Description: Little World Cooperative Nursery School, Inc. is a non-profit, non-discriminative, state licensed cooperative preschool for children 2 1/2 to 5 years old. Our school was founded in 1977 by a group of mothers who wanted to provide their preschoolers a quality, affordable preschool education with an emphasis on parent involvement. This philosophy still applies today. Little World encourages parents to aide in our classrooms. We understand there are some that are not able to participate as an aide in their child’s class on a monthly basis so we offer a non-aiding option for those who cannot but still want to be members of Little World. Little World also offers care for siblings 0-12 years of age in our before and after care area that is open from 6AM to 6PM.
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.

Horrible place where the 2/3 year old teacher screams at the toddlers and handles them roughly. Director (Stacy) who cares only about how much money she can profit. This is not a low cost alternative to daycare. It's not even a last resort. Don't send your kids here, they only care about money here, not your kids. My child begged me every day not to leave her there, I wish I would have listened to her sooner.
