SWEET MEADOW IS A LICENSED IN-HOME PRESCHOOL AND CARE PROGRAM. WE OFFER CHILD CENTERED CREATIVE PLAY AND NATURE-BASED PRESCHOOL FOR 2-6 YEAR OLDS, SPRING AND SUMMER CAMPS FOR AGES 2-10. WE ARE LOCATED IN NORTHEAST PORTLAND, OREGON AT THE BASE OF ROCKY BUTTE. OUR PHILOSOPHY IS A GENTLE APPROACH BLEND OF THE REGGIO EMELIA AND MONTESSORI PHILOSOPHIES WHERE CHILD’S NEEDS, INTERESTS AND CURIOSITIES ARE THE CURRICULUM WITH AN EMPHASIS ON CREATIVE PLAY AND OUTDOOR EXPLORATION.

OUR ENVIRONMENT IS SET UP WITH A MULTITUDE OF OPEN-ENDED SENSORY RICH INDOOR AND OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES AIMED TO ENGAGE THE SENSES AND INSPIRE THREADS OF LEARNING AND BEING IN COMMUNITY.

DAILY RHYTHM FOLLOWS AN EMERGENT CURRICULUM INCORPORATING MUSIC, STORY TIME, DRAWING, COOKING, HANDCRAFTING, GARDEN AND NATURE EXPLORATIONS, COMMUNITY PROJECT BASED LEARNING JOURNEYS AND CHILD-LED PROCESS ART FOLLOWING THE CYCLES AND SEASONS OF NATURE AND OURSELVES.
