At Flora and Fauna Learning Center SPC, we provide thoughtful, age-appropriate preschool experiences designed to support school readiness while honoring the joy and curiosity of early childhood. Our program blends a strong preschool education with meaningful opportunities for play and exploration, helping children build confidence, independence, and a lifelong love of learning.
Our curriculum centers on universal concepts and hands-on experiences that support early academic skills, social-emotional development, and cooperative play. Indoors, children engage in structured, developmentally appropriate learning that lays the foundation for literacy, numeracy, problem-solving, and classroom routines. Outdoors, learning continues through play and interaction with the natural world, encouraging creativity, movement, and curiosity.
Flora and Fauna Learning Center was founded on values of respect for childhood, connection, and authenticity. We believe children learn best when they feel safe, seen, and supported as individuals. Our carefully selected team of educators is encouraged to teach from who they are, bringing their unique strengths and experiences into the classroom to create responsive, engaging learning environments.
Our team is a collaborative community of caring professionals with diverse backgrounds in early childhood education, the arts, academics, and more. Together, we create a nurturing space where the whole child is supported—academically, socially, and emotionally—so they are well prepared for school and empowered to grow and thrive.
At Flora and Fauna Learning Center SPC, we believe children thrive when they are supported by a caring, connected community. Our care teams work collaboratively to thoughtfully attune to the unique needs of each child, family, and classroom community through daily observation and interaction, regular team reflection, and ongoing planning.
By emphasizing shared values and community care, every child is supported by a trusted team of caregivers and surrounded by peers they can learn and grow alongside. Our open-ended, responsive approach means that learning experiences, activities, and enrichment opportunities are shaped by the interests and developmental needs of each group. This allows us to support the whole child—academically, socially, and emotionally—within a strong and nurturing community.
Gardening in a preschool setting fosters the development of math, science, and pre-reading skills in a hands-on way.
On Site we have four 4*4 raised vegetable garden beds with trellises, a big rock garden bed for growing corn, beans, and squash together, 3 wildflower garden beds, a bluberry patch, a raspberry patch, and fruit trees.
Our art centers are not only equipped with the staples found in any preschool program but also include a variety of materials including but not limited to seeds, ribbons, cardboard, pipe cleaners, beads, strings, and more!
The inclusion of these materials allows for children to develop refined fine motor, problem solving, collaborative, and more skills as they create objects they may find in their everyday life.
Science, Technology, Engineering, ARTS, and Math are a crucial part of Early Childhood Education. At Flora and Fauna we will conduct weekly if not daily activities with the children in our care that include hands-on experiential learning opportunities to explore these areas.

We acknowledge that we are on the traditional land of the Spokane People and take a moment of pause to acknowledge not only the impact of the colonization of this land but also the strength and resiliency of the Spokane people and their relatives. We recognize the Spokane People as stewards of this land and the relationship that exists between area indigenous people and their traditional lands since time immemorial. We give thanks to the traditions and legacy of the indigenous people and their descendants and pledge to work to cultivate a relationship and honor their stewardship and values.
This Land Acknowledgement exists as a statement to Indigenous Persons who are here and who’ve been here since time immemorial. This statement does not exist in the past tense, but instead serves as a first step toward relationship building and supportive association. At Flora and Fauna Learning Center SPC, we value being good neighbors not only within our small community of families and educators but also to the people and the land we will explore in outings in the future. We acknowledge we have much to learn about land management and practices from the Indigenous Persons who have been and are still here, and are excited to create space to continue learning, growing, and being good neighbors.
