My experiences with Little Orchard Preschool has been nothing but the best. As a mother of two, I highly appreciate their learning style and use of High Scope a active learning curriculum.

If your looking for a preschool here in the Loomis area, look no further, Little Orchard Preschool is the BEST!

The second we stepped inside with our (then) 2 year old, we knew we had found the perfect place for preschool. From the wooden open-ended toys, to the beautiful outside play space, LCP has so many opportunities for play based learning all day. We love the community that comes with a parent participation preschool. But what truly makes this school amazing is the incredible teachers- who are so patient, positive, supportive and fun. My two children talk about them all daily and are so excited to see them each school day. LCP has created a love for school in my kiddos that is such a wonderful introduction to education. I can see how it is laying the foundation for a lifelong love of school and learning, and we can't recommend it highly enough.

It is small and in a country setting, there is lots of land to run, play climb and get dirty, and has lots of natural play, climbing areas with a plethora of materials to explore. The teachers are exceptionally qualified, and in tune with each individual child and their developmental needs. They are a true Montessori school. Every time I pick up my son he has learned so many new things. He is talking more, is happy, asks to come back, and is becoming a more independent, self sufficient, confident, well rounded child. Before attending this school we attended two other preschools (one was a co-op, and the other was a day care/ preschool). Neither of those programs were remotely as high of caliber as The Children's House. This school has really become a blessing for us as it provides an incredible amount of enrichment and exploration with individual attention and higher standards for our child. My only regret is not starting with children's house sooner!

I've received phone calls almost everyday for the last 2 weeks asking to reschedule and every time I've answered I've explained and made it explicitly clear that I would call to reschedule and they did not need to call me so frequently. I've started letting their phone calls go to voicemail.

From the very beginning, we felt welcomed, supported, and confident that our son was in the right place. Ms. Amanda and Ms. Emma have created a nurturing, thoughtful, and engaging environment where each child is supported as an individual. Our son absolutely adores them and genuinely loves going to school every day. Ms. Amanda's depth of experience is truly remarkable--22 years in education, a BA in Child Development, an MA in Education, a Montessori credential for ages 3-6, and she's even a certified Positive Discipline coach. Her knowledge, paired with her warmth and intentionality, is reflected in everything she does. She meets each child where they are and helps them grow. We couldn't ask for a better start to our son's education. We only wish we could stay here forever! My husband and I highly recommend Turkey Creek Montessori.

Both boys grew so much academically and emotionally under Ms. Amanda's guidance. I love that she supported them in their interests and in the way they like to learn. There is so much research and thought that is put into everything the kids do. This isn't a daycare, it's a quality educational program.
