At Little Acorns Child Care, we offer programs for Infants, Toddlers, Preschoolers, and School-agers. These programs include developmentally appropriate schedules, our own unique child-led curriculum, activities that promote school readiness, and extra programs such as Spanish, Music, and Sojourn.

Our Goal to Enrich at Little Acorns

As part of our mission, one of our main priorities in our programs is enrichment. We enrich the environment to promote learning through the guidance of our exclusive curriculum, by organizing our classrooms into learning centers, by following developmentally appropriate schedules, and by offering extra enrichment programs.   We know that children need a safe and friendly environment to grow.

Our Classroom Organization

At Little Acorns the classrooms are organized into the following learning centers: dramatic play, art, library, block building, sensory, and manipulatives. The learning centers provide opportunities for learning in many different ways and with many different styles. The toys, furniture, and supplies in each classroom are also organized with pictures and word labels to provide a print rich environment to promote literacy.

Our Nurturing Schedules

At Little Acorns, we know that the teachers need to provide a delicate balance between control and freedom to promote the desired sense of security.   That's why at Little Acorns we aim to reach that perfect balance of structure and free choice.   The general schedule that the teacher follows provides the structure and guidance that children need, while the flexibility of the schedule allows for child led ideas and initiatives.   Each classroom at Little Acorns has a flexible schedule that is catered to the developmental needs of the children in that room.
