Little Sunshine House CDC

At Little Sunshine House CDC we are here to provide the best care and early education for young children. We draw inspiration from the Reggio approach, as well as, from current research. It is our desire to provide a balance of intellectual stimulation, emotional support and physical nurturance for your child.
While it may look like ‘play’ it is our philosophy that experimentation, exploration and questioning are the natural mode of learning for the young child. In Play the Mind is Always Busy.

There are many ways for parents to be involved in their child’s preschool experience. Parents may volunteer in the A.M or P.M program. There is a sign-up with times and activities; before volunteering parents will meet with the Director for a brief orientation. As many parents work full-time there are bi-monthly evening pot-lucks that allow the parents, their children and the teachers a relaxed opportunity to get together and share.
Monthly parent meeting are not required but will be hosted by Little Sunshine house on the second Tuesday of the month.
In addition, two Saturday’s a year are dedicated to maintaining the preschool. Parents are required to fulfill 4 volunteer hours a year. Hours are completed on an individual bases.
