Our daughter is attending Little Orchard three days a week and absolutely loves it! The teachers are all so kind yet very effective at teaching the kids. Our daughter is reading and has vastly improved on her listening skills as well as her willingness to try to do hard tasks. The Montessori approach that Little Orchard incorporates is perfect for preschool age, and I believe it encourages creativity, problem solving and confidence. I would recommend this school to anyone seeking a preschool more geared towards learning rather than all playtime. Although they do have a movement room and it’s amazing!

My son is in the 3 day a week program and we have been so thrilled with our experience. He has always been shy about going to new places but the teachers give him all the attention he needs to transition easily. By pick up time he is glowing and excited to tell me about his day. I love that the kids are in very small groups and move through the different classrooms together. My sons favorite rooms are art room and movement room. My main priority when choosing a preschool was that it would be a kind, safe, nurturing environment for him to interact with other kids, which we have definitely found here. Even better, he is already reading thanks to his teachers at Little Orchard. Highly recommend!

My daughter absolutely loves going to preschool. She is definitely a kid that needs to move a lot so the way they structure everything is perfect for her. She also loves that instead of recess they do tumbling skills.The teachers are so wonderful! My daughter talks about them all day. I feel like they really care about my daughter and her success.I also love how much communication there is between parents and teachers. My daughter is learning new things, but It’s at her own pace and it’s never forced which has really made her love learning. I really feel like she is having the best experience possible.

We have put both of our kids through Little Orchard Preschool and have been extremely happy with the results. We have used other preschools around the area and our kids seem to learn nothing from them. Those seemed more focus on fun without much learning. I feel that Little Orchard Preschool allows the kids to have a lot of fun but incorporating the learning aspect as well. My kids have loved going to this preschool. We will continue to send our future children here. The staff is amazing as well and I am very grateful for all the hard work that they do for the kids. I would recommend this preschool to anyone.

Our children have all attended preschool over the last 15 years. From Arizona to Utah, this has been the best preschool we’ve ever experienced.The staff is always engaged with each child. Each child is personally greeted upon arrival and made to feel welcome and special. The staff is always kind and friendly. There is an open door with communication and each family is important. The curriculum is challenging but age appropriate and custom to the child’s needs and speed of learning. They have the statistics and the testimonies to back it up. All of our preschool aged children will be attending Little Orchard. Best school ever.

This is a very well rounded preschool with Montessori reading, tumbling activities and arts/crafts. The children learn and play in small groups with excellent teacher support/child driven learning. My child has progressed well and most importantly loves to learn. They provide wonderful book fairs and the entire staff is happy, loving and excited about what they do. I highly recommend Little Orchard Preschool.

We love Little Orchard preschool! The teachers are amazing and engaging. They truly care about each student and get to know them. I was so nervous about sending my daughter to her first year of preschool but the teachers have been so sweet answering each and every question I have. I 100% recommend this school to anyone looking.

Very impressed with our experience so far. What drew me in at first was how clean and organized it felt inside the building. I LOVE the reading program, it is completely individual so the kids learn at their own pace. My daughters favorite part is the Move Room. Another added bonus is there are no snacks which equals no sugar for little bodies that don’t need it!

We are in love with Little Orchards! Our 5 year old attends 3 days a week and absolutely loves it. It has been eye opening to see how much progress she has made throughout the year. She is continually surprising us with what she is learning and experiencing there. I can’t say enough good things about Little Orchards!

We have LOVED our experience at little orchard. Our son absolutely adores his teachers and is excited to go to school. The school is always clean and well maintained. We love the weekly emails and the communication between parents and teachers is wonderful. I’ve been amazed at how much our son has already accomplished and learned. Can’t wait to see how he’s done at the end of the year! Hands down would recommend this school to everyone.

