Thank you for all your support.

The Cottage Garden is a unique home-based Waldorf Day Care program, licensed for up to ten children. We offer a safe, loving environment filled with simple handmade toys and developmentally appropriate activities, all created to enhance the young child’s innate sense of learning through imitation. Our day is a balance of structure and free play. The rhythm of our daily activities offers a warm, and well-guided first playgroup experience for your pre-school child—a wonderful transition between home and school. We will be open on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Thursdays, from September—June. Tuition and Supply Fee includes 2 hot, organic, vegetarian meals and 1 snack daily plus; diapers, laundry etc. We invite you to browse our website and be in touch with us if you have any questions.

This year is the 102nd anniversary of Waldorf education.
