At Little People’s Day Care, Inc. we believe children learn through experiences and role modeling by observations and playing out their desires. It is our intentions to instill in each child character, respect, accomplishments, manners, and well being at all times. Parent participation is always encouraged. You can visit, volunteer, or send items for children at our facility as you would like while your child is at the center.

Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
