The Preschool & Pre-K Classrooms

In our preschool and pre-K classrooms, children thrive as they channel their curiosity and energy into playful exploration, expressing their individuality and celebrating the unique qualities of their friends.

Preschool Classroom

Ages 2.9 years to 5 years

The preschool and pre-K years are a time of tremendous growth as children expand their processing, social, and foundational learning skills. During this developmental stage, children are eager to learn, explore, and express themselves. Our preschool and pre-K classrooms are designed to support this critical period by fostering independence, creativity and a love of learning. We provide a rich, engaging environment that encourages hands-on learning, social interaction, and skill-building through play across key areas of your child’s development. 

Nurturing curious minds and caring hearts

Preschoolers and pre-K children are naturally curious and eager to connect with others. Our program nurtures this curiosity and fosters strong relationships by providing experiences that encourage critical thinking, problem-solving, and meaningful play. As children explore early literacy, math, and foundational academic skills, they also learn empathy, cooperation, and conflict resolution through guided social interactions and group play. Our caring teachers model positive behavior, support emotional growth, and help children build the self-confidence they need to thriveboth in learning and in life.

Growing strong bodies, bright minds, and creative spirits

As children grow, they develop the physical, cognitive, and creative skills that form the foundation for lifelong learning. In our schools, active play on state-of-the-art playgrounds helps build strength, balance, and coordination, while fine motor skills are strengthened through hands-on activities like drawing, cutting, and writing. Language and literacy development is woven into every part of the day through storytelling, singing, and engaging reading instruction that builds vocabulary and fosters a love of books. At the same time, our thoughtfully designed environments invite children to explore the world through art, music, and imaginative playsparking creativity, building confidence, and encouraging new ways of thinking and understanding.

My child is 8 months old and has been enrolled at Little Sprouts in the infant room since age 4 months. I found the facility to be updated and clean in terms of supplies and equipment. Administration and teachers/ care takers provide great communication with parents. I love our infant teachers Jenna and Brooke.

I have worked with Little sprouts for 13 years and counting- and now I have my infant enrolled at the center. I love my years of teaching, and I’m so thankful for an amazing environment for my son to learn and grow. Walking into the school there is so much evidence of learning, and we are filled with an amazing group of staff that has much experience with children. I’m happy to work here with people who share a love for kids just like I do!

My wife and I can't say enough positive things about Little Sprouts Watertown. Our 3 year old has been there for just over 6 months and absolutely loves the center. The ability to get outside and be active on their playgrounds is fantastic. The teachers have been so supportive and nurturing as our daughter develops. Just an amazing place!

Ms. Nicole and Ms. Tanisha are the best! Our son has been going to Little Sprouts in Wilmington for a couple of months and we are very impressed with the care and early education he receives at a such young age. He is in the toddler class and through play and activities he is learning so much. The teachers are caring, competent and really stick to a routine and a curriculum. Thank you Little Sprouts and the entire staff at the Wilmington location!

Our 2 year old has been going to Little Spouts since he was 5 months old and we couldn't be happier! His teachers Ms. Nicole, Ms. Donna, and Ms. Jess are amazing! We feel so grateful to have teachers who are so kind and engaging. I'm so impressed by the range of activity they plan - everything from art, to music, science projects, and dramatic play. Our son has learned so much from school and we have been so happy with the Little Sprouts team!
