No. On the Annual Plan: $300 is the recurring yearly fee. You can cancel your membership anytime up to 30 days before the next billing cycle. On the Payment Plan: $30/12 months will autorenew unless you cancel your membership anytime up to 30 days before the next billing cycle. 

Present Play is definitely not all about watching hours of videos in order to see results. When you consider the guilt-free supportive Facebook Group, expert sessions, the listening pods, the in person meetups... even if you utilize just one of the features - like the Facebook group or the listening PODS (video chats with other Present Players in your time zones) - just once in a while, you're totally getting your money's worth.

You definitely do not need to watch hours of video in order to be getting bang for your buck in Present Play. Videos range from 5-70 minutes long and you can listen to them while folding laundry, running or commuting - most of them do not demmand your visual attention. You can pick and choose the topics that are most relevant for you right now and you can disregard the rest - they're there for you when you're ready.  Just like joining a gym doesn't mean you need to utilize all the machines in order to see results - in Present Play you can find the things that work for you. 

Yes. Here’s how to give the gift of Present Play to someone you love:

Present Play is like Avital’s inner circle. You will have more interaction with Avital via our private Facebook Group (please be aware that she can't respond to every single Facebook comment), but she is most active in this group and holds LIVE Q & A sessions which are interactive! 

The weekly time investment varies greatly depending on your personal goals. It's up to you!  Even if you're watching one video a week - at about 10-20 minutes  - you're totally getting your money's worth! We do recommend aiming to log in at least once a week to keep what you're learning fresh and top of mind. But there's no guilt if you need to take a little break and come back later. 

If you want to be inspired from time to time at leisure, then enjoying just the free content on the blog is for you. 

You will receive weekly emails with links to videos, PDF's or audio in the members-only area. You can also download the transcript! So you can learn at your own pace and in your own style. All of the materials are easy to access and demand nothing from you. Plus we’ll be here to support you every step of the way.

Yes! It’s amazing when you can start out early – and although some of the information won’t be relevant just yet, you’ll be preparing for what’s coming next and learning from experienced parents. Plus you’ll get to avoid a ton of the “mistakes” the rest of us have made (or at least you’ll see them coming!)

Erm in a word – no. How each child plays is as unique as their fingerprints. Temperament, environment, attachment, personality, health, developmental stage… all these and more contribute to the content, cadence and character of a child’s play. 

Well yes… and no. We are going to be approaching fundamentals of PLAY - and play is relevant for all ages of children (and adults too!). There are several videos dedicated to the Pre-Teen age as well.

In Present Play there are over 50 different cultures, all the major religions, children and parents of all shapes, sizes, ethniticties and abilities. We have families with special needs, children with chronic illnesses, single parents, twins, LGBTQ families and every shade in between. We welcome and celebrate diversity - whether racial, neurological or religious. If you have a unique siutation (and we all do) or diagnostic lable - you will still find ideas that are applicable to you because mindfulness, peace, presence and play are helpful for all families. Might there be some content that isn't for you? Definitely. 

No. We will look at designing spaces and solutions in homes with and without storage, with and without a playroom, with and without a yard. All you need is a flexible, open mind and the belief that you can make it work.

Yes, there’s 12 month payment plan option for $30/ month. Your membership will auto renew annually unless you cancel 30 days in advance of your next annual billing cycle. When you choose the payment plan, you commit to 12 payments of $30 each year you stay.

Enrollment happens once a year and your upfront $300 membership tuition covers 12 months. Both payment options recur annually automatically unless you cancel within 30 days of your next annual bill date (the date that you join). You can stay for one year (request to cancel by April 1, 2020) or stay forever: Any member who stays for 5 consecutive years will unlock lifetime membership for as long as we’re running Present Play. And we’re here for the long haul. 

Every year we offer scholarship enrollments prior to the doors opening in May and we’re proud to offer scholarships to many members around the globe to make it a possibility for everyone who applies. We can offer no further discounts on Present Play after our scholarships have been granted, however if its beyond your budget at this time, please enjoy the vast amount of free videos, podcasts and articles that The Parenting Junkie offers. 

In order to provide the high quality content, continual support and true sense of community - we need to ensure the sustainability and profitability of our business.

Your tuition fees help us fuel our machine, so to speak. In order to continue to produce content, show up for our community and serve at the highest level we need to pay for technology, software, equipment, programmers, editors, all manner of freelancers, and of course support our small-but-mighty-team of work-from-home mamas. To do all of that and continue consistently for the long haul, we need to charge for our services, just like any other business.

You can use the chatbot on this page to write in questions, be sure to leave your email address in case we need to get back to you. You can also email support@theparentingjunkie.com we would love to help you out as quickly as we can.
