About Us
Philosophy
We encourage children to be independent and curious and to develop a sense of well-being and a life-long love of learning in an inclusive, nurturing community.
At Gumnut Gardens, we foster independence, well-being, and a life-long love of learning. Our inclusive and supportive environment empowers children to become confident, capable learners. Our educators build the curriculum around each child’s interests, abilities, and family context, guided by a belief in their potential and individuality.
Our philosophy draws inspiration from educational approaches such as Reggio Emilia.
We believe that children thrive in environments that are calm, beautiful, and intentional. These spaces—rich in open-ended materials—become “the third teacher,” inviting children to make choices, explore freely, and engage deeply in their learning.
