2025 Annual SCVC Speaker Event

There are a lot of big feelings packed into our kids' little bodies...and they tend to express them all smack in the middle of the grocery aisle. So what's a parent to do?

Join us for this fun, hands-on workshop focused on helping your child manage their big emotions. This workshop will be presented by Kristene Geering, an author, parent educator, coach, and teacher with over 30 years experience. 

When: Thursday, February 13, 2025 6-8pm 

Where: Los Gatos Parent Nursery School, 15 Lyndon Ave, Los Gatos 

We welcome teachers, directors, and parents from all of our preschools of dinner and an engaging presentation and discussion. This presentation will also be available via Zoom. Please RSVP by Monday, February 10 here.
