We are so incredibly grateful for your kindness, patience and super-powers with our children. You have taught them some amazing things, from number skills to an incredible love of nature. Thank you!

Parent of Preschooler, 2022

My child is so excited to come in to preschool. I really do think it’s a wonderful setting with the most kind staff. She’s truly blossomed since being with you and I’m so proud of the confident little girl she’s becoming!

Parent of Preschooler, 2022


I love that he comes home and tells me all about his days playing outside and appreciating the natural world around him. Not all preschools offer what you do. For this you must be commended. I talk to other parents who have children in other settings and I know how lucky we are.
