Vine & Branches Childcare

As a church and childcare in Aldie, living on mission for Christ, we encourage one another and build each other up (1 Thess 5:11)! We live on mission, together— rooted in Christ, growing together in God’s Word, and showing Him to the world!

🌎 We were so blessed by a snapping turtle on our property this Earth Day! Some of our staff, students, and parents had a blast talking about how to be sensitive, careful, and observe from a safe distance these incredible dinosaur-like creatures. Happy Earth Day 🌎

It's a rainy day, and Phyllis is cozied up on her nest at Vine & Branches. We are eagerly anticipating the arrival of all the adorable little goslings she will have!🐥

This week has been full of hands-on learning! We’ve explored sensory activities, talked about bugs, and continued our plant observations—checking our seeds, watering our plants, and watching them grow. Growing minds and growing plants go hand in hand! 🌱🐛✨

Spring is in the air, and so are the bugs! 🐞🐜🦋 This week, we’re diving into the world of bugs and insects as we continue our spring exploration. Today, our little learners are investigating bugs up close and labeling their different parts. Hands-on discovery and learning in action! Stay tuned for more exciting adventures in our classrooms!

To wrap up Read Across America Month, we kicked off the week with a special visit from the Gum Spring librarian! The children enjoyed an interactive and fun story time, making reading even more exciting. Reading is a vital part of education, and we love fostering a love for books in our little learners!

Happy St. Patrick’s Day from the children and staff at Vine and Branches! Wishing you a day filled with joy, laughter, and a little bit of Irish luck! ☘️💚

We truly appreciate your support!

Clocks will spring forward one hour this Sunday, March 9, 2025!
