Our Mission
Our mission is to understand and support each child’s unique developmental profile by achieving the highest level of professional learning for our staff, building a community where families feel respected and connected to the wider community, and cultivating sustainable business practices and environmental choices for everyone who works and plays here.
Nature Based
We provide every child with engaging opportunities to learn through play in the outdoor environment.
Emergent Curriculum
(Child-Led & Play-Based!)
We guide each child using an inquiry-based approach to learning through hands-on experiences and investigations based on their deep areas of interest.
Encourage Risky Play
We help each child develop a positive self-image, believe they are capable of doing hard things, and encourage them to challenge themselves with an appropriate amount of risk.
Caring For Our Community
We foster the respect of all people and our natural environment to honor the diversity in our world and the peoples and animal systems that inhabit the world with us.
Promote Emotional
Well-Being & Social Skills
We help each child learn about and acknowledge their own feelings and the feelings of others, and to learn how to create positive social interactions with peers and teachers.
Family Involvement
We offer support to the families of our children through resources, conferences, referrals, parent gatherings, and family input.
Families are invited to join us for classroom visits and seasonal program events!
