We are committed to the families we serve. We strive to give parents complete peace of mind, while being a shining example of what a quality early childhood learning center should be.

    Our philosophy is simple. Little Jan Learn and Play is here to foster each child's cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development through intentional, play-based STEAM learning in small, enriched learning environments. We offer your children the education, fun, and safety they deserve, while you recieve the peace of mind that comes from knowing your child is in the best of hands. Each day promises an exciting new adventure, and we make sure each child experiences the joys of a truly enriching environment.
