The Fiddleheads Forest School is an entirely outdoor preschool program. We believe in supporting the growth of the whole child through attention to their social and emotional development, self-regulation and physical development.
Natural Start invited Sarah Heller, co-founder and former director of Fiddleheads Forest School, to share the process she developed at Fiddleheads to enroll families with equity in mind. Sarah has spent the last two years learning about enrollment practices and asking questions with the goal of learning how to build more equitable systems and reduce barriers to accessing nature-based education.
