Questions? Reach out—we’re here for you.[email protected]Currently, California does not have specific regulations or institutional oversight for outdoor education programs like ours. This means that we are not a licensed or accredited preschool, as existing guidelines primarily apply to indoor childcare settings. However, we are committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and enriching environment for children, focusing on hands-on learning and the development of strong emotional connections. Our approach is grounded in best practices for early childhood education, even as we continue to operate outside the traditional framework for indoor programs.
