OUR MISSION

Our mission at Little School Child Care Center is to provide a safe and loving place where children can learn and grow at their own pace. By providing children with opportunities to explore,  experiment, and have meaningful social interactions, we foster  independence which leads to higher self esteem and self knowledge.  

Through this awareness of self and community, we strive to promote peace  and kindness towards others.

We believe each child is unique, so we commit to  finding and building each child’s competencies and helping each child  reach ambitious and feasible goals. We commit to developmentally  appropriate practice, formally and informally observing progress towards  developmentally appropriate milestones using the following tools:

We believe teacher knowledge and decision making driving educational outcomes, so we entrust skillful teachers with the care of your child. On  average, our teachers possess five and a half years of experience with A  Mother’s Touch, and all are deeply vested in our mission.

We believe children succeed by building character, so we make character our priority! Our teachers create authentic experiences to reveal, build, teach, and learn from our children and families about character. We strive 

to help raise children who are kind and committed to creating greater good in our communities. Our preschool 

and kindergarten programs use the Second Step Early Learning and Kindergarten curriculums to explicitly teach executive function skills, which research has proven to be the foundation for self-regulation and 

social-emotional competence. 

We believe children learn through play and social experience, so we commit to providing children with uninterrupted time to play  deeply and imaginatively in the areas of their choice. We ensure all  curriculum choices align with this belief, directly and imaginatively  engaging our children through play.

We believe a child’s education begins in infancy, so we create a cohesive curriculum from infancy to 

kindergarten to  support age-appropriate development and respond to your child’s needs  over time. 

Our preschool and kindergarten programs prioritize:
