“If we want children to flourish, to become truly empowered, let us allow them to love the earth before we ask them to save it.”

Parker River Community Preschool is a Reggio-Emilia inspired, nature-centered, learning community of children, families, and teachers who listen to and respect children’s thinking, creativity, and ways of learning! Our mission is to partner with parents to support children’s growth during their toddler and preschool years with specific attention to young children’s journeys to develop the following:

  • a sense of belonging and well-being within a community

  • an ability to communicate effectively and confidently in many ways

  • a deep respect & understanding for nature & place

  • enthusiasm for persisting at challenging problems or tasks
