The entire ground level of her home is dedicated program space, which includes indoor and outdoor space with a well established garden designed as an outdoor learning environment. A spacious indoor classroom space is well lit with hardwood floors. The environment and all the resources available, allow the children to be free in a form that they can trust and understand.

Peer collaboration and modeling are strong aspects of learning in each program day. With mixed aged friends, each child learns to relate and collaborate with those that are older, younger, or their same age.

Kindness, grace, and diligence are traits our program holds dear.
