Developing Capacities for Being with Children from Birth to Three

Helping Children Meet the World Through Their Sense of Touch

November 15 & 16, 2024 in person at Sophia’s Hearth

What is the Sense of Touch?

Join us for the first of our Four Foundational Senses series of presentations, conversations, and sensory experiences.

This conference is designed to help us deepen our understanding of the Sense of Touch and renew our commitment to becoming healthy models for the children in our care.

Children bring educators challenges and opportunities for growth. If we learn to meet those challenges with compassion and interest, we can help children continuously take steps towards becoming and, at the same time, enrich ourselves as educators in our lives and journeys.

Join us for this unique opportunity to enhance your sensory awareness and educational approach!

Conference panelists Katherine Scharff, Jane Swain, Michelle Brooks and Paula Sousa will share their knowledge and experience of working with the sense of touch in the classroom.  Additionally, Heather Church will lead us through a process reflecting not only on the conference content, but also on experiences we have as caregivers and teachers of young children.

There will be multiple opportunities for participants to have touch experiences.

Conference Fee is $150. Limited scholarship funds are available.
