Our Philosophy & Curriculum

At Little Willow, we aim to make a difference in children’s lives. We provide children with support, confidence, and independence by getting to know each of our students individually, implementing play, and helping children foster friendships among their classmates.

Your child will enter Little Willow each day with the ability to openly love and learn. We strive to instill a sense of autonomy and compassion in our little ones.
As devoted and driven teachers, we are passionate about feeding the curiosity of our young ones. Our goal is to create an environment in which both students and parents can feel confident in our ability to care for our client population.

Our play-based curriculum provides children with the freedom to have fun while discovering and exploring the world and their individual interests. With children’s minds expanding at such a rapid pace during the formative years of life, incorporating play to grow their imaginations benefits the overall brain development of our little ones.

From birth to age three are the most important years in a child's development. Kids learn best through doing, which is why play is our central focus. Pretend-play or “make-believe” is crucial to understanding social norms. As kids pretend to be astronauts, chefs, doctors, and more, they are exploring various roles they see in the real world. Focusing on play allows children to learn from one another, gaining social skills, as they learn more about themselves.

We Support Learning Through Play

Fun, hands on activities that allow children to learn through experience.
Customized lesson plans the teachers develop based on children’s interests and adapt to the children’s developmental needs.
Warm, nurturing classrooms that promote exploration through literacy, science, arts, and mathematics.
A daily schedule in each classroom ensures children have time for independent exploration and discovery every day.
Encouraging teachers to support the children to make their own choices, to explore their own passions and interests, to bounce back from obstacles that they might encounter, and to help children learn to succeed in all environments.
We allow our children to overcome failure to develop confidence, resilience, determination, and self-awareness.
