​
Child Led Free Play
Our philosophy is built around free play and letting children explore the world at their own pace. While we do have age appropriate planned activities, we encourage the children to ask questions and try different activities when they feel they are ready.
Outdoor Play
We have two separate outdoor play areas so we can spend our days outside exploring the world we live in. We spend time outdoors year-round, when weather appropriate.
brightwheel®
We use the #1 platform for early childhood education, brightwheel® for managing attendance, billing, enrollment, learning plans, parent communication, and much more.
Play Based Learning
At Little Lakers each teacher follows their own curriculum, making sure to hit all of the domains.
Social-Emotional, Physical, Fine-Motor, Cognitive, Creative, and Language Development.
