Our play-based curriculum helps children become independent, negotiate conflicts, and build relationships. Through the combination of self-directed play and guidance from our educators, children at Milldam Nursery School become disciplined thinkers.
Our Mission and Philosophy
Mission
Milldam Nursery School provides a solid foundation of knowledge that encourages a lifetime of emotional, social, cognitive and physical growth. Our co-operative school offers children and their families a communal learning environment, which emphasizes relationship building and hands-on learning through play.
Philosophy
At Milldam Nursery School, we support the intellectual, emotional, and social growth of our students by providing a developmentally appropriate environment for learning through play. When children play, they follow their natural instincts, explore things about which they’re curious, and as a result learn in the best way possible. It is through play that children develop their imaginations, master social skills, and learn to solve both simple and complex problems.
