Welcome to The Wholesome Child!

We have a fresh approach to early learning unlike anything you will find. We want to reach far beyond what parents have come to expect from childcare. We provide a year-round, full-day education based care that is above and beyond traditional childcare.

At The Wholesome Child, we are preparing young children for a love of life-long learning and success. Our Mission is to create a childcare center based on quality not quantity. We want to instill the love for nature and a healthy lifestyle in our children, by creating a safe, nurturing and natural environment that promotes positive self-image, independence, self-confidence and healthy living skills. This approach is based upon the respect for children and their natural urge to grow and discover in a mixed age group setting. We want to embrace nature as our teacher and practice practical life skills throughout our daily rhythms.

The curriculum is inspired by Waldorf, Charlotte Mason, Reggio Emilia, and Montessori philosophies, with an emphasis on outdoor activities, environmental awareness, sustainable gardening, explorative art activities, and developing a love for music.

Nutrition is an important part in a child’s growing and developing body. Our world is full of chemicals as you may be aware. Our goal is to be as chemically free as possible. Your child's food will be all natural, organic when possible, locally sourced when available, and always freshly prepared. Our food will not include any artificial flavors, sugars, or colorings, preservatives, GMO's, or hydrogenated oils.

We will also go above and beyond to keep the environment at our center free of chemicals by using only natural cleaning supplies and products. Therefore, everything we purchase is screened for toxicity. We go above and beyond to ensure your child is protected from toxic chemicals taking great care in selecting products such as toys, furniture, sleep mats, outdoor playground equipment and art supplies that will be void of common chemicals like PVC, Formaldehyde, & VOC’s setting us apart from all other childcare facilities.

Being active and using our bodies for movement is also a great way to stay healthy. We will offer yoga, and music and movement classes to the children. Yoga for adults is very relaxing and helps us gain control of our bodies. It is no different with children and they love it! Yoga not only helps with flexibility and balance, but it also enhances children’s concentration skills. This activity boosts their confidence in the movement of their bodies as well as being confident in reaching new possibilities.

Music is a natural part of life and we believe that exposing them to instruments and different styles of music creates an environment that is not only fun but educational. Music experts say that these experiences forge more pathways between the cells in their brain and can have a big impact on their development. The biggest impact is when kids actively participate and that’s our favorite part.

So, why should you have to settle for anything less than the best? You can have the best of both worlds...a chemical free safe environment with fresh real food AND early childhood education to ensure your child is developing to their fullest potential in a fun and exciting way.

We hope you choose The Wholesome Child to nurture and develop your precious children from the inside out!
