Nature Academy Daycare & School, led by Kayla Peterson in Saint George, Utah, offers a nurturing, nature-rich environment where young children can thrive. Blending early academic development with hands-on exploration and outdoor play, this unique program helps children build a strong foundation for lifelong learning.
At Nature Academy, learning is active, joyful, and rooted in curiosity. Kayla uses a Montessori-inspired approach, allowing students to move at their own pace while engaging meaningfully with the world around them. Activities are carefully designed to support cognitive growth, movement, creativity, and social-emotional development—all in a peaceful, natural setting.
Children spend time exploring outside, asking questions, building friendships, and participating in structured yet flexible lessons that make learning feel organic and engaging. Whether it’s digging in the dirt, observing insects, or practicing early literacy and math skills, every part of the day encourages discovery and connection.
Families love the calm and consistent rhythm of the program, as well as the emphasis on independence, respect, and kindness. Kayla’s gentle guidance and thoughtful planning create a safe and welcoming space where children feel confident, capable, and excited to learn.
If you’re seeking a childcare and early education option that honors your child’s natural curiosity and need for movement, Nature Academy Daycare & School offers a refreshing alternative to traditional classrooms.
