Skills that Develop Self-Assurance and Better Self-Understanding

Teachers help your child learn incredible new cognitive and social skills, along with a better understanding of themselves, as keys to their future success. These are some of the most crucial developmental years in your child’s life and they have ample love and support.

Play-Based Letter and Word Recognition Every Morning

Every letter has a sound, and this is how children learn to sound out words. Teachers sound out letters and words all morning long with fun activities that build your child’s vocabulary and prepare them to excel.

Children Establish An Enthusiasm For Reading Through Practice

Reading is the foundation of all learning. Your child explores many subjects of interests through different types of reading materials such as stories, poems, descriptive and educational books, that they love to read, review and to leaf through.

Every child gets a chance to put together a sign, full of pictures, stickers, and decoration, describing their beloved family members, pets, favorite vacations, etc. with photos, stickers, and embellishments.

"The facility is absolutely wonderful..."

The facility is absolutely wonderful. My children right away fell in love with their teacher and love giving hugs hi and bye. My two year screams of excitement as we pull into the parking lot because she’s so excited to be going to LLCA. I would say the facility is always clean, sanitary, safe, and family oriented. I would HIGHLY recommend looking into this facility after touring MANY places around Naperville I’m so beyond happy we chose little learners for our daughters.

"All of the teachers are so great..."

We love Little Learner in Naperville! All of the teachers are so great and really love to see the kids everyday. I love that when I drop my son off, they are so excited to see him, and he smiles whenever he sees them. It’s so comforting to drop your child off with a smile on their face. Special shot out to Ms Jessica and Miss Bre who have worked so hard since this location opened to make it such a wonderful and welcoming place for the kids and parents!

"All the teachers really care..."

Little Learners has been such a breathe of fresh air! All the teachers really care, are always more connected and appear happy and well supported by the company, and it rubs off onto the kids! Our child is now excited to go to daycare and doesn't cry getting dropped off 9 times out of 10, and sometimes won't even run right to us when we pick him up since he's having so much fun! I highly recommend Little Learners!

I currently have a 3 year old and a 16 month old who are enrolled with LLA Yorkville. Our family has been there for about two years, after a poor experience with an in home daycare. When looking for options in the area, we were drawn in by their nice facility, excellent staff, and loving atmosphere. Since enrolling, we truly haven’t looked back, and would recommend it to anyone in the area!

"They keep the kids engaged and active..."

Both our daughter (2yrs) and son (4mos) attend Little Learners in Yorkville and love it! Everyday, my 2yr old comes home saying a new word, singing a new song, or showing off a new dance move. I love that they keep the kids engaged and active throughout the day, and that they get to do all the crafts that I don’t want to do at home bc of the mess! Little Learners gives me the peace of mind that my kids are happy and safe in their hands.

"Staff always has a smile on their faces..."

This is our first year at Little Learner Children’s Academy Crest Hill, enrolling our son at 3 months old, and we are extremely happy with our decision. LLCA has always made us feel welcome and the staff always has a smile on their faces. He is happy and comfortable when he enters classroom. We are continually impressed with lesson plans for the infants, often getting updates, and keeping them on track for their ages, developmentally. We whole-heartedly recommend Little Learner Children’s Academy for children’s early education.

"The teachers are taking great care..."

Being a parent one of the hardest things to do is entrust another person with your child. I have no doubt the directors (Leslie and Robby) and the teachers are taking great care of my princess. She comes home so excited talking about her friends and how much she loves her teachers. She has learned soo much and is becoming the smartest little girl. I love getting her daily reports and seeing the pictures. I would absolutely recommend llca of crest hill!

"The teachers upload memorable moments..."

My son absolutely loves attending pre-k here! The teachers create such a fun hands-on, educational environment that he loves! He is always excited to show me his beautiful crafts and tell me all about his day. The teachers upload memorable moments, friendly reminders, monthly and weekly themes, etc. his meals and nap duration after he leaves. This I absolutely love! I always try to encorpoate what he is learning at school, at home. It is a relief knowing my son is in great hands here!

"It’s comforting to know that my kids are in good hands "
They treat my kids as if they were their own. As a parent, I’m very hesitant about who I choose to care for my children. The staff there are WONDERFUL! It’s comforting to know that my kids are in good hands after I drop them off each day!

"I have only good things to say"
My 2 year old daughter attends the Crest Hill location. The facility is clean, safe and well staffed; my daughter surprises us with songs about the days of the week and months of the year, colors and numbers. They also have an indoor play area which I think is good for the kids. I have only good things to say about this day care!
