Little Inspirations Child Care Center, Menasha

Little Inspirations is a state licensed, family owned group child care center which is committed to a secure and fun learning environment for every child at each stage of their development. We take pride in offering a clean atmosphere with an open-door policy to encourage you to stop by anytime to visit your child or check out our facility. Our convenient hours allow us to be open early and open late to help meet the needs of working families or single parents. CURRICULUM Our curriculum emphasizes music and rhythm, arts and crafts, memory games, small muscle development and age-appropriate social and self-help skills. Each week has a different theme that is promoted in the classrooms. We believe that by using the WI model Early Learning Standards as our guide, we will be integrated with high-quality assessment, professional development, and family connection resources to create a well-rounded program that addresses the needs of early childhood education professionals, children, and their families. Little Inspirations will provide a loving, safe, and secure atmosphere in which each child has an opportunity to develop emotionally, socially, physically, and intellectually. Our programming is designed to meet and exceed the developmental needs of young children. We provide experiences that challenge and support each child's cognitive, language, social, emotional, physical, and creative development. During the course of the day at Little Inspirations, each child has opportunities to create, explore the environment, develop personal interaction skills, and learn problem solving skills and concepts through first hand experiences. We encourage exploration and involvement. OUR STAFF Shauna, the Center Director, has Associates Degrees in both Early Childhood Education and Business Communication and Management. All of the teachers are dedicated professionals who enjoy what they do and will do everything in their power to help your child develop socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually. Our staff is trained in early childhood education, SIDS, Shaken Baby and are CPR certified. Most importantly, your child is not a number with us. We take pride in how you and your child will get to know and trust our dedicated staff and our personal style of teaching. Little Inspirations will strive to work with you to create the best learning environment for you and your child. Our strength comes from our staff. They are supportive, nurturing, warm, and responsive to each child. We believe it is important for all children to have positive social, emotional, and intellectual experiences to be able to grow and develop. A great deal of time is devoted to strengthening the self-image and confidence of our children. OUR PHILOSOPHY Little Inspirations philosophy is “Inspiring Hearts and Building Minds” and we hope you will see and agree that our commitment to the childcare profession is unparalleled.
