Peace and quiet for your littles, peace of mind for you. Let your kids enjoy their days in the safety of our countryside environment.

Before/After School Care
Located on the line for Temperance Elementary/Amherst School district and Tye River Elementary/Nelson School district, I am able to care for kids from either school.
​
Before and after school care includes breakfast, snacks, and homework help, and is charged weekly.
Large Space
- Daycare takes place in a large, clean farmhouse built in 1903.
- Their space includes three large rooms of an open plan protected by baby gates, enough space for everyone to run and play on rainy days. -5 bedrooms means everyone gets their own space to nap in.
​
- Outside we have just under 6 acres
- Large fenced in yard and a playground with a paved flat driveway
- Flower and vegetable gardens for kids to learn and play in
- Beautiful mountain views and a river, with walking access to cows and horses.
Montessori Style
Instead of fully structured learning I use each child's personal interests to introduce new materials and activities to help pique their interest and make learning fun. This style of learning helps foster independence, creativity, and self exploration that keeps them wanting to learn for the rest of their lives.
​
- Calm, inviting, organized atmosphere
- Sensory play
- Free choice
- No TV (unless we're using it to learn)
- Lots of time outside
