Our 2025 Classes
Help your child soar into success!
Our in-person, multimedia classes use story and play as a springboard for learning!
We are sad to share that Soaring Starts will be closing soon.
We are so immensely grateful to everyone that has put their trust in Soaring Starts in these last 4+ years.
While our school partnerships will continue through the 2025 academic year, our weekly class offerings below will end with our current semester, with all public programming ending on Saturday, April 12th. We invite you to join us for a few more special classes at the dates remaining available below, and to read more about our closing in a letter from our Founding Director here.
Please also consider joining us at the Mothers of North Arlington (MONA) Monthly Social at 11am on Saturday, April 12th at Faith Lutheran Church to say "see you later" to our team and celebrate all we have done together. This free event is hosted by MONA for its members. MONA has been integral to our success, as well as an incredible and well-respected resource for Arlington parents for decades. We highly encourage you to check them out.

Embrace your child’s natural curiosities in this caregiver/child class! Each day, we will use story as a springboard for music, movement, and multi-sensory activities to explore our world. Each day’s schedule is the same to develop comfort and trust in the routine, while each day’s activities vary greatly and are themed around the day’s story. Our play encourages caregiver/child bonding, language acquisition, and motor development as we explore animals, shapes, colors, counting, and so much more! Come join in the fun to see what we’ll discover together!
