Overview

The Treehouse: a Forest Garden School is a Waldorf-inspired early childhood education program dedicated to nurturing young learners aged 6 weeks to 6 years, including infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergartners. With a mission to foster holistic development through nature-based experiences, the school uniquely blends certified indoor classrooms with an immersive outdoor environment, allowing children to thrive in both settings.