My three year old son loves this preschool! My husband and I were worried about starting my son in preschool. He seemed so young to be away from us for so long. But LOP (Little Orchard Preschool) has a good schedule so that hes not away from us for too long. They also send weekly emails with pictures and information about what the kids did in class that week.We really love the teachers! They are great with kids and work with us to give our son what he needs. The first few weeks my son would cry at drop off. The teachers helped us do a fast, happy drop off and rush my son to the toys and sit with him for a few minutes until he felt better enough that he would play .This school has a lot of fun toys, lessons, and activities. I really appreciate that they do some field trips too!I highly recommend this preschool!

I cant say enough wonderful things about Little Orchards Preschool!! Two of my children (both very different from the other) have attended and have both had such positive experiences. I am convinced that theyve created the perfect environment for any child to succeed and love learning.The individualized reading program is so impressive. The skys the limit for each child because they are learning to read on a personal level. I also love the movement room. Both of my children love playing in the ball pit and perfecting their summersaults.The teachers and staff are positive, warm, and welcoming! They communicate effectively with parents and students about expectations, procedures, discipline, and upcoming events. I love the weekly emails they send out because I know we are all on the same page. I have always felt totally comfortable coming to them with questions or concerns. I also love that they dont do snacks or treats at school. They are consistent, happy, and simply the best.I would feel 100% confident recommending this preschool to anyone. Cant thank them enough for all they do.

I am very impressed with Little Orchard Preschool. My son loves it! He is attending M-F as a 4-yr old. I was worried every day might be too much for him, but he has fun every day, and having the same schedule every day is actually easier on us than the T/Th preschool he did last year. The teachers and staff are absolutely amazing! My son even says he wants to have his teachers come to our house to play! Not to mention he is learning a great deal. I love the calendar they send home so I know what he’s learning about each day, they send weekly emails with a summary of their activities, and sometimes they even text me cute pictures of my son. They do a couple programs and a couple field trips each year and they have been so much fun and well organized. I will definitely send my other kids here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a preschool.

I honestly cannot say enough good things about Little Orchard Preschool.Our 4 year old started in the fall & not only are the staff & teachers amazing with the kids but they are incredibly communicative & easy to work with as well. They send weekly emails with photos from class & an update on whats coming up, what the students are learning, etc. which is so great to see each week.We love that the reading curriculum is so geared to each individual student - our son is reading already & was able to move up each level at his own pace. His social skills have also improved greatly, his confidence levels have gone up, & we love that they get time in a variety of areas throughout the week including the movement room (his favorite things are the ball pit & yoga!), art projects, basic math + numbers, computers, & more.I would confidently highly recommend them to anyone looking for an awesome preschool in the area!

We loved having our boy in Little Orchard Preschool Bountiful, we did it for 2 years and part of a summer. The instruction and art projects are so wonderful and fun! Nikita does a wonderful job. Our boy matured so much during that time with listening to teachers and getting along with kids, we felt he was ready for kindergarten for sure. Thanks Nikita!

My daughter started going to Little Orchard Preschool after going to an at home preschool at the beginning of the school year. I am very pleased with the communication (especially the greeting when dropping her off for the day- the workers actually have a very positive welcome tone of voice and body language ), the security that is in place and love the curriculum. I have personally volunteered there and love the atmosphere and control of the classrooms. It feels good to know that my daughter is in very qualified hands and she loves going- that’s the most important part to me.I talk about this preschool with all my neighbors and friends - very highly recommend this school. Very impressed.

We are so happy we found Little Orchard Preschool! It has been an incredible experience for our son and for us, he loves going to school and he comes home so happy after! As a first time parent I was very nervous but the teachers have been so understanding and I couldn’t imagine a better experience for us! 100% recommend.

Little Orchard Preschool has exceeded our expectations. The way their curriculum is organized and the dedication of the teachers has been wonderful. We chose the school because of its Montessori-based pedagogy and have been pleasantly surprised at the way they integrate child-lead learning into daily experiences. Nothing but great things to say about this preschool!

This is my sons first year of preschool and it has been a success! His teachers at Little Orchard engage with him and have made him excited about learning. His vocabulary and social skills have grown since attending and he knows almost all of his letters and sounds, and the school year has just begun! We love this school!

