Our pedagogy draws on our years of childcare experience, our educational backgrounds from the University of Illinois in Early Childhood Education, and is influenced by Montessori, Reggio, and Waldorf teachings as well as our mission. We have taken the best of each of these impressive theories and woven them together to create an extraordinary experience.

At Sprouts, we are using art & nature as the foundation for learning, providing environments and projects that promote creativity and a love of nature, and offering extended uninterrupted play periods with open-ended materials for developing wild imaginations, independence, and confidence.

We believe this non-traditional alternative to typical preschool programs is the best possible first school experience there is.
