Summary

Field & Forest is a unique preschool, based on the Scandinavian and German Forest Garden approach. Classes are held at our 5 acre private wooded site in Woodinville, Washington. We play and learn outdoors rain or shine, sleet or snow. Children are immersed in nature as a perfect setting to meet their developmental needs as they explore, create, and learn. Field & Forest teachers offer a balance of routine and structure, autonomy and community, while following the energy and interests of the children. We encourage a lot of imaginary play, building and creating with objects found in nature, and the expression of children's natural curiosity and creativity.


Opening: Field & Forest has a Co-teacher opening for our Outdoor Preschool class that meets Monday through Wednesday from 8:45am to 11:45am, mid-September through the first part of June.
