The Little Nest believes in providing families with a fun, happy place for their children to learn and grow! We are a full time childcare that has a preschool component mixed in. Our day is full of playing and learning! We focus on early literacy skills, math, fine/gross motor work along with social/emotional skills. We spend a lot of time in free play outside as well as in our indoor playrooom. Mrs. Formiller and Ms. Katie taught Kindergarten together for many years and are thrilled to bring their skills and love to their own little school!
The curriculum at The Little Nest is currated by us to meet the physical, emotional, social, and educational needs of each child. We offer a play-based approach that encourages exploration, problem-solving, and critical thinking. We will make sure your kiddo is ready for Kindergarten!
I have been a teacher since 1999! Most of my teaching experience is in Kindergarten but I have taught preschool and 2nd grade as well. It has always been my dream to have my own little school some day. That day is here!
I love this work with all my heart. There is nothing that beats the satisfaction of guiding a child as they learn to read, learn how to be friends and play well with each other, etc. I believe in play-based learing for little ones but also in learning the foundational skills needed for school. We will work on social skills, fine motor and gross motor work, alphabet knowledge, phonemic awareness, phonics, math, reasoning, etc, all while having a great time!
Ms. Katie has been my Kindergarten assistant for many years. We are quite the pair when it comes to educating young kids! She is my right hand and I can't imagine doing this without her. She is a marvelous human being who is incredibly caring, loving, creative, helpful, intuitive and many other amazing attributes. I can guarantee your kids will love her as much as I do!