There are not enough words to express how AMAZING this preschool is. Whether your goals are from a parenting or educational perspective, you will be SO glad you enrolled your child here! We have 2 children enrolled, ages 3 and 5. The 5 year old is on his 2nd year with Little Orchard, the 3 year old is on his 1st. The staff is consistently the most caring group, they truly care about each individual child and are excellent at identifying their unique way of learning so they can flourish. My kids are always excited to go and they learn so much! Theyre always surprising me now with being able to read words that are far above what they should know at this age. Little Orchard only staffs teachers that TRULY enjoy and care about children, so the environment is always welcoming and positive. Im fairly certain at this point that my boys think Aubrie and Nikita are actually family, which is basically every moms best case scenario when we trust our kids to someone. Again, not enough words. You will NEVER regret enrolling your kids at Little Orchard!

We recently moved to the Farmington area and consider ourselves lucky to have found Little Orchard Preschool for our 5 year old son and 3 year old daughter. They both enjoy going to school and love their teachers and all the activities they get to do. Our son was struggling with his letters when we moved here, the teachers worked with him with different learning methods until it all started clicking, he has made great improvements and we owe it to the teachers at Little Orchard Preschool.

This preschool is the best I could have hoped for with my kids. They learn so many things and we get weekly emails with pictures of the activities they participate in. The teachers are the best and they treat the kids like individuals, not numbers. We love Little Orchard!

We have absolutely loved Little Orchard! Our daughter is very social and loves to get out to learn and play with other kids! She has learned her letters by sound and sight. She loves doing crafts and especially loves the ball pit in the movement room! We would choose little orchard 100 times over! ♥️

We have loved Little Orchard Preschool. My son has finished half of this year and is already reading and excited to begin kindergarten. We appreciate the Montessori approach, which is the principal reason we chose this school, but the staff and teachers have helped to make this experience formative and education-focused without being overbearing or dogmatic. Extremely pleased!

My daughter has been attending Little Orchard Preschool for 2 years now. She is reading, writing, knows SO MANY math skills...the list goes on and on. She absolutely loves her teachers-so much so that she begged to be enrolled in summer school! Im so excited they now have the Farmington location. Little Orchard has a unique curriculum that integrates Montessori learning with gymnastics, which my daughter loves! ABSOLUTELY would recommend!!

We LOVE Little Orchard Preschool! We just moved to the area and I’m SO glad we found out about them! They have been wonderful for my son! The teachers and staff are all the sweetest! My son has learned so much and has a good time every single day. Little Orchard is very good with communication in letting me know exactly how my son is doing and what he is working on! I couldn’t say enough great things about them!!

Little Orchard is absolutely amazing!!! Our experience with them have been beyond expectations. This is our second year there and my son has learned so much and improved so much. I know that he will be thoroughly ready for kindergarten next year because of the programs and curriculum that Little Orchard offers.

We love Little Orchard! Montessori is the best for hands-on learning. My son learns so much better that way. He comes home with art projects he completed, and sings the songs he learned in school that day. He talks non-stop about his teachers, and how much fun he had there. And Aubrie is a wonderful director!

We love little orchard preschool! We’ve attended both locations in Bountiful and Farmington. The staff is amazing! My first son was very anxious about leaving me, and cried at drop off most of his first year. The teachers were so understanding and great at putting him at ease. We have been so happy with Little Orchard!

My son loves going to Little Orchard. After school each day he tells me what he learned and about what he did with his friends. Going to this preschool has helped him come out of his shell and become more outgoing and vocal. The teachers are great, they give us frequent updates on how our son is doing and what he’s working on. They even send pictures of the kids over the week. Highly recommend the school.

My son attends here 3 days a week and absolutely LOVES it!!!! I wish that I would have known about Little Orchard for my two older children! I cant believe how much my son has learned in less than one year and how much he loves his teachers! The owner and staff are wonderful, positive people that truly have a passion for what they do! I cant say enough how much we love it here! My son asked if he can go everyday next year so we signed him up for the 5 day program. He cant wait!

