Wow And Flutterville Global Playgarden

Our Philosophy:
We believe our children will save the world. Children have a limitless capacity for compassion, gratitude, and open-mindedness. The care we provide helps them keep these gifts close and carry them throughout their lives. Wow and Flutterville offers Waldorf-inspired care for children 6 weeks to 5 years. Embracing the philosophy, “home-away-from-home” by providing loving communities designed to support little ones in their important work of exploring, discovering, and learning through nature-based exploration in an environment filled with kindness, empathy, and a culture of inclusion.

Daily Rhythm and following our children lead
We believe children are best supported through a rhythm that follows their lead through every aspect of their day.

This belief begins with our youngest friends in Magnolia and continues up through our friends in the Willow classroom.

It starts by respecting our infant's agency. This might look like putting children into positions they can get themselves in and out of, rather than forcing tummy time.
In Waldorf, we often talk about in-breath and out-breath. Children often have not developed skills of self-regulation, a rhythm allows them the time and space for quiet in-breath activities and gross motor out-breath activities.

We see our teachers, like good DJs, utilizing a beautiful classroom environment as a third teacher, using mother nature and its gifts as a way to help children regulate and through a mix of art, story, music & free play, create a space where children feel safe & secure to explore the world around them.
