Our team
Our educators guide, nurture and harness each child’s natural curiosity by forming meaningful, respectful relationships that allow them to develop an extensive understanding of the world around them.
To support best practices, we continually invest in our staff by providing professional development workshops to create and maintain a happy and supportive work environment.
All our staff work collaboratively and regularly gather to share, problem solve and celebrate as a team.
