Little Meadows Early Childhood

Our Mission

Little Meadows Early Childhood Center, Inc. will maintain a leadership role as an early childhood agency dedicated to excellence in service to children. We are dedicated to complying with the requirements of the Federal IDEA, and to ensuring that the educational needs of all children and their families are met by our staff. Through partnership with individuals, families, and the community we will provide the resources to enable young children to reach their full potential in life. We maintain a strong cultural integrity with respect to children and their families, and employ staff with the highest ethical standards.

We offer afternoon toddler playgroups.

We offer preschool classes for children with and without disabilities.

Children are provided a quality early childhood experience in a safe, comfortable, nurturing environment. Focus is placed on child-initiated learning, language development and social/emotional growth.

A high staff/child ratio ensures that each child is given individual attention when needed.

Little Meadows Early Childhood Center is dedicated to meeting the varied needs of all young children. We recognize that the early years are a time of rapid intellectual and physical growth.

Children require stimulating and challenging experiences as they move from one developmental stage to another. At Little Meadows we capture these growth opportunities by providing carefully selected developmentally appropriate activities which ensure success, build self-esteem and are fun.
