The Program


Ages

 

The Garden School is a licensed family childcare home designed for children ages 3 to 6 years of age. As in a family, children learn and play in a single mixed-age pod.


Daily Rhythm

 

Children learn practical life skills such as setting the table, sweeping, and baking. Ample time for free play is provided both indoors and outdoors. We have a 2 hour benchmark for outdoor time, rain or shine. Outdoor time includes playing in our garden as well as exploring in the community. Activities and materials that support all areas of development are available daily.


Meal Program

 

A nutritious snack is provided. Snack includes milk, a protein, and fruit or vegetable. Our menu is primarily organic and we have a deep appreciation for the meal-time experience.
