Wildwood Curiosity Studio is committed to creating a welcoming, respectful, and engaging environment for children and families. Our studio is designed to foster curiosity through hands-on interaction with natural materials, living systems, and creative tools.

​

Nature of the Environment

Wildwood is a hands-on, mixed-material, living environment that includes:

• Glass terrariums and aquariums

• Living plants and ecosystems

• Natural materials (soil, water, sand, etc.)

• Tools and delicate studio equipment

Because of this, participation requires a level of body awareness, self-regulation, and respect for the environment.

 

Accessibility & Participation Limits

We strive to include as many children as possible and will make reasonable accommodations when appropriate.

However, Wildwood Curiosity Studio is not equipped to support:

• Children who require constant one-on-one supervision or intervention

• Children with severe behavioral challenges that impact safety

• Children whose needs may pose a risk to themselves, other participants, or the studio environment

• Situations requiring specialized therapeutic, medical, or behavioral support beyond our staffing capacity

If your child has specific needs, we welcome a conversation prior to enrollment to determine if Wildwood is a good and safe fit.

 

Behavior & Safety Expectations

To protect the safety of all participants and the integrity of the studio, the following expectations are required:

Children must be able to:

• Move safely within the space (no running or rough movement)

• Handle materials, tools, and living elements with care and respect

• Follow directions and respond to guidance from instructors

• Maintain safe emotional regulation, even when frustrated

Not Permitted:

• Throwing objects (including tools, materials, or containers)

• Damaging or intentionally disrupting studio environments (terrariums, aquariums, displays, etc.)

• Aggressive or unsafe behavior toward others

 

Impulse Control & Emotional Safety

Because our studio includes fragile and living elements, impulse control is essential.

Children who:

• Struggle significantly with impulsive actions

• Become physically reactive when frustrated

• Have difficulty maintaining safe boundaries

may not be a safe fit for this environment at this time.

 

Studio Rights

Wildwood Curiosity Studio reserves the right to:

• Pause or remove a child from an activity if safety becomes a concern

• Dismiss a participant if behavior consistently jeopardizes safety or the environment

• Determine, at our discretion, whether the studio is an appropriate fit for a child

 

Partnership with Families

We believe the best experiences happen when families and instructors work together.

By enrolling, families agree to:

• Share relevant behavioral, emotional, or medical information

• Support studio expectations and reinforce them at home

• Partner with us to ensure a safe and positive experience for all

​

Membership & Payment Policy

All membership fees, program fees, workshops, and studio purchases are non-refundable and non-transferable.

​

Wildwood Curiosity Studio maintains limited availability, and enrollment secures your child’s place within the studio.

As a result:

• No refunds will be issued for missed sessions, withdrawals, or scheduling conflicts

• No refunds will be issued in cases of dismissal due to behavior or inability to meet participation expectations

• No prorated adjustments will be made for partial attendance

 

In the event that Wildwood Curiosity Studio cancels a session or program, a credit or refund may be issued at our discretion.

​

Membership Transfer Policy

Wildwood Curiosity Studio memberships are generally non-refundable and non-transferable.

​

However, in the event of significant life circumstances (such as relocation, medical issues, or family hardship), a membership may be transferred to another family under the following conditions:

• All transfers must be approved by Wildwood Curiosity Studio in advance

• The incoming family must:

  • Complete all required registration forms

  • Sign the liability waiver

  • Agree to all studio policies

• The transfer must occur within the same session or membership period

• Wildwood Curiosity Studio reserves the right to decline a transfer request if the incoming participant is not a good fit for the studio environment

 

No refunds will be issued in place of a transfer.

​

Transfers may not be used for resale or profit.
