    To build a support system around parents during these delightful and challenging years of parenting young children—we are committed to creating moments throughout the year where your cup gets filled up too. We ask each family to commit to involvement in the community through at least ONE of the following Connection Networks. The benefits of the forest are not just for our children, they are also for us, the keepers of early childhood and the builders of dreams for our families. When we show up for each other, we build connections, we feel less alone, we dream together, and life is BETTER.

  • Discounts, Fees, & Financial Policies 

    Financial Policies

    • Monthly Auto-Debits for Tuition: Please note that all families choosing the monthly tuition payment plan will be asked to complete our Credit Card Authorization Form for auto-debits on Aug 1, Sept 1, Oct 1, Nov 1, Dec 1, Jan 1, Feb 1, Mar 1, Apr 1 & May 1.
    • Early Withdrawal 
      If you find yourself needing to withdraw your child(ren) from Wee Folk Forest or Bramble Hedge Transitional Kindergarten prior to the end of the school year, you will be refunded (when relevant) your remaining tuition, minus a penalty of 2 months' tuition. Please note that if you request a schedule reduction for your child, anytime after the school year starts, the reduction is counted as an early withdrawal and our 2 month tuition penalty will apply to the dropped days/times. If you are on a monthly tuition auto-debit schedule, your tuition will continue to be debited for 2 months after early withdrawal or reducing your child's schedule at any time during the school year.
    • Rolling Admission
      We accept students on a rolling basis throughout the school year, as long as we have space remaining in the program. If you enroll after the beginning of the year, your tuition will be prorated accordingly, to account for any missed weeks. After January 1, 2027, your enrollment fee and work day/connection network commitment fee will both be reduced by 50%.
    • Our Litigious Culture 
    • Friends, a gentle word here on our litigious culture, in which legal action is threatened at the slightest provocation. We want to say, as a reminder, that we exist to serve families. We are not taking advantage of anyone, we always aim to be as reasonable as humanly possible. Please know that our financial policies exist purely as a way to protect the school and that we have learned over the years what is required for the sustainability of our programs. If you have read through our financial policies and feel that our school is not for you, that is totally fine. We stand for every person's right to make decisions that feel good--and we trust that any family who decides to join our programs feels aligned with our mission, values and policies.
