Parent/Caregiver & Child

Thursdays and Fridays, 9-11 am.

The Parent/Caregiver & Child Class offers a nurturing, community-oriented experience designed for children from infancy to three years old, along with their caregivers. This class provides a gentle introduction to Waldorf education, focusing on developmental play, imitation, and the natural rhythm of early childhood. Children engage with the world of language and nature through songs and puppet stories, while their fine and gross motor skills are nurtured through movement journeys, finger games, snack preparation, hands-on "work & play," and outdoor exploration.

Caregivers are invited to participate in a simple craft while children explore independently. The program fosters a calm, unhurried environment that supports sensory development and emotional well-being. Caregivers also have the opportunity to learn about child development, gentle discipline, and the importance of establishing daily rhythms. Additionally, the program offers a space for caregivers to build supportive connections with one another.

Meet Our Teacher

Amy Shor received her bachelor’s degree in sociology from the State University of New York at Stony Brook. She earned a certificate in Waldorf early childhood education and completed the coursework for a master’s degree in Waldorf education from Sunbridge College in Chestnut Ridge, New York. Amy has taught at the Waldorf School of Princeton since 2003, primarily leading nursery and parent-child programs. Ms. Shor’s deep knowledge of Waldorf education has helped many parents manage the challenges of raising children. Her warmth with the children and ability to build community both in and outside the classroom make her classroom an inviting gateway to the school.
