Early Childhood, Age 5 (we also welcome school-ready 4 year olds)
The early childhood Waldorf classroom is the bridge between family and school life. We believe a play-based environment is most beneficial for this age so children can develop to their fullest potential before academic work begins.

Dreamers Kindergarten
At The Dreamers’ School, our Kindergarten is a warm, nurturing space where childhood is honored, imagination is treasured, and learning unfolds gently through play, rhythm, and wonder.
Rooted in Waldorf-inspired philosophy, our kindergarten day is guided by the natural rhythms of childhood and the seasons. Children move through their days with intention and joy—baking bread, painting with watercolors, tending the garden, singing seasonal songs, building imaginative worlds, and playing freely in nature. Through these experiences, they develop foundational skills in creativity, resilience, social-emotional awareness, fine and gross motor abilities, early literacy, and numeracy in a developmentally meaningful way.
We believe young children learn best through doing, observing, and imitating the world around them. Teachers model kindness, curiosity, gratitude, and collaboration, creating a gentle and secure environment where each child is seen, valued, and encouraged to grow at their own pace.
Our classroom fosters
Play-based learning and imagination
Nature-rich exploration and outdoor play
Seasonal rhythms, festivals, and storytelling
Emotional warmth, social connection, and peaceful conflict resolution
Hands-on artistic experiences: watercolor painting, handwork, beeswax modeling, bread-baking and more
A comforting balance of movement, music, rest, and quiet joy
Our program invites families into a community of connection, honoring the magic of early childhood and celebrating the light each child brings into the world. In this tender year, children build confidence, develop friendships, and experience the wonder of learning with their whole being — head, heart, and hands.
We welcome your child to come dream, play, and grow with us.
