About the Provider

Description: Little Beavers Preschool was founded by Al and Jan East in 1973. As OSU graduates and avid Beaver sports fans (Al played in the 1964 Rose Bowl) they knew the perfect name for their business had to be “Little Beavers”! The preschool was designed to provide quality childcare in a loving and home-like atmosphere. Our commitment to these goals remains strong today and is evidenced in every classroom. Jan is a pillar in the Corvallis child care community and was recently appointed by the Governor to the Commission of Children and Families. The warm, nurturing and educational environment that is a hallmark of Little Beavers is a direct result of Jan’s passion for serving children and her many years of experience working with families. Our teachers encourage learning at each child’s developmental level. We implement monthly curriculum themes using stories, music, arts and crafts. Math and science concepts are introduced through hands on activities using our sensory tables and experiments. Children have many opportunities to develop imaginative and social skills in our dramatic play areas and manipulative centers. Friendships are built as we encourage children to develop problem solving skills and promote cooperative work and play.