I couldn’t say enough good things about LOP. My daughter, who has a lot of energy, is on the younger side of her preschool class. I was worried that she might be too much for them to handle and that she wouldn’t enjoy herself, but nope. Not the case at all. She loves going to school and loves her teachers. She comes home singing new songs, she’s learning her letters, and is overall a better problem solver. In fact, all that stimulation and learning has really been beneficial to her behavior at home. The staff is great, the class sizes are small, and she’s really enjoying herself.

My child always comes home happy and telling me about all the activities she did that day. They have multiple activity rooms focused on reading, free play time, crafts etc. I like the secure environment and drop off and pick up system. I know my child will be safe. The staff is friendly and responsive.

Little Orchard is such a wonderful school! My five year old was hesitant to start a new preschool and all of the teachers at Little Orchard were so patient, kind and loving to him and continue to be. The school is clean, the teachers are truly amazing and the curriculum is perfect. Little Orchard is our favorite!

Weve had our son at Little Orchard for a few months and he loves it. Hes learning very quickly and making great friends. The whole staff knows his name and everyone is always excited to see him. The instruction seems to be a well-rounded combination of letters, numbers, craft, and physical play. Theyve only had to call us once to come get him and it was just because of a poopy diaper. Any behavioral issues (which Im sure hes had), theyve been able to address without our assistance.

Little Orchard preschool.My three year old son has been attending little Orchard preschool since August. He has done so well at Little Orchard Preschool and I know it’s due to the amazing staff. I particularly love how they greet each student as they walk through the front door each morning. They have a special way of making each child feel so important. One of my favorite parts about his preschool is the students don’t stay in one room the whole three hours they are there. I have a very active son and I think with them having four different rooms that all do something different really helps him. They have a movement room an arts and crafts room ,Montessori room, and a reading room. Little Orchard Preschool has really made me feel at peace I’m not worried at all when he is there. He enjoys himself so much and always comes home with something positive to say and also something that he learned for the day. The teachers send art created in class as well as homework pages home with our son of what he’s working on at school. Which makes my husband and I feel involved in what our son is doing while at Little Orchard. I would highly recommend this preschool to anybody!Bailey & Jake Daines

Our experience with Little Orchard Preschool has been nothing short of phenomenal. Everyone weve interacted with, from the teachers to the admin staff, has been positive and weve genuinely felt like they care about the education and experience of each individual student. Our son has THRIVED during his time here and will be heading into Kindergarten next year already reading at a level I never expected.

We love Little Orchard Preschool. Originally I had my son signed up at another school until I visited both Bountiful and Farmington locations and fell inlove with the program they offer and switched my son immediately to Little Orchard Preschool. I’ve been so happy with my choice and his teachers are just the best, they inform me every pick up of how he acted, what he passed off! I’m super impressed. I would definitely recommend this school to anyone!!

We love Little Orchard! They have an amazing curriculum- it is mostly Montessori with a movement class added in. And they are the first real preschool Ive found that allows children who havent learned to use the potty come. You just have to have an adult available to change your kiddo if needed. I love the weekly email summing up what my daughter learned and sending pictures of her and her class mates from the week. I recommend it to everyone who asks me!

Review №53

I have absolutely loved Little Orchard! I wanted a school that could provide a fun focused learning environment and a safe place to socialize with others in a classroom setting. I checked out almost ten schools before landing with Little Orchard.The curriculum has been amazing. My son entered the school year not knowing any of his letters or letter sounds. He now knows them all and is working on sight words and reading- hes 4! He is already ahead of others in his age group that do not attend Little Orchard. He will be more than prepared when he goes to kindergarten next year!Little Orchard also makes the entire experience fun. They have a ball pit and a movement room where the kids participate in fun active games and activities. Its a great way to break up classroom time. We have also been on field trips, had class parties, visits from local Firemen and more. My son has loved it!I also appreciate the teacher to student ratio (12:1). The teachers know and appreciate my son individually. They are very attentive to his needs and help him exceed his goals. The administrative staff are kind, helpful and knowledgeable.I cannot recommend Little Orchard enough! It is an amazing school with an excelled curriculum.

