☀️ One of our most common questions for summer camp — what should my child bring?! Here are the essentials:
👚👖 Extra clothes for bathroom accidents or messy art projects & activities. Please also send diapers and wipes if your little one is still potty training!
🥪🍎 A healthy packed lunch in a container your child can learn to open, as well as, eat independently. We help with containers, but cannot feed any child. Be sure to pack a spoon or fork if they need one and that their lunch does not need to be heated or refrigerated. We often eat outside so lunches should be packed to sustain the summer heat.
🩱🩳 Bathing suit for swimming or water activities. We frequent splash pads and have designed swimming time at 🏊
💧🥤 Refillable water bottle. Be sure to label with your child’s name!
😎☀️ Sunscreen spray to share! If your child requires something specific due to skin sensitivities, allergies, etc., please send in and let us know 😎
Summer camp starts on 6/1 and we are SO excited!! Don’t forget to register and reserve your child’s space before weekly rates increase 💫

Ima. Mama. Nanay. Ummi. Mami. Amma. Mommy. Mom.
Across every language, every culture, every corner of this earth — there is a word that holds the whole world inside it.
It rises in us like a tide: love, longing, the deep need to be seen, held, and known. Mothers — and all who mother — are the first home we ever have.
And what a living, breathing home they become.
Shaped by every stage, every scraped knee and broken heart, every late night and quiet triumph. The job doesn't end. It only deepens.
No one was meant to do it alone.
The village shows up — in a father's steady hands, a grandmother's kitchen, a teacher's well-timed words, a friend who just knows. They fill the spaces love points to but can't always reach.
So today, pause.
Honor the one who carried you — and honor your village too. Call someone. Hug someone. Sit down together and breathe.
You are raising the next generation of strong, kind, brilliant humans.
That's worth celebrating — all of you.
