About Joyful!

We are focused and committed to diversity, equity, inclusion, and access for all families. Rooted in trauma informed care and relationship building. As a family and caregiver you know your child best and are your child’s first teacher! We value and encourage each family to bring their own culture and perspectives in all classes.

Joining us in a yoga class and/ or workshop helps all of us grow in community together. The purpose of Joyful Kids and Families is to strengthen our relationship and communities through yoga, staying present, and learning together.

Thank you for being here! My name is Lexie. I have worked in early childhood for over 10 years with a background in trauma informed care! I believe families are a child’s first teacher and play the most important impact on their children’s lives.

As a family advocate and early learning educator I am here to support families and children by providing learning opportunities and encouragement. Information and self awareness are powerful tools!

Example of questions asked during our workshops!

When your child is having a big feeling? (a tantrum) What is your response as the adult? What is your child asking you? Telling you? Needing from you?

How do you know when your child needs support… verses when they need encouragement to be independent? What are the signs to look for? How does is feel for you when your child starts to need more independence?

What questions/ interest do you have?
