The Garden Environment
Learn & Grow
“Play Is The Work Of The Child”
- Maria Montessori
Play Based:
At The Garden, we prioritize the essence of free play in nurturing young minds. Our environment is meticulously crafted, forming what we fondly refer to as the 'prepared environment.' This space is not just a setting but an active teacher in itself. We have thoughtfully designed centers that encourage creative play, devoid of screens or battery-operated toys, allowing children to explore and learn authentically. Emphasizing the importance of natural materials, we integrate them into our play spaces, fostering a deeper connection with the world around us. Through this prepared environment, we enable children to delve into the joy of unstructured play, paving the way for holistic development.
“Time in nature is not leisure time; it's an essential investment in our children's health”
- Richard Louv
Outdoor Time:
At The Garden, we believe in the power of outdoor exploration. Our dedicated outdoor space is more than just a playground – it's a gateway to endless discoveries and joyful learning. Surrounded by nature, children engage in imaginative play, develop gross motor skills, and cultivate a deep appreciation for the environment. Under the open sky, friendships blossom, and creativity knows no bounds. Our carefully designed outdoor activities not only promote physical well-being but also enhance cognitive and social development. From exciting games to quiet moments of wonder, every outdoor experience is a stepping stone toward a brighter, more connected future. Join us outdoors, where every day is an adventure, and the wonders of nature inspire a lifelong love for learning.
“Every child is an artist”
-Picasso
Art Experiences:
At The Garden, we cherish the boundless creativity of young children. Our approach to art is all about empowering children to express themselves freely. In our nurturing environment, little artists are encouraged to explore various art forms, from painting to sculpture, using their imagination as the guide. We celebrate the unique visions of each child, providing them with ample opportunities to create without constraints. Through these experiences, children not only craft beautiful masterpieces but also build confidence, develop fine motor skills, and learn the joy of self-expression. Join us in cultivating a love for art, where every stroke and color come together to tell a story unique to each child. Let their creativity blossom at The Garden Daycare, where every child is an artist in the making!
“You may speak but a word to a child, and in that child there may be slumbering a noble heart which shall stir the Christian Church in years to come.”
-Charles Spurgeon
Ministry:
At The Garden, we believe in the transformative power of early childhood education. Guided by our faith, we see these impressionable years as a sacred opportunity to instill not just academic knowledge, but also enduring Christian values. Our mission is more than just teaching; it's about modeling godliness and love, shaping hearts and minds for a lifetime. We believe investing in the spiritual and moral development of young children is a calling worth pursuing with unwavering dedication and passion.
