At our nursery, we've cultivated a vibrant and supportive community of families, children, and dedicated team members who share a deep passion for nurturing children's growth through democratic learning. Our experienced team of teachers, educators, and artists take a bilingual approach, with democracy, freedom, and respect at the heart of everything we do. Children thrive in our setting, enjoying the independence to explore both our indoor and outdoor environments throughout the day. From the stimulating experiences at our allotment to the endless opportunities for adventure in nearby Alexandra Park, learning truly comes to life here.
