Our Mission: We wish to provide a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment where children can explore, grow, and thrive. We are committed to fostering each child’s individuality, creativity, and love for learning through engaging activities, compassionate care, and meaningful relationships. We strive to partner with families to create a supportive community, ensuring every child feels valued, confident, and prepared for a bright future. Safety, providing nurturing care, assisting with growth and development, inclusive, respect, partnership and joyful learning are the core values of Little Lights Daycare.
We are an all inclusive daycare! Parents are only required to provide diapers (if needed), wipes (if needed), and a spare change of clothes.
Children in our care will be offered two meals, they are also provided a snack throughout their day. Parents will also receive a calendar of anticipated meals and snacks (also visible on Procare) We abide by the state guidelines for health and nutrition and will ensure the children will be receiving a fulfilling meal. We also are a peanut free and nut free facility. If your child has allergies we offer additional meals to fit the need of that child.
Studies have shown that structure in a child care setting can be beneficial to their growth and development! We have created a structured and fun environment for the children that will allow them to learn, grow, and discover. Your child will be placed in a group with other children around their age in which throughout the day they will cycle through our centers. They will have the opportunity to learn academic, daily living, problem solving, critical thinking, and social/emotional skills.
As technology grows in our society we want to take this opportunity to teach the children about science, technology, engineering, and math. We will have projects and activities that allow the children to do hands-on activities that will motivate learning and developing. We also understand the importance of sensory play in which we will have sensory activities available to the children throughout the day.
At Little Lights Daycare we value not only the children but the family as a whole which is why we provide community resources to our families. Our community board will be updated of local community events as well as local resources that families may need access to. The director will also be able to assist families with finding additional resources if needed.
We understand that some children may need a nap throughout their day or may need a few minutes of quiet time. We offer a quiet/resting area in which cots are provided to the children in which they can sleep or lay down.
We at Little Lights Daycare wish to provide the best services to our children. We offer an initial onboarding training to staff as well as continuous training throughout the year. We also ensure all staff follows state guidelines and regulations by ensuring they are mandated reporters, they complete a health assessment, and abide by maintaining state clearances and ensuring they are up-to-date on their CPR certification.
Our daycare program offers both an academic school year schedule and a summer time schedule. Parents will have the option to renew their packages a minimum of three times per year if their child's needs change. Our academic schedule is from September through May. The summer schedule is from June through August.
We are planning to pair with local businesses to participate in family friendly events including but not limited to things like field trips. We will be advertising community events in our facility as we wish to build a strong and prosperous community to support these children.
An inclusive and diverse environment are a major priority to us. We have hired staff that have the ability to communicate in multiple languages to guarantee all children and families have the ability to feel comfortable and communicate.
Procare is the system we use with our students. We use this to have open communication with our families about their child's care throughout the day. Enrolled student's parents will have access to the daily schedule, meal plans, projects, and will have the ability to receive reports from staff about their child's day
