Welcome to Little Masters Childcare Center, a warm, play-based early learning environment thoughtfully designed for children aged 0 - 3 years
At Little Masters, we believe every child is unique and deserves to grow in a space filled with love, respect, and discovery. From sensory exploration to music, movement, and language-rich activities, we support your child’s journey with intention and care.
We’re more than just a daycare — we are a place where young children begin to understand the world, build friendships, and develop confidence at their own pace, surrounded by caring educators who celebrate their individuality every step of the way.
At Little Masters Childcare Center, our mission is to create a warm, loving, and supportive environment where every child can thrive. We focus on fostering growth in all essential areas—physical, emotional, social, cognitive, and intellectual—ensuring that children reach their full potential. We believe that play is fundamental to a child’s development, and through it, we encourage confidence, self-expression, and positive interactions with others. Every child is unique and special, and we are committed to accepting each one unconditionally, celebrating their individuality while helping them grow into confident and compassionate individuals.
As teachers, our role is to facilitate the play environment where children can develop concepts as well as learn how to be independent. It is also our job to provide a stimulating and emergent environment where positive reinforcement and encouragement make learning possible. At Little Masters Childcare Center, we believe that play is the cornerstone of a quality early childhood program and that it is through play that children learn about themselves and their world. Play fosters a child’s physical, social, emotional and intellectual development. It is our goal to provide a child developmentally appropriate play-based program, which meets the needs of each child. As children play, their brain develops, their muscles grow strong, and they develop good social and life skills such as learning to share, taking turns, making choices and understanding the feelings of others. Also, play helps children learn who they are, what they can do and allows them to explore and practice how the world works. Play increases children’s ability to concentrate and cooperate with others. Most importantly, play allows the child to develop positive relationships with other children and negotiate their needs.
Our program offers full-time care for children ages 0-36 months. We help children become comfortable and secure in a new group setting and independent of primary family members. We augment each day with programming that emphasizes artistic expression, music, movement, science, exploration, and language. As infants and toddlers develop, additional learning outcomes include developing self-feeding skills, enhanced coordination, potty training and linguistic comprehension. We incorporate equipment and activities that engage children through various textures, sounds, and sensory experiences. These play-based opportunities support and enhance all areas of development.
