Charlottesville Preschools

Welcome to Little Hearts In Home Daycare. My name is Silvana Liguria. I am the owner and provider of Little Hearts Daycare. I was born and raised here in Charlottesville, VA. I graduated from Albemarle High School in 1997 and attended PVCC where I studied Business Management and Administration. I have two children G., 12 years old, L., 7 years old and a 2 year old. In 2011 we where selected to be the March of Dimes ambassador family in honor of my son and I have continued to support this organization to help with parents and children in need. I would be honored if giving the opportunity to care for loved one. Please feel free to ask me further questions.

Mission and Vision:
My mission at Little Hearts is to provide a safe, educational and caring environment for the children ages infants to 4 years old. Committed to the families I strive to give parents complete peace of mind, while seen as a shining example of what childcare should me.

The ultimate vision is for parents to feel good about the childcare choice and that the children are safe, engaged, and smiling. Little Hearts is here to offer your children the care, comfort, fun, and safety they deserve.

Our lovely Mill Creek location is conveniently located off of Avon Street Extended, 2 miles from PVCC and downtown Charlottesville at the entrance to Mill Creek and Foxcroft. Many of our families live in downtown Charlottesville, Scottsville, and lake Monticello.

Our Mill Creek location was completely renovated head to toe in 2017 with brand new flooring, classroom equipment, rugs, and lighting as well as freshly painted interiors - everything you can think of we remodeled! When you walk into our school you will see our beautiful lobby complete with a Director desk and parent lounge including a coffee station (our parents love bringing in their coffee cup in the mornings for complimentary coffee when they drop off their children!) Interior and exterior security cameras have also been installed throughout our building for administrative use.

The Mill Creek property includes a beautiful nature trail that lines our property with a variety of learning stations. We have 3 large playgrounds divided by age group and we are planning on expanding each playground in the near future for even more space for our children to explore. In the summertime, our children love to cool off outside on our splash pads for sprinkler play! Another fun thing our children enjoy outside is our massive organic garden on our pre-k playground. We call this vegetable garden our 'magic' garden because the vegetables that grow in this garden are always massive in size! There is something magical about the soil our veggies grow in! We are incredibly proud to be Outdoor Classroom Project - Level 2 Certified! We are Virginia's only Outdoor Classroom Project certified school - We have tents, tables, outside hand-wash stations, sensory exploration tables, and so much more!
