What fortunate children are those who can be in Rachel’s school! I had a Waldorf home preschool and passed the torch to Rachel some years ago as a mentor and colleague. I could not be happier as my successor has out shown all I could imagine. Her gentle ways, her love of animals and nature, her imaginative art of storytelling, her kind heart and clear head offer each child a way to become the best of who they are in a welcoming community of children.

It's hard to put Green Gables into words, Rachel & Nathan have created the most welcoming & playful space for kids preschool age that I've seen. I felt so comfortable dropping my child off, knowing he would be in the best care. I cannot say enough about them & what they have created, our family is ever so grateful for all of the gifts they have shared with us. '

As a parent and former educator, I can attest to just how special Green Gables is. From the cozy, magical setting to the kind, dedicated and attuned adults we could not ask for a better preschool experience. This community has offered our kids a safe and supportive environment for them to explore their curiosities and thrive. It truly is heartwarming to see how comfortable our kids are there. We LOVE Green Gables Play School and are forever grateful to be a part of it!

"I can't imagine a better place for my children."

"There is no place I'd rather have my daughter be than Green Gables. The time outdoors, the animals, the seasonal craft projects, cooking, stories and puppet plays make a wonderfully rich curriculum. However, the most wonderful thing about Green Gables is Miss Rachel. She has been such a warm, steady presence in my daughter's life for the past two years. She is wonderful with the children and my daughter adores her. I would recommend Green Gables to anyone who wants a nature-based play school for their child."

"Our daughter has been at Green Gables for 3 years. We love that one of Green Gables’ focuses is on outdoor play. Our daughter has a wonderful day swinging, jumping, climbing, and running like children should. The many animals in Ms. Rachel’s backyard are tended to daily as part of the Green Gables rhythm. Ms. Rachel guides the children with meaningful tasks like feeding the animals, sweeping, creating a straw bale house, watering plants, etc. Green Gables focuses on togetherness, nature, and the wondrous spirit of children. Ms. Rachel truly loves each of the children as if they were her own and honors each child’s unique spirit. We are so blessed to have found Green Gables and Ms. Rachel."
