703 Livernois Ave, Ferndale, MI 48220
Founded in 2011, Nature’s Playhouse was established as a sanctuary for parents seeking to connect with their inner wisdom. It is our belief that parents know what is best for their children but many of us get distracted from that inner knowing by techniques, gadgets and ‘expert’ advice. At Nature’s Playhouse, we thrive to support parents and caregivers, by encouraging them to objectively observe their children, engage respectfully, to trust themselves and to find joy in the process. We, including our children, are always doing the best we can with the knowledge and the resources we have at the time.
Nature's Playhouse offers a variety of health and wellness classes and support services. In addition,
Nature's Playhouse provides space for community support groups free of charge.
Check out their offerings!
