Cactus Day Camp

Cactus Day Camp offers a full-day, traditional summer program in Paradise Valley, AZ, specifically designed to provide an emotionally and physically safe, non-competitive environment. The camp focuses on fostering independence and a sense of belonging, making it an ideal setting for children who thrive in a supportive, low-pressure atmosphere where safety and friendship are the top priorities.

The program features over 20 diverse activities, including swimming, archery, rock wall climbing, gymnastics, crafts, dance, and team sports. This variety allows campers to explore new interests and develop social skills through structured play and group engagement. Each week concludes with a special camp-wide event on Fridays to celebrate the campers' achievements and community bonds.

Available for durations of 2, 4, 6, or 8 weeks, the camp provides a consistent five-day-a-week schedule. Families are encouraged to contact the director, Karyn Miller, via email or phone to ask specific questions about accommodations, discuss individual needs, or schedule an appointment to ensure the camp is the right fit for their child.
