ROOTS OF THE GARDEN

In 1988, a local Portland family founded The Children’s Garden to create a haven where children are nurtured and celebrated while receiving a high-quality education.

More than 35 years after opening its doors, we continue to fulfill the founder’s mission by giving children a space to discover the joy of learning in an environment where they feel safe and loved.

We have two campuses in Portland to serve local families. With our passionate educators, inspiring learning spaces, and impactful curriculum, we give children the opportunity to thrive in every way.

At The Children’s Garden, we are deeply committed to fostering a community where every child feels like they belong, their unique talents are recognized and encouraged, and their curiosity can flourish in endless ways. Our beautiful campuses are more than just places for learning; they are sanctuaries where children can explore, imagine, and grow at their own pace. They are surrounded by nature and nurtured by a team of dedicated educators who believe in the power of kindness, creativity, and personalized attention.

We understand that each family is an integral part of our vibrant community, and we strive to build strong, lasting connections with parents and guardians, ensuring that The Children’s Garden feels like an extension of home. Our doors are always open for families to join in our celebrations, share in our learning adventures, and contribute to the ever-evolving tapestry of our community.

At The Children’s Garden, your child’s journey is our journey. Together, let’s create a world of endless possibilities, where every day is an opportunity to discover something extraordinary, to make new friends, and to cherish the moments that make childhood so magical. Welcome to our family.
