How to Navigate the Schedule Here's a quick breakdown to help you understand what you'll find under each tab... We use a company called Sawyer to do our bookings. A lot of other companies use this software, so you may already have an account! But if you don't, no biggie ... 1. You'll initially be prompted to make an account through hisawyer.com. 2. Then you'll be prompted to register your child. The good news is, once you've done that, from here on out we'll have that child's information. * But if you sign-up a sibling later on, you'll just have to use the "Add Child" feature & update your account with his/her information. *Easy enough, right? Drop-ins = Activities that can be purchased on a session-by-session basis- no extended commitment. Semesters = Any recurring weekly class. Camps/Events = Any 1 time event or "camp" that is multiple days in a row. Appointments = Any 1-1 sessions that are being offered. Parties = You can see what some of our Party Options are & then it will allow you to fill out an "Inquiry" form so that we can get back to you! * Filling in this form will not necessarily guarantee the exact party date you've requested, but we'll be in touch ASAP to discuss! Gift Cards = Buy a gift card that can be applied to any class, camp or party at The Nest!
