Serving children ages 2–6, including Preschool, TK, and Kindergarten
Nature’s Lab serves children ages 2–6, including toddlers, preschoolers, TK, and Kindergarten.
Families choose Nature’s Lab because they want a small, relationship-rich, outdoor, bilingual school where children are known, supported, and invited to grow at their own developmental pace.
Our younger children build the foundation for future learning through play, movement, language, sensory exploration, social-emotional development, outdoor learning, music, art, stories, Spanish, friendship, and daily rhythms that support independence and confidence.
Our older children continue growing through the same Nature’s Lab values while gaining more opportunities for deeper thinking, early literacy, math, science, leadership, project work, and reflection.
Whether your child is beginning at age two, entering preschool, preparing for TK, or growing into Kindergarten, Nature’s Lab is designed to grow with them.
Looking for a Different TK or Kindergarten Experience?
