What Our Families are Saying

Kim N.

My son has attended the preschool program and several summer camps at Little People’s. When my child is in their care, I know that he is in good hands. I can’t say enough wonderful things about this childcare center. Mrs. Lori is a firm believer in doing things the right way, even if they are the most difficult way. The children who attend her programs are always smiling and truly seem to enjoy the teachers. I am especially happy to know that the childcare costs from parents are being used to purchase items, such as playground equipment, turf, tricycles, etc. Being such a thrifty person, Mrs. Lori is always looking for fun things to do without minimum (if any) cost to the parents, such as field trips or guest speakers visiting the center. The staff always does what they can to accommodate your child’s needs, if within reason. Mrs. Lori and her staff genuinely want to address any concern that a parent may have and work together to find a solution. The best referral is word of mouth and in my community, I know several parents who have used Little People’s for their children

Little People’s Christian Academy has been such a blessing in our lives. They provided the love, guidance, and foundation that helped our child grow and excel in school, and we are so thankful to still be part of the family through after-school care and the summer program.

The teachers and staff truly have hearts of gold-always ready to help, always pouring into the children with patience, faith, and love. They have been a light in our lives, and we couldn’t be more grateful.

Mary T.

Little People’s is the first and only daycare our family has used. The staff are always so kind towards us and our child. You can tell she is loved when she comes to school. We recommend little people’s to anyone especially those families with children who need just a little more love than most.

My daughter has been at LPCA for about 2.5 years now and we have no complaints or concerns. She went through some scary medical things shortly after starting at LPCA and I never once felt off or weird when dropping her off during that time, especially while not having a diagnosis. They are very quick to notify the parent of any concerns and my daughter absolutely loves all of the staff there! They all know her by name and she can’t wait to hug each one of them when she sees them! She is now in Pre-k 3 and I am so amazed at all of the things she is learning on a daily basis! I know it’s not easy to trust someone with your child, but they have exceeded my expectations & cleared any doubt that I may have had as a first time mom! It really does feel like a second family & I am so happy my daughter is as loved and cared for as she is while she is there!

Little People’s Christian Academy has been a dream come true. They took my nonverbal shy little girl and helped her grow so self assured she now tells me it’s time for school every morning! The teachers here are so caring and words don’t do justice to how grateful I am. I cant stress enough how truly amazing this center is.

Rebecca M.
