Hi! We’re Claire & Lauren! Welcome to The Inspired Treehouse!

You probably have questions...


Over the past week, we’ve been thrilled to hear from so many of you with questions and comments about our developmental play group model. We love sharing more about what we do!

Any time you’re considering something new, especially something that looks a little different from your current work, questions and concerns are likely to come up.

So we wanted to take a minute to walk through some of the most common ones we’re hearing right now.

You were asking...

🤷‍♀️ “Do I need business experience to do this?”

No. The training walks you step-by-step through the practical pieces of starting and running play groups. No business experience needed!


👋 “Do I need to leave my current job?”

Nope! You can run play groups as a small side project alongside school-based or outpatient work.

That’s how we got started!

In fact, running groups like this is the perfect summer side-gig for school based therapists looking to expand their experience and make a some money too!


💵 “Can you actually make money running play groups?”

For sure! Running play groups can provide a great source of additional income.

The training walks through simple pricing structures and practical considerations so you can design a model that works for your time, your community, and your goals.


🔩 Inside the training, you'll find answers to all of the other "nuts and bolts" questions like:

"How do I find a space to run my play groups?"

"How do I get people to sign up?"

"What does a typical play group look like?"

"How do I handle scheduling?"


Starting something new can feel intimidating. But the truth is that most pediatric therapists already have the most important pieces:
• an understanding of child development
• experience facilitating, modifying, and adapting play-based activities
• the ability to connect with kids and families

Rooted in Play simply gives you the framework for turning those skills into something that enriches and supports kids in your community in a whole new way.

🌱 Rooted in Play includes:

• A 1-hour on-demand training
• A workbook to guide your planning and implementation
• Ready-to-use templates for logistics, registration, and organization
• A marketing kit with Canva templates for flyers, brochures, and business cards
• 600+ pages of activity plans and printables for gross motor, fine motor, and sensory play
