RAIN OR SHINE,
We love engaging children with nature and the arts.
We strive to create a culture of love, learning, and respect for young children and genuinely believe every child is capable and competent.
Children learn about themselves and their world by exploring their environment and interacting with others. We’re intentional about fostering a genuine curiosity in children, and encourage them to discover through nature, awe and wonder of their world.
“Nature Pedagogy is an understanding of our sense of belonging to land, our sense of working with nature. There is a pedagogical shift when you move outside into nature…it’s learning with nature, not just teaching about it.”
Claire Warden
DID YOU KNOW?
A child’s brain undergoes an amazing period of development from birth to three – producing more than a million neural connections each second. The development of the brain is influenced by many factors, including a child’s relationships, experiences and environment. Our educators provide an important role in providing safe spaces where this development can be nurtured. We set children up for success by creating beautiful stimulating environments where children can grow through love and nurturing, positive attachment and supportive care.
“My grandchildren go here and I have no hesitation in recommending Nurture Through Nature. Beautiful surroundings only exceeded by the people who run it. Thank you.”
