Co-opNapa Valley Nursery School (NVNS)

Established, long-running private preschool in Napa (since 1982) with year-round programming and both morning and full-day options depending on availability

This is the nature school option with clear logistics: published tuition by days, half-day vs full-day blocks, and an outdoor-classroom learning model with some bilingual (English/Spanish) elements baked in.
Nature/OutdoorLe Petit Elephant Nursery & Preschool
If you want outdoor time to be a core part of the day, not a side feature, this is one of the clearest in Napa about it (they describe up to ~5 hours outside daily, plus a full schedule breakdown and broad ages).
