Most parents wait until things feel hard to get their daughter support.

And that makes sense.
You don’t want to overreact.
You assume she’ll “figure it out.”
You hope confidence will come with time.

But here’s what I see every single week working with girls in Westchester County:

Confidence isn’t built during the hard moments.
It’s built before them.

Before the friendship shifts.
Before the comparison creeps in.
Before she starts questioning herself quietly.

That’s exactly why my girls afterschool and school-break programs in Croton-on-Hudson are designed for elementary-age girls. not because things are “wrong,” but because this is the window where the foundation is formed.

In our programs, girls:
• practice using their voice in safe, low-pressure ways
• build emotional awareness before big feelings feel overwhelming
• learn how to navigate friendships with confidence and kindness
• experience belonging in a supportive, mixed-age community
• try, fail, laugh, and try again (without fear of judgment)

What we practice now becomes her foundation later.
And when middle school does get harder?
She doesn’t start from scratch.

✨ Winter Programs Now Open ✨
• Elementary Afterschool Girls Program (Mondays)
• Winter Break “Schools Out” Programs
• Middle School Girls Club (Wednesdays)

If you’re a Westchester mom who’s been thinking, “I want to support her before things get hard,” this is your sign.

Spots are intentionally limited to keep groups small and connected.

Middle school is when everything shifts…

friendships feel higher stakes, emotions get bigger, and confidence starts to wobble, girls start seeing themselves differently.

And while every girl is different, I see the same patterns year after year:

The girls who thrive aren’t the ones with perfect social circles or zero stress…
They’re the ones who have skills, support, and a safe place to practice being themselves.

That’s exactly why I designed the Middle School Girls Club.

Inside this small, intentional group, girls learn how to…
• Navigate friend friction without shutting down
• Handle anxious moments with tools that actually work in real time
• Trust their voice and speak up, even when it feels scary
• Build real friendships, not fake@ones
• Try, fail, regroup, and try again… without embarrassment

If you want your daughter to enter (or survive!) these middle school years with confidence, social skills, and a community that genuinely sees her — this is the space. A soft place to land each week, with mentors and girls she looks forward to being with.

Westchester County’s go-to Middle School Girls Club Wednesdays in Croton on Hudson this winter.
A few new spots available!

Raising a middle school girl in 2025 is NOT for the faint of heart.
One day she’s confident, the next she’s overwhelmed. One minute she’s talkative, the next she’s shut down & behind closed doors.
And you’re stuck wondering: How do I actually help her?

If you’ve been noticing…
✨ Friendship drama that drains her
✨ Self-doubt creeping in
✨ Anxiety around fitting in
✨ A sudden “I don’t know who I am anymore” shift
…you are so far from alone.

Middle school is a pressure cooker—social media, comparison, shifting friendships, identity changes, new expectations.
And girls don’t just need advice…
They need a safe, structured, uplifting space where they can practice confidence, connection, communication, leadership, and real-life social skills.

That’s exactly why I created the Middle School Girls Club…a first-of-its-kind, hyper-local space in Croton where girls can:
💛 strengthen real confidence (not the pretend kind)
💛 build healthy, supportive friendships
💛 learn tools for boundaries, communication, & conflict
💛 try new things without fear of judgment
💛 feel seen, valued, and understood
💛 become stronger inside and out

This isn’t “another afterschool activity.”
It’s the place where girls find their people, their voice, and their sense of self.
And every single week, I watch girls walk in unsure… and leave lighter, happier, and more grounded. & keep@coming back for more.

Winter Session enrollment is officially open.
If your gut has been telling you she needs something like this, she probably does.
Secure her spot in the Middle School Girls Club (Wednesdays starting 12/17 in Croton on Hudson) before it fills. 🤍 DM me or head to link in bio.
