Children and Teens at Kripalu

family on walkChildren must be supervised at all times and must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who is also on-site at Kripalu. Children’s programs meet for morning and afternoon sessions. Families are together at meal times, in the evenings, and overnight. Child-care services are available only for times when parents’ and children’s program schedules differ.

Children’s Housing Rates
(meals included)
Children and teens must be housed with their parent/guardian and in non-dormitory accommodations. Housing for infants and children 4 and under is free. The housing rate for children ages 5–12 is $30 per child per night. When children 12 and under are housed with one adult, the adult pays the single rate for the accommodation. When children are housed with two adults, the adults each pay the shared rate for their accommodation.

In addition to housing, children 12 and under pay the tuition for their program, if they are enrolled in a program. Please call Registration for more information about program and housing options for children.

Teens ages 16–17 may attend programs* or Kripalu Retreat and Renewal** accompanied by a parent or guardian in the same program. Program and facility use restrictions may apply. Teens pay adult tuition and accommodation rates and are housed with their parent/guardian in non-dormitory accommodations.
