Nurturing Young Minds: The Reggio Emilia Approach at Little Nestlings

At Little Nestlings, we embrace the Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education, which nurtures children’s creativity, critical thinking, and social responsibility. Rooted in a child-led philosophy, this method encourages exploration and collaboration, allowing each child to actively shape their learning journey. Our classrooms, designed as a “third teacher,” inspire curiosity with natural materials and open-ended activities. Located in West Linn, Little Nestlings provides an environment where children develop emotional intelligence, self-confidence, and a love for lifelong learning—preparing them to thrive as future innovators.
