Important Details About Joyful Parenting and Developmental Movement Courses

Joyful Parenting and Developmental Movement are courses that are designed to be taken by an adult student together with a child.  Please note the following rules:

1. The registered adult can be a parent, grandparent, stepparent, foster parent, child’s caregiver, or other guardian.
2. The registered adult must accompany their child at Joyful Parenting or Developmental Movement class meetings (online and in- person courses). Children are not permitted to attend alone and cannot attend any other in-person NOCE courses.
3. Up to two children can be registered per adult.
4. The same individual adult is expected to attend each class meeting; the student in each course is the registered adult.
