Our Early Learning Programs
From tiny acorns to great oaks — watch your child grow through our four nature-inspired classrooms designed for every stage of early development.
Our Nursery room (where our trees are born) is for children ages 6 weeks through 13 months. As our trees begin to grow, toddlers are transitioned to our Sprouts room for children ages 12 months through 24 months where we find a message in the mess they make! Our Saplings room for children 24 months through 3 years where we learn more about the world around us and our language begins to explode! Great Oaks is for completely potty trained children 3 to 5 years. All our classrooms have small class sizes with two teachers per room. Each classroom has an emergency exit that leads directly to their own individual playground. All our lead teachers have credentials.
Primary Caregiving
We recognize the importance of developing trusting relationships with our families and children. While the teaching teams work together for the overall classroom, each teacher has a smaller group of children within the classroom that they are matched with and responsible for. This provides a consistent person to share information with parents and family members; one who truly knows your child.

HighScope Curriculum
The HighScope Curriculum encourages active learning with children having hands-on experiences that include people, objects, events and ideas. Children's interests and ideas are at the heart of the HighScope program. At Little Acorns, we believe play is truly a child's work.
