GROWING WITH AYA
Baby & Toddler Playgroup
A calm Montessori-inspired small playgroup for babies & toddlers up to 15 months.
What it is
A gentle 45 minute play experience designed for early development, exploration, and connection. Caregivers stay present while babies explore at their own pace.
What to expect
The session begins with a few minutes of free exploration, allowing each child to settle in naturally, followed by a gentle hello song.From there, the flow continues intuitively with songs, a short book, or material exploration, always allowing space for uninterrupted play.

Can’t make it?
It’s understandable that schedules can be tricky with little ones.
It would be lovely to find a time that works best for you.
A little more about the session
The environment is thoughtfully prepared with simple, developmentally supportive materials that invite curiosity, movement, and independent exploration.A space where little ones can explore and begin to socialize at their own pace, while remaining in the quiet security of their caregiver’s presence.Sessions may vary slightly, but always include songs (including one in another language for language exposure), free and/or guided exploration, a short book, and plenty of play and connection.Each session also offers a soft pause in the day for caregivers—to slow down, connect, and be fully present with their little ones.
