Chatterpillars was founded on the belief that caregivers want to feel deeply connected to their babies, while also finding community with others in the same stage of life. As a mom of three, I know firsthand that no one hands you a handbook when you leave the hospital. That’s why Chatterpillars offers classes where caregivers can learn about communication development without getting lost in overwhelming Google searches, discover practical play ideas to use at home, and share joy and laughter with their little ones. Nothing brings me more joy than seeing a baby light up at a caregiver who has paused to connect in a playful way. It’s an honor to witness these moments, and the families who join us inspire me just as much as I hope to empower them to feel confident supporting their child’s development at home.
