What makes you stand out? How are you doing it better?

Child Care at a College

Everyone benefits from being outside, and there is no better time to instill a love of the outdoors and nature than in childhood and young adulthood.

Let’s talk about your Early Childhood Education, Social Work and Research Departments and how an outdoor play and learning environment can improve the success of your students. We are a trusted and award-winning global powerhouse and will guide you through community engagement, design, installation and training.

If you’re looking to connect your staff, students and visitors to an authentic full-sensory communal nature experience, look no further. If you want to add or enrich the programming on campus, our team of experts would be thrilled to connect with you on what your goals are.

No two sites are the same, but we wanted to share with you just a few spaces we have designed to give you a little more insight into what a BNP project truly looks and feels like. We are mission-deep and believe in the foundational value of immersive nature experiences and the positive effects they have on people and our environment.
