Welcome to the Farm and Homestead Program!

 "My son has been attending the Friday program, he loves it! The kids are exposed to a variety of activities from gardening, cooking, woodworking, and even handling chickens! I had an opportunity to volunteer and Naomi is so wonderful and kind with the kids! They are safe and encouraged in her care! I definitely recommend any of her programs."

 "My children have really enjoyed this class, they are eager for Friday to roll around so they can get to farm school. We are definitely hoping to sign up for future classes."

- Heather L.

 "Heritage Homestead Club quickly became a safe and comfortable space for both of my children who attended. The staff is very professional, while also extremely engaging and creative with the activities they design within this program. The staff curates daily activities that engage all senses, are learning based, and are too fun for the kids to realize that they're learning. Each day brings a fun theme to life with relevant music, books, STEAM based arts and crafts and lessons through storytelling. The children are learning so much faster through play based activities here than in a regular school setting. My children attended summer camp here and enjoyed it more than 5 other summer camps they've been to. The space at Heritage is extremely conducive for kids to be kids, while also learning sharing, caring and kindness. The staff is wonderful and I could not say enough good things about this program! The absolute best in town!"

 "My daughter attended this year and I have so many wonderful things to say. Naomi, her staff and the curriculum were amazing! The amount of creativity, engagement with the children and extensive knowledge she imparted on my daughter and her friends had been invaluable. Thank you so much Naomi. We loved participating in your summer program and can't wait for next year."

What are your policies and safety guidelines?

Safety is our number one priority and children must be able to follow our policies in order to attend the program. These policies are put in place not only to ensure the physical safety of the children but also to create a positive nurturing environment:

• Instructor to child ratios are one instructor per 12 children during the Summer Program and one instructor per 20 children during school year homeschool programs, with assistance of parent volunteers. 

• Children are supervised at all times and are not allowed to leave the group to another area without being accompanied by our staff. Staff are never one-on-one with children. 

• Respectful behavior is required at all times. Bullying and disruptive conduct will not be tolerated. 

• Phones and other screen devices are not allowed. If a child brings a phone it must be put away in their backpack until they are picked up by a parent. 

• We value maintaining a wholesome environment where childhood is sacred. Therefore, discussions regarding inappropriate or non-age appropriate topics are strictly prohibited. 

Are instructors background checked?

 Yes! Instructors and staff employed by Heritage Homestead Club are required to get background checked annually.  

Is the program suitable for children with special needs?

 We strive to create an inclusive environment. Please contact us directly to discuss your child’s specific needs so we can determine how best to support them. 

What will my child do at the program?

 Your child will engage in a variety of activities, including gardening, animal care, cooking, crafting, STEM-based projects as well as outdoor play. We end each day with kid's choice activities to allow more time for socializing and unstructured play. These activities are designed to build practical skills, foster creativity, and encourage teamwork. 

What will my child need to bring?

 Children should wear comfortable, weather-appropriate clothing, closed-toe shoes and dress in layers since we are both outdoors and indoors. A water bottle and sack lunch are also needed. We provide all other supplies and equipment.  

 Are scholarships available?
Yes! Scholarships are available to City of Vista residents. Contact us to learn more about the application process. 

 Do you accept charter funds?

Yes! We accept charter funds from Elite Academy, Pacific Coast Academy, Suncoast Academy, Mission Vista and Scale Leadership Academy. Reimbursement may also be available through other schools.
