With our roots first established in early 2025, Earthkin Nature School is an early childhood education nonprofit offering nature-based, mixed-age preschool programming for children ages 3–5.
Our mission is to guide child-led experiences in nature that support whole-child development, spark curiosity and creativity, and nurture a lifelong relationship with the natural world.
We believe:
- Time in Nature is not only desirable, but essential to the health and development of young children
- Childhood is sacred and should be honored with care
- Good education is place-based education
- Learning happens most naturally and meaningfully when child-led and teacher-supported
- Age appropriate risk-taking is essential for holistic child development
