OUR STORY
OUR STORY
Ahana was created as a reflection of the diverse communities our families come from. The name represents African, Hispanic, Asian, and Native American cultures — honoring the roots, stories, and shared values that shape how families raise their children.
While Ahana is inspired by these communities, our space is open to families of all backgrounds who value respectful learning, cultural awareness, and whole-child development.

“This is the first virtual space where my child wasn’t just watching a screen. They were moving, responding, talking to other kids, and actually engaged. I loved that an adult was guiding the group the entire time.”

“My child usually loses focus quickly, but the sessions were short, intentional, and interactive. It felt calm, structured, and respectful of their age. I didn’t feel like I had to hover the entire time.”

“I appreciated that this wasn’t overstimulating. No ads, no chaos, just kids connecting and learning how to interact with each other in a healthy way.”

“What stood out to me was the conversation. The kids weren’t just muted and listening, they were sharing ideas, answering questions, and being challenged in a supportive way.”
