I could not have more wonderful things to say about Lil People's Place. Our family has been with LPP for over 5 years now and have experienced the full range of offerings from infant and toddler classes, preschool programs, before and after care AND summer camp. At each level, we have experienced teachers who go above and beyond to know our children as individuals and administration who has supported any question or concern that has come up. Our children's care has always felt tailored to their needs and truly genuine. In addition to their wonderful staff, LPP has brought such a special community of friends for the kids and us in to our lives. This is such a special place for children to learn and grow. I would choose this school over and over again!

Lil Peoples truly feels like a family. Both of my kids started around 3 months old and they love it there! Every teacher knows my kids names and they all truly care about your kids. I love the small homey feel as well as the ability to look at my kids on the live camera! On top of all that I definitely see the effort they put into developing and teaching my kids too, admittedly I didn’t spend much time on colors numbers and alphabet but my son (2.5) knows them all! Highly recommend Lil peoples.

We absolutely love LPP! The admin staff and teachers are all so wonderful, kind, and caring. You can really tell that they genuinely care about the kids AND the families, which means so much to us. Our girls are happy there, and we feel so comfortable leaving them in their care. The facility is always clean and well taken care of, and everyone is so welcoming and easy to communicate with.

Thank you so much for the heartwarming review, Emily! We are so glad to hear that your girls are happy at Lil' People's Place and that your family feels so comfortable with us. Supporting both our kiddos and their families means everything to us. We are truly grateful for your support!
I am finding it hard to put it into words how absolutely amazing Lil' People's Place has been for our family. I always know my kids were in great hands when they are there. Now that they are older, they have so much fun at the summer camp. They are incredibly organized and professional keeping track of everything. I love the camera so we can check in and see how the kiddos were doing. We also used the latchkey bus during the school year which was very helpful. 10/10 Recommend!
Thank you so much for the 10/10 recommendation, Katie! We are so grateful to have supported your family through the years, from early preschool care through summer camp and latchkey. Knowing your kids have so much fun with us and that the cameras provide extra peace of mind, means the world to us!
Enrolling our 3 year old into LPP has been one of my favorite decisions we've made. The instructors are all so wonderful. They are kind, helpful, knowledgeable and oh so sweet to my girl who struggles at drop off and needs a little extra time, attention and hugs. I have not had a single upsetting experience. I get to watch my girl excel and learn so much by being here. She comes home with so many art projects and new things that she learned on that day. I love being able to peek in on the cameras to see what she is doing and how she is doing. I also don't know how a facility and each classroom and bathroom stays so clean with so many kids but they're clean up process amazes me lol! I would recommend LPP to anyone who needed a trusting place to send their babes!

We have had a wonderful experience at Lil Peoples Place over the last 3 years so far! The staff has been accommodating, caring, and nothing short of professional.
