Who We Are "We jump in puddles, we dance freely, and we learn from one another"

    Founded in 2022 with a big dream of wanting to create meaningful nature-based programming for little ones. Deep Roots Nature and Nursery School is licensed by the Ministry of Education and is inquiry based, and inspired by the Reggio Emilia Style of learning with programs for ages 18 months to 5 years old. We seek to foster the development of the whole child through cognitive, physical, social, emotional and creative play. We promote inclusion and diversity, elevate our community and inspire one another for continuous growth and development.


  • Philosophy Statement

    Deep Roots nature and Nursery School provides early learning opportunities that initiate little ones into a deep relationship and love for nature and one another. We are a place for them to feel safe, loved and free to explore at their own pace. Our early childhood education programs will foster the development of the whole child through different learning opportunities indoors and in nature. We will work collaboratively with the children, families, teachers and our community to create a space that is accepting and inclusive. Our curriculum is student inspired and child-led, to instill strong connections and love for learning.

  • "Our challenge isn't so much to teach children about the natural world, but to find ways to sustain the instinctive connections they already carry"
