We are a team of husband and wife working together to provide a stimulating, nurturing learning environment for your little one. We are both native of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and proud parents of two boys. Portuguese is our native language and we love to share our culture with the children. Together we have over 20 years of experience raising and educating children.

At Little Lion Preschool & Childcare children are encouraged to communicate and participate in group activities, but never pressured. We are play-based and we believe that preschool years are a time for the development of social skills. Learning is experimental and exploratory and each child is an unique and capable individual, with their own strengths and growth areas.

Our clean, spacious classroom is filled with books, games, puzzles, dolls, puppets, blocks, dress up clothes... all to foster curiosity and imaginative play. The huge, fenced yard has a cement area for playing balls and tricycles riding(Cidade- City).The play structure is big and provide hours of climbing and sliding( Fazendinha- Little Farm). Also available is our Garden area for nature exploration and gardening. Our super friendly black mixed Labrador(Hawi) brings comfort and emotional support for the sometimes anxious first time "lion cubs".
