Our Vision:
To establish a welcoming community of like-minded families, to grow together and be supported in their parenting journey.
To provide a place where children’s passion and interest in the natural world, and themselves in relationship to that world, is ignited.
To nurture a community, free of judgement, where children and their families feel a sense of belonging.
To create a weekly ritual that is as nourishing for parents/caregivers and their wellbeing, as it is for children.
To encourage families to witness nature and experience awe and wonder at its possibilities.

Testimonials
"Monday morning nature play has become the highlight of the week - for both my daughter and me!
My little on is such a free spirit, she loves running around outside and choosing to take part in the activities if she wants to (or playing on her own if she wants to). I love watching how her play develops with each session.
And we love Linda!! She puts so much effort and attention to detail into all of the activities for the kids. You can tell how much she genuinely loves us all. And an unexpected outcome of the playgroup is all the beautiful friendships I've made with other like-minded mums. "

"For nearly 1 and a half years my daughter and I have been attending Friday playgroups and we have both loved every week of it, always looking forward to it! The easy-going atmosphere and beautifully crafted stations that instigate exploration and play. Or just chilling out on the mat eating lunchboxes. We love doing and taking home the creative experience craft, and I particular have enjoyed watching my daughter get more involved in this processed over time and taking charge of the creating. I always leave having filled my cup up too, having a chat and getting to know the other mums more, friendships forming, being around so many like-minded people is always so refreshing. We love being a part of the We Are Nature Network."

"Our hearts are so blessed to have found this playgroup. We have watched our daughter thrive as she engages and learns in a space that nurtures her mind, body, and soul. We love the soft structure of the playgroup that allows us to follow our daughter’s lead. The setup meets many sensory needs, and spaces we can explore and learn without pressure. The nature aspect allows us to meet and ground ourselves on the Earth creating a calm space to meet. We have found a beautiful village of parents, children and facilitators that always highlights our week. "
