Where children and families grow together

High-quality care and outdoor focused learning for children aged 2.5 - 5 years in Golden BC.

Large Outdoor Space

With over 10,000 sq ft of dedicated outdoor space — including fruit trees, berry bushes, garden beds, and sweeping mountain views — children spend their days exploring, creating, and learning immersed in nature.

Designed for a maximum of 25 children with a minimum of three educators, Wildernest is built around strong relationships and individualized care (currently operating with a smaller group of 8 children).

Through thoughtful, play-based learning, we nurture each child´s social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development in a way that feels natural, joyful, and supportive.
