Little Learners Preschool, Albemarle County

"So my daughter has never been one to want to go to school. I decided to start with just a three day a week preschool to get her prepared to go to kindergarten. Within just a couple days, she was begging to go to preschool!!! She was always disappointed when it was a Monday or Friday because there was no school that day. We have absolutely loved our experience here and Miss April is amazing!!! I've never had a little one so excited about going to school. My daughter has made some great friends and learned so much this year. It has pushed her to be more confident and willing to push herself and try new things!!! I highly recommend the preschool to anyone! We wouldn't change our experience for the world!"

"My daughter is an older preschooler who we decided not to send to kindergarten this year, although she narrowly made the cut-off. Having attended a full year of preschool before, one concern I had when looking for a preschool this year was that she would be challenged and engaged. And this one definitely fills the bill! She is excited to go every day, and always come home from school bursting with stories to tell. The curriculum uses a variety of methods, so the children are always doing new things and learning in different ways. She does science, letters, numbers, crafts, outdoor exploration--and loves it all. Ms. April is kind and loving and is adored by all her students. We have been so happy with our choice, and know that our daughter will be ready to make the step up to kindergarten next year."

"“Miss April is highly professional and easily recognizes children’s special needs, both academic and emotional. She has patiently taught my son to overcome his fear of glue! She also took note of his favorite book off a Facebook post, and made sure to have that book available to him on his first day of class. Miss April does a wonderful job of effectively communicating with parents. She is able to completely address all concerns that are brought to her attention and help parents feel more comfortable with their children’s preschool experience. Miss April is able to keep her classroom organized and the students under control while still making the atmosphere fun and exciting every day.""

"My son used to be very shy, and joining this preschool class has made such a huge impact on his life! The small in-home setting was just what he needed to feel comfortable to break out of his shell. In the 2 years he has been attending, he has grown so much socially as well as academically. I know he will be ready for Kindergarten! Ms April has been so understanding, friendly, organized and fun! I love that there is always a set schedule and planned themes, but also so much room for creativity. We love this preschool!"

"My daughter went to this preschool for almost two years. She loved it!! I appreciated the smaller setting, and I think it was just what my daughter needed. Ms. April is always very positive with the kids. She does a great job of making learning fun. She is great at communicating upcoming activities and is very organized. My daughter couldn't wait to go on preschool days, and that says a lot."
