Little Lamb Preschool has been a cherished part of our local community for nearly 20 years and we are continuing our commitment to providing a nurturing and engaging environment for young children. At Little Lamb, we understand that children thrive when they have the opportunity to connect with the natural world. That's why our nature-focused approach ensures that kids get outside as much as possible. Even when the weather is not ideal, we bring the outside in! Through play, exploration, music, and crafts, we provide a strong academic and faith-based foundation, allowing children to develop a deep appreciation for the world around them.

In addition to our nature focus, we are excited to incorporate American Sign Language (ASL) into our curriculum. Sign language is integrated into many aspects of our learning, including songs and poems. By introducing ASL as an educational tool, we aim to promote strong communication skills and inclusivity among our students. This unique feature sets our preschool apart and prepares children for a diverse and interconnected world.

As part of our commitment to community engagement, we organize regular field trips and activities that allow children to interact with their surroundings and learn from different generations. These experiences provide valuable opportunities for hands-on learning and foster a sense of connection and appreciation for the world around them.

We invite you to join our Little Lamb family; where children can explore, learn and grow in a loving and supportive environment. Come and experience the joy of discovery and the power of faith at Little Lamb Christian Preschool.

Learn about our classroom options:

The preschool classes are designed as an introduction to the world of school. Students will experience curriculum reflecting learning goals in four key areas of development: Spiritual, Social Emotional, Personal & Academic.
Students can expect fun, fast paced sessions filled with songs, games, crafts, STEM activities, and lots of learning! When the year is over, your students will be familiar with concepts such as shapes, colors, emotions, counting, and the alphabet song. 
The Pre-K class builds upon the skills and lessons learned in Preschool and is designed to prepare the student to enter Kindergarten. This class adds two categories of Learning Goals: Responsibility and Independence.
Students will become well-versed with numbers, letters, writing their names, and much more! The program is designed to serve as a bridge between Preschool and Kindergarten, in the hopes that your student will experience a smooth transition to Kindergarten the following year.

Meet the team.

Bethany Robinson

Director
Miss Bethany has deep roots in the Cascade community, having lived here most of her life. She first met her future husband at the Turner Christian Church nursery when they were just two years old, and they have been married 15 wonderful years. As a proud mother of three daughters who all attended Little Lamb, she truly embodies the values of connection and belonging that she hopes to instill in her students. Miss Bethany believes that fostering relationships within the community can help children develop a strong sense of self. This belief shapes the way she organizes the classroom experience and selects field trips to local locations. She enjoys introducing students to the joys of farm life by bringing in animals and experiences and sharing her favorite Christmas records, creating lasting memories along the way. 

Maritza Rivera

Teaching Assistant
Miss Maritza was born and raised in Salem, where she went to West Salem High School. Before coming to Little Lamb, she had just moved back to the area after spending a year in Las Vegas! She is happy to be living once again near family. Miss Maritza possesses a calm demeanor that creates a welcoming atmosphere for children, making them feel comfortable. With a natural artistic talent, she incorporates creativity into the daily lessons, allowing students to explore and express themselves through various forms of art. One of her favorite activities in the classroom is reading aloud. She loves helping students find favorite books and reads them as often as asked, fostering a lasting love for reading. She is excited to be working with young students and pursuing a career in childhood education. 

Come  See Our Classroom

We have intentionally set up our classroom with calm colors and clear designated spaces to help facilitate all types of learning and strong communication with parents. We have spaces for center play, daily circle time, alphabet sensory bin, accessible books to read, and a calm corner to help teach children to regulate emotion.

"We have had such an amazing experience with Little Lambs preschool. They have done such an incredible job with making our daughter's time there exciting, fun, and worthwhile. She's learning and retaining so much between the different languages, outdoor and field trip experiences, bible studies, and day to day activities in school. I have no doubt she will thrive when the time comes for Kindergarten, largely in part because of her time here at Little Lambs. I have and would, recommend this faith centered program to my friends and family."
-Sam Brown (preschool 23-24)
