Pumpkin Patch:
A place where children thrive!
At the Pumpkin Patch we believe that children grow best through supportive, play-based programs set in a caring environment. Our focus is on the social, intellectual, and emotional growth of the children in our care, and it is a responsibility that we do not take lightly. Our highly trained and dedicated staff strive to make aftercare a welcoming place, filled with fun and engaging activities that kids look forward to day in and day out
Program Philosophy
At the Pumpkin Patch, our philosophy is rooted in play, curiosity, and creative expression. We believe that each child is unique and comes to school every day with their own special talents, skills, and challenges. It is our goal to help them learn and grow in a supportive, nurturing environment that celebrates the whole child.
Our co-op model program provides a unique, multi-generational approach to learning. While students will be guided by highly qualified teachers every day, they will also have the opportunity to learn from young adults, parents, and aging community members. We believe that it truly does “take a village to raise a child” and strive to bring the village to our ‘patch.’
By sharing in the rich knowledge and vast perspectives that can only truly be seen when all voices are brought to the table, your child will experience an education whose foundation is built on diversity and community.
