We are delighted to welcome your child to Spring Hill Children’s Center for our nature-based preschool program for children ages 3 through age 6! We will be considering registrations as space allows. Once we receive your submission we will send your contract and invoice for a $200 supplies fee. Complete this form and pay your invoice promptly to ensure your space.
Nature is our classroom.
At Spring Hill children are given the space and time to truly live into their childhood. They play, sing, paint, garden and build close connections with their teachers and class. They explore the natural world together, and in so doing, they explore themselves - their capacities, their imaginations, as well as what it means to be a good friend.
Come experience it for yourself.
