3 Readiness Signals Parents Often Miss, A gentle reflection for families considering overnight camp

$0.00

If you’re asking, “Is my child ready for overnight camp?” — you’re already doing thoughtful parenting.

This free, one-page reflection is designed to help parents slow down and notice what truly matters when considering camp readiness. Instead of focusing on confidence, independence, or whether your child ever feels homesick, this guide offers a calmer lens: how children move through discomfort and who they can lean on when they do.

Inside, you’ll explore three readiness signals that are often overlooked:

  • How your child recovers after hard moments

  • What happens after hesitation, not just during it

  • Your child’s comfort accepting support from other caring adults

This is not a checklist, and it won’t give you a yes or no answer.
It’s simply a place to begin — grounded, thoughtful, and pressure-free.

If you’re looking for deeper guidance on readiness, alignment, and how to choose a camp that truly fits your child, you can find more reflection and support in the Choosing Summer Camp Guide.

For now, trust what you’re noticing.
You know your child better than anyone.

WHO THIS IS FOR

  • Parents considering overnight camp for the first time

  • Families navigating uncertainty or mixed feelings

  • Caregivers who value thoughtful preparation over quick answers
