Join us for an Open House
Frog Pond Early Learning Center
Saturday, July 13th
9 – 11 am
Imagine a preschool that cares for the whole child. A preschool where …
- the focus is on social and emotional intelligence in an enriched and stimulating natural environment.
- kids don’t just learn about nature, they are immersed in it.
- children plant and tend gardens; care for goats, chickens, ducklings, and turtles; observe and study wildlife —including frogs, salamanders and insects
- hiking through neighboring Huntley Meadows is a weekly occurrence.
You don’t have to imagine it. Come see for yourself during our open house on Saturday, June 30 at 9 a.m.
Frog Pond is a year-round, full-day, inclusive early learning center for children from 18 months to pre-kindergarten that is dedicated to working families.
Frog Pond offers:
- A curriculum rich in science and nature study — and a dedicated science teacher!
- A natural environment on two acres of land adjoining Huntley Meadows Wildlife Refuge.
- A mini-farm with goats, chickens, ducks, turtles, and native creatures.
- An outdoor classroom and amphitheater
- Healthy and nutritious foods, including fresh-made meals; fresh fruits and vegetables; whole grain snacks; organic milk and cheese; and more.
- Full-time and part-time options (based on whole day, up to 10 hours per day. No part-day options available).
We are currently enrolling through the fall.

Take a look at our Nuture Calls video and please share it with others.
Sliding Snapper!
It’s true! A mama snapping turtle, who laid and buried a batch of eggs on top of Toad Mountain in our big kid play yard, decided to take the express way home.
A class of of pre-schoolers cheered her on. Just a small sampling of the neat things kids at Frog Pond experience daily (though is certainly the first time we’ve witnessed a turtle using a slide!)
View the video here! (Be sure to turn your volume up to hear the reaction of the kids.)
Frog Pond is owned and operated by Mother Nurture Company, a nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation dedicated to serving working families with young children and connecting children with nature.
