Little Explorers Early Learning Center
A nature play-based early learning program for children ages 1 to 5, rooted in joy, connection, and curiosity.
Opening March 2026
Our Philosophy
Rooted in the values of joy, connection, and curiosity, our philosophy honors the natural brilliance of every child. Children are born curious, creative, and capable, and our role is to nurture that spark. At Little Explorers, learning happens through play, exploration, and connection to the world around us.
We trust children as natural learners and create open-ended opportunities to explore through movement, music, art, storytelling, and time in nature. From snack time to story time, every part of the day is an opportunity to grow confident, capable, and kind.


Rooted in Partnership
Little Explorers proudly partners with Warren YES, sharing a common mission to support children, families, and the broader community. Through this partnership, full-time families who attend Little Explorers receive Kindergarten enrollment preference at YES, and our program is thoughtfully aligned with Warren YES mission and core values. We also collaborate on curricular design to ensure a developmentally appropriate, high-quality learning experience that seamlessly supports each child’s growth and success as they move through school.
