Welcome to PioPio, where we strive to provide a fun and meaningful experience for children and caregivers alike. As a Latina-owned business, we are passionate about creating a welcoming space that fosters connection, exploration, and learning in exciting new ways.
Our philosophy centers on the belief that every moment shared between a child and their caregiver is an opportunity for joy. By providing simple yet meaningful activities such as finger painting, singing, and dancing, we encourage language development and self-expression.
We recognize the importance of building a strong sense of community and togetherness. That's why we are committed to providing a safe and nurturing environment where families can come together, create lasting bonds, and make unforgettable memories.
Our mission is to spark the imagination and creativity of children and their caregivers, empowering them to express themselves through art. We believe that art is not just a form of expression, but a gateway to infinite possibilities. Our approach to art is lively and playful, creating an environment where children can experiment with textures and colors. We celebrate the uniqueness of each child and encourage them to express themselves in their own unique way. By integrating Spanish as a fun tool for discovery, we provide a dynamic experience that combines language, music, laughter, and messy play. We believe that through the immersion in a context that promotes language development, we can ignite a passion for learning and self-expression that will last a lifetime.
Our vision is to create a nurturing and enriching environment for children and their families through sensory art classes that promote bilingualism, creativity, and social skills. Our goal is to provide a safe and welcoming space where children can explore their senses, express themselves through art, and interact with their peers while learning two languages. We strive to foster a sense of community among caregivers, creating a support network for parents to share experiences and advice. Our classes are held in parks to provide exposure to nature, promoting physical activity and a love for the outdoors. We believe that multisensory experiences enhance memory and learning retention, making language acquisition more effective. Through creative play and art activities, we aim to prepare children for success in school and future learning endeavors, while strengthening family bonds. Our classes encourage open communication between parents and children, fostering a positive parent-child relationship. Our ultimate goal is to inspire and empower children to become confident, creative, and bilingual learners.
Hola! My name is Alicia, and I am a passionate advocate for child development. With over 20 years of experience as a preschool teacher and nanny, I have seen firsthand how important it is for children to have a supportive and nurturing environment in order to thrive. This experience inspired me to create PioPio, a program that is designed to help children reach their full potential.
Outside of my work, I find solace in nature. Whether I am hiking through the mountains or walking along the beach, being in nature helps me feel grounded and inspired. As a photographer, I capture the beauty of the natural world through my lens, hoping to share that magic with others. Another passion of mine is cooking and baking. I love the process of creating something delicious and nourishing for loved ones, filling both their stomachs and their hearts.
