Blending traditional and nature based early childhood education.
Wholesome Beginnings
Nature Inspired Preschool
Child Driven Learning
Wholesome Beginnings is an in-home nature inspired program where your unique child can thrive each day. Our day is full of learning that blends nature based and traditional early educational philosophies. Interactions are filled with respect to create a space where every child knows they are valued. We spend ample time outside enjoying all the beauty and grit mother nature can provide growing children. This includes a large fenced in nature scape playground, a city park adjacent to our 2.7 acre property and strolls down beautiful Lake Netta Nature trail just down the cul de sac. In the School year we enjoy traditional circle time and thematic units which include activities to cover all learning domains. As children approach Kindergarten, an emphasis is placed on developing kindergarten readiness skills suited to each child’s individual learning progression. An emphasis is placed on creating friendships, practicing gratitude, growing in kindness, expressing positive mantras, enjoying our world, making messes and generating mental toughness all while enjoying a safe and nurturing environment. Guidance throughout our day is filled with presence, respect and love so that children's days may be filled with security, joy and learning. This high quality preschool is taught from a degreed and licensed early childhood educator.
Multi-Aged Approach
An intentional child-centered philosophy
Wholesome Beginnings provides education for the 2-5 year old child. If you are wanting care for younger children there may be an opportunity as Wholesome Beginnings is beginning to grow here in Ham Lake.
This intentional muli-aged approach allows children to develop many skills and develop strong connections throughout their time at Wholesome Beginnings. Children absorb knowledge from their peers, embrace leadership opportunities, learn through natural observation, have a secure and reliable relationship with their caregiver, and develop close and respectful relationships with siblings and peers. The extended years spent together creates a strong learning community!