This is my sons second year here and we also enrolled my daughter this year. The growth I have seen in both kids is phenomenal. My son was reading by January of his first year and now reads books around our house because he LOVES reading. He also is solving simple addition problems. My kids constantly surprise me with things they have learned. Aubrie and Nakita are very concerned with making sure each child is learning at their own level and my kids each feel that their teachers care about them. As a parent that finds it hard to let go, it puts my mind at ease knowing that my kids are loved. I also watched my son blossom from unsure and afraid to talk to teachers (he had attended preschool previously) to so outgoing and the best little friend. I cant say enough about this preschool. My big concern now is worrying if he will be as challenged in Kindergarten!!

I can’t say enough good things about Little Orchard. We’ve been attending this program for the last two years (last year at the Bountiful location, this year in Farmington). The teachers and staff LOVE these kids like their own. Just back from Christmas break and my son woke up EVERY morning asking if we could go back to school yet! I don’t go out of my way to leave recommendations very often, but i’d scream Little Orchard Preschool from the rooftops :)

Review №57

We lived outside of Utah for 6+ years. Our preschool experience out of state was fantastic, so I was worried when trying to find my daughter a preschool here. I was hesitant about the “in your basement” preschools. Not that they can’t be great, but unless I knew the owner and teacher personally, I wasn’t comfortable with sending my child there. But I also didn’t want to spend an arm and a leg on preschool. My daughter has already done a year of preschool elsewhere. Which she loved. And it was great. But she didn’t learn a lot. I felt like I was paying for an extended play date twice a week. I knew I wanted to find something better for her second year of preschool.This is when I found little orchard!I knew we needed a preschool that would challenge her academically. little Orchard has been perfect! There is a terrific balance of structured learning, movement, and play. She LOVES it, loves her teachers, and has learned a ton. We are only half way through the year and she can read CVC words comfortably. I’m so proud, and she is so proud of herself!Besides academics, the timing of this preschool is perfect with my older kids in elementary. There are no problems with drop off/pick up.Basically I can’t emphasize enough how much I love this school.

Review №59

This preschool has been even better than I imagined it would be. Not only is in conveniently located right off the freeway in Farmington but the program is phenomenal. I have my masters in elementary education and have taught both kindergarten and preschool. I have high expectations for the learning environment of my children. I was looking for a teacher guided, student directed program where my child could learn by hands on activities and practices. Learning is so much more meaningful when it is through exploration. I love the Montessori room and the works the children do in there. They are learning so many skills through PLAY! The movement room is so fun and the highlight for my daughter is the ball pit (which the disinfect regularly.)The arts and crafts they do are so cute and have helped my daughter develop better fine motor skills. The highlight for me is the reading program. Each child is working at his or own pace learning letter recognition and phonemic awareness. Once that is mastered they start working on learning simple cvc (consonant-vowel-consonant) words. Learning to read is hard work and I love that my child gets to do it at her own pace and on the days where she’s not into it they don’t force her to do it. It’s such a positive and encouraging environment which leads me to the most important thing for me, caring, patient and respectful teachers. It’s hard to manage lots of little bodies day in and day out and the women working here do it so incredibly well. They are loving and kind. My daughter loves each one of them so much and that is truly the most important thing for early learners. When a child feels loved and valued by their teachers they want to preform to the best of their abilities and they begin to have a positive association with school and education. I can’t say enough good things about these amazing women and the school they are running. My oldest is off to kindergarten next year and I have my second child enrolled for next school year. There are a lot of great preschools in this area, I just feel this one is exemplary.

We found out after two and a half months of my four year old daughter attending this school that the teachers were having trouble getting her to listen. Our response was thanks for telling us, well talk with her more before and after school and let us know each day how she does so we can help. The teachers told us they were seeing improvement, and then a week later they told us our daughter had one chance and if she wasnt on her best behavior they would decide whether or not she could continue to attend Little Orchard Preschool. I guess if you have an energetic child, your child isnt welcome at this school. Pretty disappointing. Wish they would have talked to us earlier. Wish they wouldve told us up front that they kick out difficult kids, we wouldnt have wasted their time.
