Sprout House is a private, nonprofit child care center, nursery school, rising five, and kindergarten serving children from age 2 1/2 through 6 years.
The mission of Sprout House is to provide a home-like setting in which happy and inquisitive children develop positive and eager attitudes toward school. We foster a global consciousness that embraces environmental beauty and sustainability.
At the same time, we cultivate an awareness that all children deserve participation in societies where people can sustain themselves and live healthful, stimulating and fulfilling lives.
