Why Choose Little Foot?
Small Group Setting: With limited enrollment, we ensure individual attention and a personalized experience for your child. A small group setting is crucial for children as it fosters a sense of security and belonging. Your child will feel more comfortable expressing themselves, asking questions, and forming meaningful connections with their peers. It also allows our staff the flexibility to tailor activities to your child’s interests while promoting social confidence, emotional strength, and community.
Expert Guidance: Our experienced staff are dedicated to creating a supportive and nurturing environment for every child. Our staff brings a depth of understanding and experience that ensures activities are not only engaging but also enriching your child's social and emotional well-being. All of our staff hold advanced degrees or certifications.
Focus on Holistic Well-being: Our holistic approach addresses the emotional, social, and physical aspects of well-being and supports healthy emotional and social growth with an emphasis on empathy, cooperation, and resilience. Our groups use collaborative play and shared experiences to highlight the connections between our emotional world and our bodies.
