Other details to note about our programming. You’ll see events listed with the following keywords:

  • Drop in - no registration required. Just come on by!

  • RSVP - we ask for folks to pre-register so we have a sense of attendance

  • In-person - event takes place in-person at the listed time and location

  • Virtual - event takes place online, via Zoom or Google Meet

  • Hybrid - event is both in-person and virtual. Attend whichever way works best. RSVPs will be emailed the meeting link in advance.

Parenting the ADHD Brain
Apr
30

Parenting the ADHD Brain

HYBRID event: join in-person or remotely via Google Meet

This interactive workshop, led by certified ADHD coach Rebecca De Ornelas, offers a science-backed blueprint for understanding the ADHD brain and executive function. We'll skip the generic advice and dig into why standard strategies fail and what actually works for motivation crashes, dread loops, and emotional regulation.

What we’ll cover:
- The ADHD Brain Blueprint: Understanding the mechanics of executive function challenges.
- Live Exercises: Experience ADHD mental clutter and the shift from chaos to focus.
- Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD): Why the nervous system overreacts to minor situations.
- Real Tools: Science-backed approaches to motivation and regulation.
- Support for ADHD Parents: Specific tools for the 40% of parents who also have ADHD.

This isn't about what you're doing wrong. It's about what you haven't been told.

NOTE: please register for either “in-person” or “remote”

Camp Finder Hackathon

POP UP EVENT - the first official Dad Guild Hackathon

Are you a techy-ish dad?
Is searching for the right summer camps for your kids, ones that fits the exact ages and dates needed, an annual stressor?
Well, do we have a fun project for you.

A rad community dad has built an awesome camp finder search portal tool. But they need some help tweaking it and making improvements before it is ready to be totally published. So Dad Guild is excited to host our first ever hackathon, where dads will all meet up to help work on the project together. (And also eat tacos! Dad Guild will provide a taco kit dinner from Moe’s)

What is a hackathon? - It is a focused event where techy folks meet up to work collaboratively on a project.

Do I need to be a tech wizard to participate? - No. Naturally, having some tech skills (like coding) helps but it is not necessary to participate. There are plenty of digital but not super technical tasks participants can contribute to.

Interested? Then RSVP today! https://online.traxsolutions.com/dadguild/main#/search

Sunday Morning Fam Jams

The Guild Hall is officially open for families to enjoy Sunday morning from 9:30am - 11am. From 9:30 - 10:00, father, musician, and early childhood educator Alex Baron facilitates a music jam for all family members. We’ll have some instruments on hand for you and your littles to enjoy! Following the musical portion of the morning, families are invited to spend the next hour enjoying a casual playgroup in the space. Families had been hanging around afterwards anyways, so we figured we’d just make it official!

Programming is designed for children ages 0-3 years

Additionally, our good friends at Haymaker Buns downstairs will be offering $5 kids’ meals with any adult meal purchased to all playgroup attendees!

Playground Playgroup (Burlington)

Playground Playgroup (Burlington)

The weather is warming up, meaning it’s the time of year where we get back out on the playground! There are tons of amazing playgrounds in the area, but let’s be honest, it’s always more fun when our kid has others to play with, and there are other caregivers to chat with. Or at least attempt to chat with as we chase our little ones around. See you out there!

appropriate for children ages 3-5. Each child should be accompanied by a caregiver.
RSVP Required: https://online.traxsolutions.com/dadguild/main#/search
