This pre-school is is a hidden gem! First of all, being a Nature preschool, the students are outside all year (safe weather permitting) exploring the beautiful landscapes of the Chicago Botanic Gardens. They are getting what so many of us and our children are craving-more time in nature, learning and growing and re-connecting. In this preschool children really get to be children, and with that they learn and develop in ways that are appropriate to their age. In a world saturated with screens, this preschool is welcomed reprieve. The teachers are special trained not only in early childhood development, but also specifically in inspiring play through nature education. They definitely provide a nurturing learning environment helping children learn important age appropriate skills. The teachers also encourage a wonderful community within the classroom and amongst the families with various extra activities and opportunities. The facilities are second to none- beautiful and inspiring. I kind of wish I could be a preschooler again! My child attended the preschool for two years and I hope to send my other children here as well. Despite their being numerous quality preschools much nearer my home, I felt the Nature Preschool provided opportunities we could not find anywhere else. I’m so grateful for the wonderful experiences she has had at the Nature Preschool.

We now have our second daughter wrapping up her first year with the Botanic Gardens Preschool after our first daughter spent two years there. Three years of experience and they are Fantastic! The teachers are devoted, caring, smart, engaging, energetic, and deeply passionate about the development and education of the kids in their care. And the kids love their teachers! The management has been thoughtful, inspirational, communicative, and insightful. This is a wonderful and enriching place to begin your child’s educational journey.
The best early education I've ever encountered. Super passionate and enthusiastic teachers, a fabulous director, and more activities in a morning than I manage to do in a day. Loved every minute of my child's class, and loved being able to visit the gardens every week. Worth the drive!
Our kids loved their time in Nature Preschool! They are finishing their second year and we have watched them grow, not only in their standard learning, but their self-confidence as well! They have such an amazing appreciation for nature and absolutely adore their teachers.
I can't say more unbelievably wonderful things about the Botanic Gardens Preschool. My daughter is finishing her second year and she has grown so much. The teachers and staff are simply awesome. Class was planned so thoughtfully from day to day and the kids spent everyday outside in nature.
