Frequently Asked Questions

Wander Nature School is an early childhood education program that  emphasizes outdoor, nature-based learning. We integrate environmental education into our curriculum, allowing young children to explore and learn in natural settings. 

A typical day starts with free play, followed by outdoor exploration and activities such as a nature walk in the woods, playing at some of our enrichment stations like our mud kitchen, or participating in a guided activity. The day includes a BYO snack/lunch, story time, creative play, and reflection time. 

Our program is curated for children ages 2-5

$190 per week, payable on Mondays before drop off.

Yes. We offer a 10% discount off one sibling's weekly rate.

No, we do not allow caregivers to stay with their children during Nature School sessions. We find that children acclimate better to the  environment and activities when they get used to a drop-off routine.  However, we understand the importance of staying connected, so  caregivers are welcome to text or call us to check in on their child  during the day. Our staff is always available to provide updates and  ensure that your child is having a positive experience. 

Yes. Wander Nature School is a mostly outdoor program. We believe children are resilient and benefit from as much time outdoors as feasible. However, we understand that sometimes there is a need for a break indoors. We also stay indoors in cases of inclement weather. Indoor time is 100% screen free.

No. For children that are potty trained, or are currently training, we have a private
"wild" or camp potty area for when we are outdoors and access to our indoor bathroom as well.
