★★★★★Kilie EllisonWasatch Nature School, and specifically Mrs. Lizeth, has been the best experience we could have asked for this past year! Our son thrived this school year out in nature with friends and learned so much about the world around him. Thank you so much for an amazing experience and shoutout to Mrs. Lizeth the best teacher ever!
★★★★★Cali BudgeWasatch Nature School has been in my life for the past two years and I anticipate even longer! From my 8 yr old in Wilderness Explorers, my 4 yr old in Forest Kinder, and now I am an instructor! I have a degree in wildlife conservation and this is a dream come true for me. There truly is magic imbedded throughout this program on the outside and in. The staff our amazing to work with and the curriculum is beautiful! I highly recommend Wasatch Nature School to become a part of your life as well! Come and see the magic for yourself!
★★★★★Kara WoodburyI signed up my toddlers up for nature preschool on a whim last fall and I'm so glad I did! I did not expect this to be such an incredible, enriching experience for my entire family. I can't believe how much my kids have grown and thrived at WNS. I cannot believe the amazing community of teachers and parents and families that we now get to be a part of. We will definitely continue sending our kids here for as long as possible!
★★★★★Rebecca FlindersWe LOVE Wasatch Nature School! We’ve attended for two years now with two different children and they both have had incredible experiences! I love that they get to play and learn in nature in all weather. They have learned so much about resilience and perseverance. They trust their bodies and their minds. The teachers are wonderful and invested in my children. They make each child feel like the most important child there. My only complaint is that they don’t have a location closer to my house! Let’s find a magical location in PG! :)
★★★★★Sydney BjorkWe are so grateful to be a part of the Wasatch Nature School community! Our child has developed and strengthened so many attributes (resilience, creativity, curiosity, awareness) in this very special environment of outdoor learning through play. Honestly, our child would probably be content sitting at a desk and reading all day long, but we’re confident she’s building an important foundation for life at WNS. The teachers are endlessly kind, contagiously enthusiastic and clearly committed to the growth of their students. It’s well worth a commute!
