A small learning room in Hespeler. The same two teachers every week, eight children in a morning group, three in a tutoring group, and a yard with a real oak in it.

With their name on it. We refill it; we do not share them.

And whatever the teacher sent home. We have the pencils, the paper and the patience.
No. Diapers and pull-ups are fine for the preschool mornings until your child is ready, and we follow your lead on training. Pack a change of clothes in a labelled bag every day regardless; paint and puddles find everyone.
We stay with your child, always. After a fifteen-minute grace there is a $1-a-minute late fee, which we waive when traffic or weather is the reason; a call ahead helps.
Two registered early childhood educators run the mornings, and the tutoring is done by the same person each week so the child is not starting over. You meet them at the visit, and they are the ones who answer the phone.
Please do. Half an hour, bring your child, sit in the corner. Pick a morning or an afternoon and we call to confirm. There is nothing to sign at the visit.
No. Little Acorns Learning is a fictional centre built as a concept demo by The Nerd Next Door. The teachers, the fees, the spots and the answers in the box above were invented for it, and nothing on this page books or sends.
Half an hour on a morning or an afternoon, with your child. We call back within a day to set a time.
