Our Philosophy
At Tauxemont, the learning experience invites parents to stay meaningfully connected as their children take this important step toward independence. The partnership between parent, child, and teacher is both intentional and deeply special.
Nationally Accredited
Our nature- and play-based program is proud to be recognized as Accredited Plus by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, the highest level of accreditation available.
This distinction reflects the care and intention behind our work each day, from our thoughtfully designed environment to the relationships that guide it. Through in-depth evaluation, site visits, and ongoing reflection, this recognition affirms our commitment to creating a safe, responsive, and high-quality early childhood experience rooted in connection, curiosity, and respect for each child.
Our Little School in the Woods
Since 1942, Tauxemont has nurtured a lifelong love of learning. Rooted in our wooded campus, children move easily between indoor and outdoor classrooms, where each day unfolds through discovery, play, and meaningful connection.
