Mariposas Nature Preschool offers families a holistic approach to education that nurtures the whole child's growth through immersive, play-based learning in the natural world.

We are a registered nature-based school serving children ages 3 to 6, located in the serene countryside of Brookings, Oregon, nestled within a beautiful forest and alongside a tranquil creek.

Mariposas Preschool was born from our family's dream of creating a place where our kids are valued for who they are and their potential to learn. A school where they can explore, play, create, and investigate in their own time and through their own unique ways of expression. We aim to share this space with families who share this same vision of education for their children.

Vision

Our vision is to create a unique school in our community that promotes multicultural learning, with a nature-based approach that honors traditional ecological knowledge. Through an inclusive and hands-on curriculum, we provide students with enriching experiences that cultivate a profound and meaningful connection to their learning, the environment, and each other.
