Our Teachers

At Growing Cubs Cottage, our incredible team of teachers — many of whom are parents themselves — nurture each child as if they were their own. They believe in fostering development, independence, and a love of learning through a play‑based curriculum. Each week, the children enjoy hands‑on crafts and exciting science experiments designed to spark curiosity and growth. With personalized care, encouragement, and a deep understanding of childhood, our educators create a safe, joyful atmosphere where every child can thrive.

Philosophy

At Growing Cubs Cottage, we believe that every child deserves to be seen, valued, and celebrated as the unique individual they are.

Our philosophy is rooted in play-based learning. We honor children as natural explorers with their own interests and rhythms. Through imaginative play, weekly crafts, and hands-on science experiments, children engage in joyful discovery and build the foundational skills they need for lifelong learning.

We foster independence by offering opportunities for choice, self-help, and exploration.

Our educators view each child through the lens of empathy and care—many bring their own parental insight into supporting emotional, social, and cognitive development. They form trust-based relationships, guiding children with patience and kindness as they navigate feelings, friendships, and new challenges.

We see families as essential partners in the learning journey. Through open communication and shared celebration of milestones, we build a community where educators, children, and parents grow together in mutual respect and support.
