🎨 Creators Program
At My Little Hearts, our Creators Program is thoughtfully designed for energetic, imaginative three-year-olds who are ready to explore the world around them. This stage is full of wonder, and we embrace it with a curriculum that nurtures independence, emotional growth, and joyful learning.

Children thrive with consistency and choice. Our daily schedule includes:
- Morning circle time and community building
- Hands-on learning centers
- Outdoor play and gross motor activities
- Rest and reflection periods
- Free play that encourages imagination and self-direction
🌍 Inclusive & Culturally Responsive Environment
We celebrate every child’s background and identity. Our classrooms feature books, music, and materials that reflect a wide range of cultures, languages, and traditions helping children feel seen, respected, and inspired.
🧑🏫 Caring Educators & Personalized Support
Our teachers are trained in early childhood development and culturally responsive care. We meet each child where they are whether they’re mastering new skills or navigating big emotions with patience, encouragement, and love.
🤝 Family Partnership & Communication
We believe families are our partners. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and insights into your child’s growth. We welcome your voice, your traditions, and your dreams for your child.
