To nurture in children their innate senses of wonder, curiosity and gratitude

To protect the dream-like state of early childhood as their caretakers by always striving to create an atmosphere of well-being, harmony and warmth

To foster in children and adults their connection to and love for the natural world and its seasonal rhythms

To build a community in which children’s minds, bodies, and spirits are nurtured at each stage of their development, and where adults and families are strengthened by their involvement.
