BEYOND THE BASICS

A LIVELY GROUP MENTORSHIP PROGRAM WITH HARI

Are you ready to deepen your work teaching Parent-Child classes?

Or take the first steps toward launching your own practice?

I’ve worked with many Parent Educators from around the world and I keep hearing:

  • “I don’t have enough experience to structure my classes”

  • “I don’t have the confidence to charge a proper fee”

  • “I’m overwhelmed with the logistics, the cost and that keeps me stuck”

  • “I don’t have the experience to navigate group dynamics” 

If you are looking to refine your approach or you are just starting out, this unique mentorship program is designed to inspire, engage and guide you every step of the way.

WHY JOIN THIS MENTORSHIP PROGRAM?

After studying with the renowned Magda Gerber and after 40 years of teaching Parent-Child classes, I invite you into this intimate, transformative space. 

In this program you will learn:

  • To structure a powerful and beautiful class

  • Develop your expertise in group dynamics

  • Deepen your skills so you can create a sustainable livelihood

  • Become a part of the movement, the generational shift towards respectful responsive parent - child relationships

  • Develop your own unique approach and goals

This is your opportunity to gain inspiration, receive expert support, and connect with other like-minded educators committed to making a positive impact on families.

Whether you have an outdoor program, a permanent space or rent weekly, I’ve done it all!

By the end of this program you will have the knowledge and confidence to create a space that nurtures children, parents, and caregivers.

This class offered a terrific foundation for me as a new parent-child teacher. Hari has SO MUCH wisdom to share - and she is willing to answer all the questions we ask during class while also offering a structure to pass on things that she thinks are important for us to know. I learned a great deal both from Hari and from my fellow participants. I highly recommend this course!

I didn’t think I had what I needed to run a Parent-Child class. This workshop helped me see that I do have what I need. It gave me confidence that I can do it. I feel so much more able to plan and prepare to begin my own parent-infant class after taking this professional development course. I look forward to taking more of Hari’s courses and professional development offerings in the future.

Hari has such a wealth of experience and insight. She brought us into the nitty-gritty details of forming and maintaining a parent child class in such a thought provoking and inspiring way. The participants were a diverse group of class leaders from around the world that brought wonderful questions and their own meaningful experience.

Hello, I'm Hari

I know what it’s like to start from scratch, to wonder if you’re doing it “right,” and to navigate the sometimes tricky dynamics of working with families.

After working with hundreds of families, this mentorship program is my way of sharing everything I’ve learned — the wins, the mistakes, and the small but powerful shifts that make all the difference.

I want to help you step into this work with clarity, confidence, and a deep understanding of how to create a space that nurtures children, parents, and caregivers.

I’m excited to begin this journey with you!

I’m here to kickstart your confidence and provide support.
I hope you can join us.
