A fresh take on childcare

We are an attachment focused, student led, play in nature based un-curriculum with an emphasis on seasonal, local, plant based nutrition education and yoga, meditation, and mindfulness as foundations for empathetic, independent, exploratory learners. 

At the heart of the Nurture Nursery's approach is the principle of secure attachment to child care providers. We always aim to create an environment in which children are bonded to their teachers. This roots their experiences in trust, which underpins every day, interaction, and adventure. Our littles trust that they can explore their worlds because they know that their providers are there to protect and support them. That feeling of security allows for more courageous and independent interaction with new information and stimuli. We, on the other hand, trust that our littles will guide us to organic learning moments as they are given the freedom to explore the world around them.
