Inspired by the transformative Scandinavian Forest School philosophy, Guided Wild centers on child-led learning and the belief that every child deserves the freedom to explore, play and grow in natural settings. We are committed to providing a space where children can develop their autonomy, curiosity and problem solving skills, all while connecting with the environment.
Step into our immersive outdoor classroom, and you'll see the magic unfold as children's eyes light up with wonder. Surrounded by the beauty of nature, they become natural-born explorers, asking questions, seeking answers, and discovering the world around them with unbridled enthusiasm.

For homeschool families seeking outdoor education enrichment opportunities for their 5-10 year olds, our 1 day a week option offers a chance to engage in the Forest School experience. Perfect for those who wish to supplement their child's learning with immersive, nature-based education, our daily option provides the same rich, child-led exploration and play as our longer-term programs.
Join us for a special outdoor workshop designed to foster early connections with nature for both moms and babies. Set against the tranquil backdrop of the forest, our gentle activities encourage relaxation, play, and the creation of precious memories. Feel confident dressing your little ones for the elements as we explore the wonders of the outdoors. Learn about holistic childhood development through the Forest School ethos, and connect with like-minded forest mamas who share your love for nature.
Guided Wild is dedicated to nurturing the innate curiosity and resilience of children through immersive, nature-based learning experiences. Our mission is to foster a deep connection between young minds and the natural world, empowering them to explore, play, create, and grow with autonomy.
The Full Time Summer Experience encompasses all four thematic blocks—Animal Homes, Insect Discovery, Water Play, and Nature Art—offering a holistic journey through nature’s classroom.
Through hands-on activities, observation, and playful exploration, children will learn about the importance of habitats in nature, animal behavior, and how we can protect these living spaces.
This block is a deep dive into the lives of insects, fostering a sense of wonder and respect for these small, but mighty creatures of our planet.
Our program operates on a long-term basis, providing families with flexible options. By revisiting the same natural woodland environment, we create a conducive space for building upon prior knowledge and fostering deeper understanding.
Our primary focus is on promoting holistic development in our students. Social skills emerge as children interact with peers from different groups, encouraging inclusivity and cooperation. To nurture emotional growth, we empower them to discuss strategies for self-regulation, compromise, and problem-solving, fostering resilience and empathy.
