Our Mission
Our mission at PCN is to meet each child where they are emotionally, socially, academically, and developmentally while giving them an accepting, enriching play-based, and nature centered environment to explore the world and relationships around them.
First-Rate Curriculum
Young children learn best when they are engaged, involved, allowed for open ended exploration, and in a warm, inclusive, comforting environment. We offer a variety of enriching activities designed to help each child in their social, emotional, physical and academic development. With an ever changing world we are here to embrace each child and their family as we navigate through challenging times and make sure everyone feels loved, safe, and heard.
At PCN we also spend a lot of time in nature, and bringing nature in. We learn about the natural world around us by taking hikes, using magnifying glasses, touching, smelling, identifying, exploring and asking lots of questions.
