Baby Peppers

 

"The best part was sharing ideas and resources with other parents. Learned about songs, activities, books, places to take my baby, and getting around Seattle." (we'd just moved to the area.)

"It was wonderful to develop relationships with other moms in the area. I liked watching all the babies develop at their own unique pace."

Baby Peppers is a place where group participants meet, share, and learn in volunteer-facilitated sessions. Each meeting includes time for sharing parenting highs and lows, followed by a group discussion on a topic related to the adventure of parenting. Meetings also include break time for informal socializing and connecting with other parents, time for singing songs to the babies and learning games to play. 

Baby Peppers is open to all families with babies 5-12 months old when the group begins. Some of the families have participated in a PEPS Newborn Group, but many are new to the PEPS community.

All parents are welcome at Baby Peppers sessions.

Cost

Fees for an eleven-week program (spring, fall, or winter quarter) are $155 per family.  Fees for the eight-week summer quarter are $120 per family.

Payment due at time of registration; however, if you are requesting a scholarship, please fill out the registration form then email carim@peps.org before making payment so that your scholarship application can be reviewed and the scholarship amount applied. Your payment can be refunded if you cancel at least three weeks before the group begins. If a Baby Peppers group does not meet its minimum enrollment, as rarely happens, we will cancel it - in this case, you could either choose a different group to attend, or receive a full refund.

Scholarships

PEPS wants to serve EVERY family that registers for a PEPS Group. Financial hardship should never be a deterrent when considering joining PEPS. We happily provide income-based scholarships in for 20-75% off fees, and full scholarships in special situations.

Requests for scholarships will be possible once you select the session and location of your group.
