An in home play based childcare located in two SE Portland neighborhoods (Montavilla and South Tabor,) that provides a comfortable, nurturing environment for young children to play, learn and grow!
We offer a variety of experiences for our group throughout our days together. We all work and play together in our mixed age environment which provides an element that is valuable for young children. It encourages leadership, patience, understanding, and respect for one another. We offer a loosely structured, play based learning experience, largely child driven, we follow their lead and expand on their interests and ideas.
We encourage you to schedule a tour when signing up for our waitlist.

Infant Care
Infants are given the opportunity to be fully engaged with the whole group and while they are generally in the arms of a caregiver or very near by they get a variety of experiences throughout the day with all of the children.
Once they are mobile we give them space for safe and monitored exploration throughout the child care space at their pace. We try to follow their natural rhythms of eating and sleeping as closely as we can.
