Do I need a printer?

Yes, it’s best to print the curriculum so that you or your nanny can engage in hands-on facilitation. Additionally, each set may contain bingo cards, worksheets, and other printables for the children.

Is the curriculum available in digital format only, or can I get a printed version?

Currently, our curriculum is only available in a convenient digital format. However, if there is enough interest, we will work to offer a printed version. Please click here to join the waitlist and let us know if you’re interested in a printed option. We’re here to make learning as accessible as possible!

How do I access the curriculum after purchase?

Once you purchase, the curriculum will be added to your library immediately or on the launch date. Simply log in to your account to access all your purchased products.

Do I need to purchase any additional materials or supplies?

We strive to use common household items wherever possible and offer plenty of alternatives for materials you may not have on hand. Before making any purchases, we encourage you to check what you already have at home. When you need to buy something, we ensure it's affordable and can be used in multiple activities across curriculum sets!

Is there a refund policy if I am not satisfied with the curriculum?

Since our curriculum is a digital product available for download after purchase, we do not offer refunds. However, our mission is to create valuable products for nannies, parents, and children. If you feel we haven't met that goal, please reach out to us at team@stemnannies.com. We’d love to hear from you!

How long will one curriculum set last?

Each curriculum set is designed to be facilitated over the course of one week, with 1 to 2 activities planned per day. Plus, each set includes three or more on-theme playtime extensions for even more fun and learning. Your child will have a full week of engaging play!

Can the curriculum be used with multiple children and ages?

Yes, each curriculum includes differentiated instructions for children at different skill levels. To cater to multiple children, simply increase the quantity of materials needed. For example, if an activity requires two balloons, you can double it to four!

Can children younger or older than the ages listed engage in the activities?

Absolutely! While our curriculum was written with specific age ranges in mind, it is designed to be adaptable. Younger children may need a bit more hands-on guidance, and older children may enjoy added complexity to keep them challenged and engaged.

How much adult involvement is required for the activities?

Our Summer Camp at Home series is designed to be facilitated by an adult or caregiver. We're also working on quiet time and independent play sets for the future. If you're interested in these upcoming options, click here to be notified! We're excited to support your child's learning journey every step of the way.

Are there any screen-free activities included in the sets?

We believe in hands-on, play-based learning. ALL of our curricula is screen-free :)

What is included in each curriculum set?

• An explanation of how to use the curriculum

• A comprehensive list of materials needed, with plenty of alternatives

• 5 to 7 themed curricula including:

  • An overview of the skills children will practice

  • Prep time and instruction

  • Simple, but detailed instructions including ways to engage the child throughout the activity

  • 3 or more complementary playtime extensions to keep the fun going throughout the day

How does this curriculum support my child's learning and development?

We understand the inherent value of play, but its benefits multiply when a knowledgable caregiver helps a child stretch just beyond their current abilities. This gentle guidance is where new skills are developed and solidified.

During each curricular activity, your child will naturally engage in a variety of skills, from motor development to problem-solving and creative thinking. We take it a step further by providing detailed instructions to help you or your nanny support your child's continued development through questions, prompts and structured guidance.

Do you offer any multicultural or bilingual content?

Given our Texas roots, we plan to offer curriculum sets in Spanish, along with bilingual instruction curriculum. We're also developing global curriculum sets that help children explore and appreciate different cultures.
