Company Description

Little Amigos Early Learning Center offers a caring, nurturing, and encouraging environment for children to grow and learn. In this safe, loving Center, children will develop physically, socially, cognitively, and emotionally. Both English and Spanish are spoken throughout the day and children are taught in both languages. Our infant and young toddler classes are primarily full immersion environments, with very little English spoken to the children, whereas our older children are taught in both English and Spanish in order to ensure clear communication with our students who are developing their own language skills. Whether learning a second language or retaining the family native language, there is great value in this exposure. While children explore and discover, play and learn, they will always be treated with warmth to create a trusting relationship among teachers, children, and families. Through stories, songs and play, children will learn the Christian values of love, kindness, and gratitude. Children who are introduced to these concepts will be able to draw on them for a lifetime.

Little Amigos Early Learning Center welcomes children and families of all faiths and does not discriminate with regard to services on the basis of race, religion, cultural heritage, political belief, national origin, disability, marital status, or sexual orientation. The Christian component of the curriculum is non-intrusive and optional for families.
