About Us
Our Childcare Center
- Nestled in a quiet corner of Knoxville, our preschool is a hidden gem on Hospitality Circle. Centrally located in the heart of Knoxville, we're conveniently close to major roads like Middlebrook Pike and I-40, making drop-offs and pick-ups a breeze for busy families. Just minutes from West Town Mall and surrounded by parks and family-friendly amenities, our peaceful setting offers both serenity and accessibility, creating the perfect environment for young learners to thrive. With years of experience, we know the recipe for providing a comfortable and happy space for children-a safe, bright and positive environment where children can explore, bond and imagine.
Our Team
-
We wholeheartedly appreciate what a big decision it is for parents to entrust us with their child. Your confidence largely rests on the people who will take care of your most valuable asset! This is why our most valuable asset is our staff. We pride ourselves on having committed, experienced educators with a long history with us. Building relationships with staff creates trust and security for both parents and children. We are licensed by the TN Department of Human Services. Our staff is background checked, and trained in CPR/First Aid.
We are compliant with all training requirements, and our staff come from a background in Early Childhood Education both in the field, and academically.
Our Philosophy
At Little Playschool, we understand that children come into our school with ranges of abilities, aptitudes, talents, and experiences. We provide opportunities for every child to pursue his or her special talents and to show areas of strength by presenting experiences that echo children’s interests, emerging skills and abilities. We encourage children to experiment, explore, and follow their own interests. Our goal is to provide a learning environment that is inspired by children’s natural sense of wonder and to help them become independent and confident learners. Our curriculum goal at Little Playschool is focused around teacher- and child-initiated learning activities in eight main curriculum content areas: Approaches to Learning; Language & Literacy; Social and Emotional Development; Mathematics & Reasoning; Physical Development; Diversity and Social Studies; S.T.E.A.M., and Creative Arts.
- Social/Emotional
- Physical
- Diversity & Social Studies
- S.T.E.A.M.
- Language & Literacy
- Mathematics & Reasoning
- Creative Arts
- Approaches to Learning
Little Playschool Difference
Little Playschool is pioneering a holistic approach to Early Childhood Education that sets us apart from all other preschools in the Knoxville area. Our Holistic Health Curriculum not only teaches children about physical, emotional, and social well-being but also involves them in daily activities in cooking, nutrition, gardening, fitness & mindfulness! This hands-on experience fosters healthy eating habits and life skills from a young age.
Our hope is that you and your child join us at Little Playschool and become a valued member in our connected and caring community.
