We are proud to partner with Ms. Alicia, a
certified music therapist. Ms. Alicia leads music
class at Little World of Learning each Tuesday
morning from 8:30-9:00 am.

Our emergent curriculum is based on the developing
interests, ideas, and questions of the children within
our program. Together with their peers, children
explore our carefully created and intentionally created
environment, develop problem-solving skills, learn
communication skills and prepare for kindergarten.

teacher from Storytime with Stacey. Ms.
Courtney leads a literacy class at Little World of

Each January, I give families a yearly calendar showing days closed
for holidays and vacations. This makes it easy for families to
prepare and arrange for alternative care during our closings.
Yes! We provide breakfast between 7:00am and 8:00am,
lunch and a.snack daily. This is included in your weekly
tuition.
Your child will be made comfortable away from the other children under
staff supervision and you must pick up within 60 minutes. Your child
will then be excluded the following day and until symptoms subside, they
are feeling well and no longer contagious.
YES! Getting enough rest is essential to the development and
health of each child. Rest aids in the development of a strong
Immune system and nervous system. A rested body
encourages good behavior and optimum learning capabilities.
All children rest each afternoon for 1.5-2 hours.
Tuition is due each and every week regardless of a child’s attendance.
The only time tuition is reduced is if Ms. Audra needs to close and has
already used her vacation and personal/sick days for the year.

am and 4:45pm.
Frequently Asked Questions
parent of 3 year old
What our families are saying
‘My daughter was incredibly shy and withdrawn,
she has blossomed at Ms. Audra’s and I am
forever thankful. She is wonderful and I wouldn’t
want my child in the care of another provider.”
“I have been so impressed with Audra as a
provider. We transferred from a center due to a
response my daughter had.when we drop off now
she runs in smiling and happy. I feel very lucky to
have found Audra.”
