FAQ
How do I register?
To begin the process, simply call us or fill out the registration form linked on this page. Tell us which groups you’re interested in, and we’ll add your family to our registration list.
Submitting a registration request does not automatically enroll you in a program. A Coordinator will follow up with information about enrollment, waitlists, and next steps.
Yes! Thanks to funding from the Massachusetts Department of Early Education and Care (EEC), CFCE, local grants, and community partners, all of our family programs are offered at no cost.
Can I bring siblings?
That depends on the group. Some programs have space limitations, age requirements, or specific funding guidelines. If you’d like to bring a sibling, please let us know when you register and we’ll do our best to accommodate your family’s needs.
What if I can’t attend every session?
We ask families to plan on attending the full series whenever possible, as many groups build on relationships and experiences from week to week. If you need to miss a session or can no longer participate, please let the Coordinator know as soon as possible.
When will I hear from a Coordinator?
After we receive your registration request, a Coordinator will contact you with information about enrollment, waitlist status, and any next steps. Response times may vary depending on registration volume and program schedules.
