Little Friends
The Little Friends Program brings the insight and experience of Waldorf education to the young child.
The Little Friends program is full for the 25–26 school year with an accepted waitlist. We will continue to accept applications, but they will only be processed if a possible spot opens up.
​
Children are encouraged to participate in the living arts such as laundry folding, washing dishes, and caring for their school environment both inside and out. The creative arts are brought to the children through crayoning, painting, crafting, puppet stories and circle time, creating a rich early childhood experience. Play is at the heart of our Little Friends curriculum. Children spend ample time playing, with lots of time out of doors. The Little Friends program provides care in a nurturing environment away from home while also offering age appropriate Waldorf Early Childhood curriculum. Children are cared for in a mixed-age, family style setting.
Ages
This is a program for children ages 18 months – 3 years. Little Friends applicants may enroll on the 1st day of the month of turning 18 months as long as this is in or before November. Applicants are eligible for a final calendar year, if the child turns 3 years old after June 1.​​
