Mission Statement
Little Sprouts Preschool in San Luis Obispo nurtures growing little ones in a loving, safe environment with a high level of positivity and security. Our care and curriculum is purposefully designed to set the foundation for future healthy relationships and the building blocks to support life-long learning.
Core Values
Lovingly Engaging Young Children
Our staff thrives on providing the highest quality of care to your little ones. We treat one another like family and provide the nurturing love that young children need to thrive. Our engaging environment is fun, clean, organized, safe, and peaceful, ensuring all little ones have the necessary foundation to continue learning throughout their lives.
Responsive Communicating
Since vocabulary is limited in the young children we care for, it is even more essential to guarantee a high level of communication and responsiveness with parents. We strive to provide peace of mind that your child is engaged, lovingly cared for, and having fun while in our care.
Confident Caregiving
Our employees learn to support one another and work together in a positive team environment. With strong work ethics, we search for professional growth opportunities to help us lead, teach and care with confidence.
Supporting Our Community
We strive to provide a high-level of care and consideration for our little ones, just as their parents do at home. We support a strong community of working women and men to ensure they can provide for their families without worrying about the level of care their children are receiving.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
At Little Sprouts preschool San Luis Obispo, we believe that young children will develop a love for learning if taught through play in a nurturing, positive and secure environment. We dedicate our time to help your child build their independence by providing a safe place they can explore, create, and learn. Little Sprouts preschool is setting the foundation for healthy, positive relationships and lifelong learning skills.
OUR CURRICULUM
Our preschool in San Luis Obispo will be using the Brightwheel Experience Curriculum. The curriculum follows CA state guidelines for developmental milestones that are expected to be met in preschool. The curriculum has the flexibility to become easier for children who may not be at a particular level yet or more challenging for children who have exceeded the skill. Experience Curriculum incorporates 35 research-based skills into playful games and discovery projects. Throughout the year, children will be focusing on STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) as well as reading and writing practice. Experience Curriculum includes guidelines for our teachers to properly assess children's developmental skills and allows them to document observations in real time. They will then build an ongoing observation report on each child’s profile to keep track of their individual developmental skills. Each activity provided to us is paired with a specific milestone/skill for our teachers to observe and record. We will be using Brightwheel for the documentation and will also hold a yearly parent teacher conference, for students aged 3 and older, to discuss their progress in further detail.
DAILY ACTIVITIES
Each month we will have a theme that will then be broken down into four weekly topics with a schedule for each day. This schedule includes circle time, free play and centers, small group activities, and outside play. These daily learning activities integrate social-emotional, physical, cognitive learning and more.
