Our Teachers
Maria Newland has been teaching since graduating from Lyndon State College in 2014. Over her past 10 years of teaching preschool, she has worked at a progressive, trauma-informed school, a more traditional childcare, and a local forest school. Using what she has learned from these very different places, she has created an at home preschool that is loving, nurturing and empowering for young children as they navigate their last few years before heading off to elementary school.

Location
We are located in the beautiful Northeast Kingdom in Vermont. Our driveway is right off of Vermont 114 in East Burke, while the school and playground are set back a safe distance from the road. We have a large classroom space and a natural playground outside. We also have 11 acres of forest to explore.
