About Us

We are a family of life-long learners who want to give our children opportunities to experience a wonderful childhood.

Our focus is on elementary education, but siblings of all ages are welcome. We believe that a mix of ages is an important aspect of sharing knowledge and life skills.

The Vision

We encourge and support early development and education through deep play and literacy.

The Mission

Our mission is to foster a supportive environment that allows parents and young learners to enjoy a holistic approach to learning and to make lasting memories together. If you choose to accept this mission, please join us!

Grassroots Principles

We don't operate under a leadership hierarchy but through an open democratic process, and by taking on administrative roles when needed. We do not collect membership fees and without operating budget all costs are transparent and discussed.

By providing an opportunity to participate in at a low financial cost we'd like to let parents and caregivers take ownership of their involment in the co-op. Supplies and materials can be contributed by participants. Locations are public spaces or the cost may be split. There are multiple possibilities that can be explored.

Participation Guidelines 2025-2026

At the center of our co-op is the focus on cooperative participation and collaborative efforts.
