The Adults Who Make it Happen

Our teachers are highly experienced in guiding children through early exploration. They strive to give each child the time they need to explore, learn and discover the beauty in this world. Our goal is continuity of care, where real relationships can be built. With multi-age group classrooms, your child is with the same teacher, from the time they enroll, until they leave for pre-school. A true family like environment.

Rebecca T. Hawkins

Rebecca T Hawkins is a long time Teacher versed in the many languages of children. As the Director of Wild Garden, Becca creates an atmosphere of utmost comfort and quality. Each day she gives her gift of music and love of literature to the children. Rebecca is a charismatic and kind caregiver. Her love of literature grows in the hearts of the children more and more each story time. Rebecca also brings a lust for cooking into the daycare by creating lovely bake goods regularly with the children. The children follow Rebecca’s lead with a morally just compass, it is so nice to watch their relationship encourage such engaged and empowered growth.

Candice Chouinard

Candice is the owner of WGC ( formally Little Schoolhouse) has worked with children of ages and all backgrounds. She has created and implemented some very exceptional programs with some very exceptional children. Candice finds potential in absolutely everyone. She revels in hand-on, long term, messy projects that kids think are just for fun but, are more educational than anything. She professionally manages and supervises with a fair and team oriented fashion- though she’s tough at times, she’s a softy. Candice is highly qualified in visual and performing arts, outdoor recreation, health and fitness, and environmental awareness and program development and implementation. She quickly forges meaningful relationships with children and has a strong tendency towards yielding exceptionally heightened breakthroughs and goal orientated impacts. She is full of life and energy and will tire your child out every day.
