plexi-glass wall, to eliminate
the paper used in our art classes.
SHOE-FREE:
We are a shoe-free studio! We would like to keep our
environment as clean and sanitary as possible for the little ones.
As you enter our studio, please slip off your shoes and leave
them in our mud room, immediately as you enter on the right.
We recommend that your child wear some type of rubber soled
sock or slipper during class for traction.
SNACK POLICY:
Due to the number of children with food allergies, we ask that
you please refrain from providing snacks to your child within our
studio. Instead we recommend that you visit one of the lovely
places to eat downstairs (ULA Cafe or Bella Luna).
OUR CLASSES SCHEDULE
ARRIVAL/DEPARTURE:
We ask that you arrive no sooner than 10 minutes before your
scheduled class, and leave no later than 10 minutes after your
class has finished. This ensures that our teachers have adequate
time to prepare for classes and clean up afterward. We host
open play times (creative playspace) throughout the week for
those who wish to come and play and enjoy our space.
ART CLASSES & PAINT:
We use washable and non-toxic paint for all of our art classes at
Mama & Me. However, depending on the color and fabric of your
clothing, the paint may not wash out entirely. As a precaution
we advise both parents and children attending our art classes to
wear old, dark colored clothing as our paint may stain.
PARENT PARTICIPATION:
Parent participation is a crucial part of enhancing your child's
learning experience in our classes. During class, we ask that you
focus on supporting your child and engaging in the class
activities. We ask that you limit your adult conversations within
class and save longer conversations until after your class has
finished.
REGISTRATION AND PAYMENT
METHODS OF PAYMENT:
We accept all major credit cards and Paypal online. We accept
cash or check payments only in our studio.
REGISTRATION:
We offer a flexible approach that acknowledges the realities of
busy families, offering a mix of drop-in programs and multi-week
sessions. There is no need to register in advance for our drop-in
classes. You may register for our multi-week classes either in the
studio or online.
