WHY SWIM WITH OTTERS?

Nurtured By Nature and Animal Educators is committed to fostering a love for animals through interactive programs, which bring the public face to face with unique animals, in a safe and controlled environment. It is only through a bond with our planets animals that we, as co-dwellers, will feel a heightened sense of responsibility to ensure their preservation.

The purpose of Nurtured By Nature is to:

  • Foster hope and well being to children with life threatening to terminal illness through physical interactions with nature.
  • Promote a healthy life outlook and healing for children who have suffered severe emotional trauma through physical interactions with nature.
  • Inspire a bond between humankind and animals, promoting preservation.
  • Create innovative and sustainable conservation projects.

The purpose of Animal Educators is to:

  • Provide a foundation for our employees, and for the care and wellbeing of our charges, in a way that is sustainable and beneficial for both.
  • Animal Educators is the provider of most of the opportunities and funding used by Nurtured by Nature

  • BEST DAY EVER!

    Was this real life? From the moment we arrived at Nurtured by Nature we were welcomed into their amazing home. The animals are incredibly well taken care of and loved, plus everyone was knowledgeable and passionate! This was truly one of the greatest days of my life.

    The hands on experience is something that I will never forget! Nurtured by Nature works with some amazing organizations, including Make a Wish, further proving how remarkable the people at this phenomenal facility are!

    This was such an amazing experience! I would absolutely go back again, and I have already referred quite a few friends should go as well. Such wonderful animals they get to see , experience and interact with.

    The Otters were so much fun and so playful it definitely was one of my biggest dreams to come true. The pool is heated, and the staff cannot be nicer. Thank you, it really was an amazing experience and I will definitely be back to see you guys and the Otters!

  • MAKE-A-WISH

    We visited as part of my daughters Make A Wish trip. What an incredible experience. They went above and beyond to make sure Cassidy as well as the rest of the family had the most amazing experience!

    They are clearly committed to the care of their animals and want to share their love and knowledge of each of them with us.

    Thank you again to Wendy, Kevin, Brittani, and Dave from the bottom of my heart.

  • BUCKET LIST

    One of the highlights of my life. A true dream come true and an item checked off the bucket list. So thankful to have been able to be part of something so unique. The animals are treated like part of the family and are extremely well taken care of. I enjoyed interacting and learning about all of the creatures.

    The highlight of the day was getting a kiss from one of the otters! I will treasure these memories forever. Thank you for opening your home to us, and for all that you do for the animals and children.
