Child-Directed Meal Time
We support children in learning how to listen to their bodies, and to have a positive relationship with food. We encourage children to feed themselves, and lead the process as they begin their life-long journey with food. Teachers support children in this learning and are active partners with the children and their caregivers.
Following the Child’s Lead
We believe that every child learns best in an environment where they can grow at his or her own rate. We contend that all forms of play are critical to the proper social and emotional development. We follow the child’s interests when creating curriculum and use their passions to guide and scaffold lessons and activities.
Community Engagement
We believe that parents, teachers, and administration are all one team, and that working together to connect home and school is crucial to a child’s development.
We have multiple opportunities for care givers to participate in their child’s education, as well as community building events.
Along with monthly happy hour gatherings and monthly school events, we have committees with dedicated members from our families and community.
High Quality Infant Care
We treat each infant as an indiviual – capable humans with their own personalities, needs, and motivations. We honor each child’s individuality and encourage them to explore freely without restraint or interruption. Infants foster their love for the world and for learning by exploring open-ended materials.
Certified Wildlife Habitat
Because of our commitment to sustainable gardening, landscaping and conscious planning, wildlife is able to find quality habitat (such as food, water, cover) on our campus.
We are certified through the National Wildlife Federation, as well as the Texas Conservation Alliance.
