💙 We invite you to come to a session of Soul Care Time with April Watters. The end goal of soul care is that you will flourish in the Spirit of the Lord, with increased capacity to function as His adopted child, in the fruits of his Holy Spirit alive in you.

April uses an eclectic blending of therapies such as E.F.T. and spiritual disciplines such as prayer to pour into us and decrease stress levels in the body.

Come meet and play games with some of The Fostering Collective's certified babysitters! 

We understand that finding a certified sitter can be a challenge and then feeling comfortable leaving your children with someone you don't know can be an even greater challenge.
We want to help connect you! Families and our certified sitters will come together to play games and get to know each other. When it comes time for you to call on a sitter, you can feel comforted to know familiar faces and names to add to your list of supporters!  
(This event is for families and sitters.)

Got big behaviors? Do you want to break down walls and work towards building connection and healing our families together? Playfulness disarms the fear response in children.  It helps build connection, teaches social skills, problem solving, communication and life skills.  Laughing swaps the cortisol in our bloodstream with highly sought after chemicals in the brain: dopamine, oxytocin and endorphins. Dopamine can enhance learning, motivation, and attention.

Join us this summer for our “Play It Out” sessions.  Each session has been designed to address issues our families face in the trenches of dealing with big behaviors.  Self regulation, interception,  felt safety and sensory issues are just a few topics we will tackle together.  We have 10 total sessions with 5 different topics each week.  Each session is limited to 20 people so RSVP ASAP. It’s going to be a great summer filled with lots of fun and making great memories.
