Pregnancy & Postpartum Support Group Join us for this ongoing, face-to-face support group whose members understand what you are going through! They understand the highs and lows, the sleep deprivation, the joys, the pressures, the role shifts, the challenges and even the fears associated with this perinatal period. Babes in arms welcome, but no toddlers please, if possible. This group is a judgement free zone. If you are running late, come anyway! If you are still in your Pajamas, come anyway! Baby crying and won’t stop fussing, come anyway! We all understand that getting out of the house during the perinatal period is difficult but come anyway! This is time for you to take care of YOU. During the group we will combine brief education about mood and anxiety disorders that can get in the way of enjoying your family forming journey, along with support group time. There will be resources provided and lots of time to give and receive support from other group members. NO REGISTRATION REQUIRED About the group leader: Andrea Glover, LCSW, PMHC, has a private practice in Scarsdale, and specializes in perinatal, reproductive, maternal, and menopausal mental health.

Little Readers: Prek 4s

Fri, Sep 18 · 3:00 PM

The Bunny Hive · Scarsdale

Little Readers is designed to support young learners as they begin their journey to becoming confident readers. Through a structured, research-based approach to early literacy, children build essential foundational skills such as letter-sound recognition, phonemic awareness, decoding, and early word reading. Our curriculum blends explicit literacy instruction with engaging, hands-on activities that make learning to read both meaningful and fun. In a supportive environment, children practice blending sounds, recognizing high-frequency words, and developing early reading comprehension skills while building confidence as emerging readers. As their skills grow, students gain independence, strengthen their focus, and develop a love of reading that will support their success in school and beyond.
