Our
Story
Get to Know Us
We’re a mother-daughter team with a shared love for learning, creativity, and the natural world. With years of experience in education, we created Maple & Moss as a place where children can grow, explore, and enjoy the magic of every season.
Our passion lies in helping kids build confidence, curiosity, and a lifelong love of learning—through hands-on projects, outdoor play, and meaningful moments. We believe learning should feel joyful, connected, and full of wonder.
We’re so happy you’re here.

Our Mission
Enriching Lives
Maple & Moss is dedicated to fostering a love for learning in children by connecting academic concepts with hands-on, creative experiences. We believe that children thrive when they can explore both intellectually and artistically, which is why our program incorporates educational lessons in science, nature, and the arts—always with a focus on crafting. By seamlessly blending exploration, observation, and creation, we cultivate curiosity and build foundational skills in literacy, mathematics, and problem-solving. As children discover the world around them, they also learn to create, express, and problem-solve through art, making each season a holistic journey of academic and creative growth.
