About Wild Peaks Collective
Vision
To nurture independent, curious, resilient, and holistic learners who are deeply connected to nature and equipped with practical life skills.
Mission
To provide a child-led, curiosity-driven learning environment that emphasizes hands-on activities, entrepreneurship, holistic well-being, and experiential learning across all subjects, inspired by Montessori principles. We believe in creating resilience in children by allowing them to solve their own problems and learn from their experiences.
Our Space
At Wild Peaks Collective, we offer a Montessori-inspired learning environment where children are invited to explore and learn based on their interests. Inside, they can dive into our cozy library nook, engage in creative projects, and develop essential life skills in our practical life area. Our gathering area fosters group learning and is filled with music, discussions, and collaborative activities. Outdoors, children experience hands-on discovery, from building in the Makers Corner to climbing our custom rock wall and tending to the garden, fostering a deep connection to nature and community.
Our
Founder
Meet Andrea, a dedicated mother of two and the visionary behind Wild Peaks Collective. Andrea has been passionate about education for years, but that passion grew even stronger when she began homeschooling her own children. Frustrated by the limitations of the traditional education system, she crafted a program for her children that provided the kind of personalized, holistic learning experience she couldn’t find anywhere else.
With a background in special education—ranging from ABA and play-based therapies to running homeschool programs for children with autism—Andrea’s experience deepened her commitment to creating a limitless education that nurtures every child's unique potential. After years of dreaming and manifesting, Wild Peaks Collective became a reality, reflecting her desire to offer families a nature-connected, curiosity-driven, and inclusive education.
Andrea is passionate about reshaping education as we know it and is excited to welcome more children to join her in this transformative journey.
