About the Provider

Description: At Frog & Toad our philosophy is that each child is an individual, with individual needs, preferences, feelings, and learning styles. Likewise, we believe that each family has its own uniqueness. Our school is designed to provide outstanding care to all children and families with a partiality toward ongoing exposure to nature. We do this by altering our teaching styles to reach each child, by communicating with families about their child and family each and every day, by fully understanding early childhood development, by including nature-based concepts in our curriculum, and by genuinely caring about the success of each individual and family with whom we work. As it relates to gender identity, our role as educators is to create a safe and reflective space for children to develop their identities and to counterbalance gender stereotypes. This means that our classrooms will work against gender stereotyping, and that children will be able to freely explore all gender roles.
