Young Lights: Bright Futures — Carers and Me!

Carers and Me is a fully inclusive program for young children of all abilities (ages 0–5+) and their carers. Hosted at our fully accessible community hub, Progress Place, this free weekly program creates a welcoming space where children and their carers can connect, play, learn, and grow together. 

We’re also thrilled to welcome Wanda, a Child Development Specialist, and Morgan, a Music Therapist from the Maritime Conservatory, who will each join us once a month. 

What to expect:

  • Interactive games and movement
  • Music, songs and sensory play
  • Arts & crafts
  • Special guests
  • And more!

No registration necessary. Everyone is welcome to join us at Progress Place for this community event.

Carers will have opportunities to: 

  • Build peer support networks and strengthen social connections
  • Access community resources and information
  • Learn about child development and advocacy
  • Connect with others who share similar experiences, fostering a strong sense of belonging
