Education, connection, and mindful play from birth to four.
Since launching in 2022, we’ve brought over two thousand families together in green spaces around Palm Beach County to connect, learn and play. Our unique programs, all taught by early childhood experts, are designed to equip you with the support and skills critical to this phase of life while improving early childhood outcomes.
This September we opened our first brick and mortar at 485 Seventh Street in West Palm Beach! There, we have a storefront filled with our favorite toys, books and care products and a spacious classroom with programs Monday through Saturday!

"ZenHippo is so unique and special. Initially, we had nothing to compare it to, but after being away this summer and attending other classes, it made me appreciate just how exceptional it is. The classes, environments, tools and teachers are all so thoughtful and creative."

"The most valuable thing for us is having a structured learn/play environment around other children, since our son is not in school yet. Having a social space for him to play in a beautiful location was wonderful!"
