Philosophy: At Little Lambs We,
- Set the highest expectations for each individual child. By doing so we offer each child the potential to be the best they can be without limitations.
- Foster inclusion within and outside our programs. Every child deserves to be a fully participating member of our programs, their families and their communities regardless of ability/skill.
- Promote the importance of community and to respect our environment through sustainable practice. Little Lambs is committed to supporting locally owned businesses. Through our actions we educate children about the importance of sustainability and conservation.

Kristina SchwartzOwner/DirectorKristina established Little Lambs Home Daycare in 2012 as a small home daycare. Word travels quick in small towns and in no time she had built a strong reputation. It was Kristina's commitment to developing the best home child care program that earned her success. Now Little Lambs Home Daycare has grown into an agency overseeing other home daycares. Owning and operating as an agency allows Kristina to guide other providers and have a bigger impact on the desperate need for accountable child care.

Kayla Clarke
Hi, I'm Kayla, a mom to two beautiful children. I knew from a young age that I wanted to pursue a career in helping children learn, explore and succeed. It wasn't until 2010 that I realized my career belonged in the Early Childhood Educational field, so I started to pursue my schooling while also raising my daughter. Through the past 8 years I have been able to gain hands on experience and knowledge that have shaped me to become the educator I am today. In the summer of 2018, after the birth of my son, I decided to pursue a stay at home career and open my own home daycare. After a few months of private care i have finally decided to partner up with the amazing community that is Little Lambs. I look forward to continuing this journey with Little Lambs and continuing to enrich and grow as an educator.
