Full time home daycare for your child aged 12 months to 4 years. We provide your growing child with a loving, healthy, low carbon footprint environment. With extensive outdoor time, curiosity and love for our natural world are fostered. Walking in fields and exploring forested areas very close to home will bathe the child in naturally stimulating experiences. Providing a calm but stimulating daily
routine with slow food and sufficient rest will ground your child, and promote their development into a healthy, balanced person. Music, dance, yoga and storytelling, along with individual and group play will stimulate a healthy mind, body and spirit. Working with a second and alternate provider, children will have two adults to interact with and who will work together to work best in a happy and positive manner.

BIOGRAPHY
Aija Auzina
I am an environmentalist and educator who has homeschooled her own three children in Ottawa during their earliest years with Montessori methods. I have worked with children as a substitute teacher in an international school in Latvia both in the preschool groups and elementary grades and firmly believe that children thrive best in a home environment that allows them to safely explore the natural world and their relationship to it. Starting this home business just as my own children are leaving the family nest lets me share my love of nature and children. I hope to nurture in your children that same love and respect for life in all its fascinating and curious forms, and the joy of living lightly. My home is shared with my 17 year old son and a tabby cat. Interests include folk dancing, running, hiking and camping. Training: First aid and CPR; Conflict resolution for children; Community building
