It Takes A Village


ECFE Classes / Parent Education -
ECFE Fall 2025

For Parents of 0-2 year olds.

It takes a village, but where do I find my village? This provides a warm and supportive space for parents of children ages newborn to two years. This class is designed to bring caregivers together to share the challenges of parenting during the early years. Together, we’ll explore common parenting stressors that are on your mind—while building a community of support and understanding. A welcoming space to connect and recharge. Through open conversation and shared experiences, you’ll gain tools to navigate this stage with confidence, knowing you’re not alone. Because raising a child truly takes a village, and your village starts here.

Registration will be open until the day of class.

Instructor

Mary Jo Volkman


Hello, my name is Mary Jo Volkman, ECFE Parent Educator at Brookside School. I’ve had the joy of supporting families through Early Childhood Family Education for over 30 years. During that time, I’ve led a variety of classes—from Babies and Toddlers to 3–5s, special topic parenting sessions, and family events. It’s been a true privilege to walk alongside parents and caregivers during these important early years, forming lasting connections and witnessing the growth of so many children. I look forward to creating even more meaningful memories in the year ahead!
