The studio is located about 4 miles from Wellesley Square, inside the NorwoodCommerce Center on Endicott Street. In light traffic, the drive is typically 10–12 minutes.During busier times—especially late afternoon—the drive can be closer to 15–20 minutes,depending on where you are in Wellesley and how traffic is moving through the mainroutes.

In lighter traffic, the most direct route is usually:

Route 16 (Washington Street) toward Westwood
Connecting to Route 1A / local roads into Norwood
Then a short drive to Endicott Street

During rush hour, many families find it easier to:

Avoid the busiest stretches of Route 16 through Wellesley Center
Take back roads through Wellesley Hills / Dover Road or Cedar Street toward Route1
Then connect into Norwood from there

The goal is simple: keep the drive predictable and low-stress—especially when you’retraveling with a newborn or young kids.

Many sessions take place at nearby locations like Lake Waban or Elm Bank,depending on the season and the look you want.
