Historical properties aren’t easy. The original home was built in the 1870’s and home to the Douglas County School District Super Intendent. We are extremely proud to bring this prime location back to life and tie it to its roots, a place that loves developing Castle Rock’s youth. Our location allows us to provide an interactive experience in our community for the kiddos that is one of a kind.

Our Story
Amy Lewison, my wife and The Little School Director, worked in public education for 10 years. Her work primarily focused on special education in various settings from elementary to high school. When we had our first child, we built and operated a licensed small, in-home childcare in our basement so that she could be home with our son while providing quality programing for other families. After three boys, I joined the team, making the little operation a family affair. We grew our program to become a large, licensed in-home childcare facility. Our passion for nurturing, guiding and teaching little learners became more than just a dream of ours. It’s becoming our reality! We are excited to take the next step by growing into a commercial facility while maintaining the feeling of a family run, in-home childcare center. Jodi Lang, sister and lead infant teacher, will be joining the family operation, bringing valuable experience from her own in-home childcare program, work within commercial childcare facility, expertise in infant care and being a mother of her own four children. We invite you to join the family and learn how we can nurture, guide and teach your little learners.

The families we work with become a part of our family. We are excited to grow our tight-knit community.
Classes By Age Group
The little ones will have their own space, 6 weeks to 18 months. We know how hard it can be to leave your littles but you can find solace in our attentive staff.
We have two toddler rooms, 19 months to 24 months, and 25 months to 36 months. Our experience tells us there is a lot of growing in the Toddler phase.
There are two pre-school classrooms that will share a space, with an operable dividing wall. We want to prepare our older kids for the next phase in larger classrooms, while still having multiple teachers.
