Each afternoon at Sababa, your child will be welcomed from school and provided a healthy and delicious snack. They will then gather for z’man kehilah (community time), where they'll share about our day, give shout-outs, celebrate birthdays, and review our Hebrew words of the week. Next, they'll move into our peulot (activities), focusing on the specific weekly enrichment listed below. They will end each day with free play time both indoors and outdoors to unwind, get a little homework done, get their energy out, and build meaningful connections with one another before saying shalom (goodbye).

Financial Assistance
At Sababa, we believe every child deserves to be part of our kehillah (community). Rooted in the Jewish values of tzedek (justice) and areyvut (mutual responsibility), we are committed to making our program accessible to all families, regardless of financial circumstances. If cost is ever a barrier, please reach out to erica@sabababouldervalley - we are here to work together so every child can belong and be part of our Sababa kehillah.
If you feel inspired to live out the value of areyvut (mutual responsibility) by donating any amount to support a child’s time with us, please click the link below. We would be honored to receive any amount that would support a child’s experience with us.
