Foster friendships and decompress

Playgroups offer a warm, supportive space for both children and parents to learn and grow together. Children build social skills and develop essential emotional and cognitive abilities, while parents connect, share insights, and gain a deeper understanding of their child’s development—all in a fun, welcoming environment!

This group is for children between 2 1/2-6-years-old. We will meet 9:30-10:30AM Fridays at Compassionate Roots in Noblesville. I’d love to have you join our community!

What parents are saying

Rose is incredibly kind and gentle, especially when introducing new ideas. My son and I can't wait to see her every Friday morning!

Krissy H.
Beyond her kindness and welcoming presence, she is a wealth of knowledge about child development and what kinds of parenting techniques are most effective for each stage. What a gem she is!

Rachel B.
Navigating the toddler stage is hard, so having Rose in our back pocket has been a gift.

FAQs

What's the structure of your playgroup?

I guide children through a variety of activities: process art, group games, nature-based play, and movement activities. I try to strike a balance between having a plan and being observant of the needs of the children on that given day. This is called ‘guided play’ and research demonstrates it’s how children learn best!
Who is leading these classes?

Rose—that’s me! I’m the founder of Bud and Blossom Kids and have 8+ years of experience working with young children and their families. I blend my expertise as a developmental therapist and former Montessori educator to help children learn through hands-on, nature-based play! Read more about my background.
How many children are in the group?

Group size is capped at 12 children to keep a close-knit feel and ensure that everyone gets the personalized attention they need.
Can my child's sibling come with us?

Siblings are always welcome to join our playgroups. Babies who are not yet walking may attend free of charge. Once they’re on the move, they can officially join in at a special sibling rate—enjoy 10% off their registration.
What's the price for playgroups?

Registration will be $225/child for an 8-week session. If you’re registering multiple children I’m happy to extend a 10% discount for each additional sibling.
What if my child is shy?

All personalities are welcome! Playgroups are a great opportunity for more reserved children to step out of their comfort zone, try new things, and make friends. I’m mindful to encourage children to engage, without pressuring or shaming. I believe in meeting them where they are.
What happens if we miss a playgroup meeting?

Things come up—I totally understand! If you’re going to miss a playgroup session you can: 1. Offer your spot to a friend 2. Request a credit towards the next session (limit 1).
How is this different from free meet-ups?

Free meet-ups typically lack structure; kids freely play and adults chat.
My playgroup is thoughtfully designed to support each child’s development and learning. I utilize my background in early childhood education and expertise as a Montessori educator to meet each child where they are, and provide an appropriate amount of challenge.
