Welcome to the Garden

The Children's Garden


A garden growing since 1988 now thrives in uptown Portland. The “flowers” from that garden are the blossoming young minds and bodies of the children who are nourished there.

The Children’s Garden follows a dedicated gardeners’ approach to nurturing its young charges. “We are always growing and changing, tailoring our program to the children in our care. We pride ourselves on our personalized learning environment and never use a ‘cookie-cutter’ approach.”

Families agree that the high quality care provided at The Children’s Garden is tops ~ in fact, they voted it the “Best Day Care Center” in Portland Parent’s Annual Golden Bootie Award Contest.

Building a child’s self-esteem has top priority at The Children’s Garden. We make sure children are comfortable in their environment so they can be free to learn. Child-friendly centers are designed with kids in mind ~ no long institutional hallways or imposing doors. Instead, children enjoy a cozy, home-like setting where classrooms are entered through a garden gate.

Infants through kindergartners grow in the safe, caring atmosphere of The Children’s Garden. Take a stroll through the ‘Garden’ to see why so many Portland parents make this their learning center choice.
