Woods and Waves Outdoor Learning — Daycare & Preschool in Vancouver, British Columbia

What parents say

• Kim Bennett

  Immensely grateful to Graham and his team for the growth we have seen in our child’s resiliency, confidence and curiosity in the outdoors. My daughter literally runs from the car down the path to meet up each week, a sign that she feels comfortable and excited! I love seeing the muddy boots and pocket full of rocks at the end of every class.

  Mr Graham and team have been with my daughter for a couple years through summer and spring break camps. I couldnt recommend them enough. My daughter has had the most positive experiences. She can tend to be uncomfortable with drop offs but not with Mr Graham + team! Him and all the staff are so kind and caring for all the kids. It's not just a matter of walking around with the kids all day, they actually have trollies full of tools and fun activities for the kids.. they go all the way through the forest up little mountains and onto the beaches. Best outdoor camp ever!

• Iris Velazquez

  What an amazing experience for kids! We truly love Woods and Waves. Mr Graham and his team are awesome and keep the kids engaged and learning while playing in a beautiful setting. I remember I was a bit nervous about the "mess", but that went out the window the first time I picked my kid up and he was running with a muddy face and the biggest smile, rainy days quickly became our favourite! I cannot recommend W&W enough and we'll be back for spring and summer break.

  Graham and his team at Woods n Waves are working hard to promote exactly what society needs for our kids: more avenues for free, independent, self-directed and multi-age play outdoors! Graham is a super kind, positive and sturdy leader to the kids and they all seem to love him. It feels good to send my kids to place where they get to enjoy their childhood - outside and dirty - and make their own decisions on how they wish to play. Thank you Graham for everything you do to encourage a real childhood!

  My son has been going to Woods and Waves spring and summer camps with Mr. Graham since he was three, and it’s truly the highlight of his year! He’s already counting down the days until his next adventure with Mr. Graham and his fantastic team. Mr. Graham and his team are warm, welcoming, and great with kids. I highly recommend this outdoor experience to families with kids of all ages—it’s an adventure your child will love!
