Discovery Schoolhouse provides a warm, nurturing, supportive, educational, and enjoyable experience for children from 15 months through kindergarten, all year round, all day long. Our toddler and preschool programs run 7:00 in the morning until 6:00 in the evening the entire calendar year, with a variety of scheduling options available. They do not follow a school year calendar, and can children enroll at any time, all year round. Our developmental kindergarten program runs 8:00-5:00 on a school-year calendar. with 7AM drop-off and 6PM pickup options available, and enrolls children five years old in the fall or early winter, without an strict age cutoff. We always have toddler and preschool children enrolled for a variety of the available schedules, with some children attending “full time,” five days a week, 7:00 to 6:00, and other children attending only 2 or 3 days 8:00 – 3:00. Many parents send their children to Discovery Schoolhouse so that their children will have a positive social experience with other children, learn how to be friends, and learn about the world. We want Discovery Schoolhouse to be just right for every child who enrolls! We are real, old fashioned preschool!…The program uses an interactive, child-centered, developmentally appropriate approach which assumes that children learn through active participation and discovery (which is just our way of saying that we are a very “play-based” program). The curriculum emphasizes child-initiated activities, fostering independence, social skills, respecting cultural diversity, creativity, and individuality.

Welcome To Little Llama! At Little Llama Child Care, we provide a well-rounded learning experience for your child by focusing on their physical and emotional well-being, fostering their curiosity, and encouraging them to become adventurous and active. We proudly offer a better teacher to child ratio than most schools in the area and ensure our parents are always very involved. Your child's safety and well-being are our utmost priority, which is why we provide excellent service that promotes happy and healthy kids! Our teachers utilize an eye-to-eye teaching method, getting on your child's level to help encourage engagement, acceptance, and understanding. We teach our kids to respect other people's boundaries and think about how their actions can affect others. We send home daily pictures and notes detailing your child's experiences, so you always know what their day entailed. Our preschool program was just opened so we currently have just a couple of students with 2 teachers all the time, so if you think that you child is a bit shy in a big setting or requires some extra time and attention to adjust to a new environment, than this program will be a perfect fit for your little one. Plus (in my opinion), it’s easier for preschoolers to start together as a new group other than joining an already formed group. Our program is exceptionally interactive and fun! We like messy activities, experiments, and new experiences! We love being outdoors! We have weekly music classes with an amazing teacher and adding more classes for our curriculum!
