Our gentle relationship-based approach allows for the time and space to inherently foster children’s natural development.
What can you expect from The Nest?
* Indoor and outdoor environment designed expressly for infants and toddlers (6 weeks to 3 years).
* Thoughtfully chosen open-ended materials, books, and wooden toys to encourage scaffolded learning.
* Primary caregiver with a 1:4 ratio for our youngest infants, with gradually increasing group size for toddlers.
* Organic, unprocessed freshly-prepared vegetarian menu (whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables).
* Support for breastfeeding mothers, organic infant formula provided upon request.
* Cloth diapers provided through diaper service.
* Zero “infant equipment” and media-free space.
