In our Nursery, we believe in the power of play as a key tool for learning and exploration. Nursery students are cared for in a space designed to accommodate both active play and restful nap time, ensuring a smooth and nurturing experience throughout the day.

Meanwhile, our Pre-K students thrive in an envioronment that is heavily influenced by both Montessori and Waldorf philosophies. This environment encourages child-led learning, giving kids the freedom to explore, discover, and grow at their own pace.

We also recognize the importance of outdoor play in early childhood development. That’s why our program includes plenty of outdoor adventures, where children can safely run, jump, and explore the wonders of nature under careful supervision.

We understand that learning can sometimes get a bit messy, so we encourage our youngest Moonlighters to dress comfortably and bring extra clothes!

While our Nursery and Pre-K programs are open to all families, priority enrollment is given to siblings of students in our K-12 classes.

Bristol – Our Newest Chapter

In early 2024, we began searching for a second location, a place that shared our values and welcomed our mission. We are thrilled to have found that in First United Methodist Church in Bristol, who have embraced our co-op with open arms. Beginning in fall of 2025, we’ll open our doors to new families at this second location, expanding our reach and continuing to build a learning environment grounded in kindness, curiosity, and community.
