Little Flowers Early Childhood Center was known as Excelsior Preschool.
Founded in 1986, Excelsior Preschool was then transferred to another owner who lead the school until November 1995.
I, Bernadette Martelly-Paul purchased Excelsior Preschool and changed the name to Little Flowers Early Childhood Center.
Our Philosophy of Little Flowers Early Childhood Center is to provide a safe, family-like environment.
We recognize that each child is a unique individual with a personality and talents distinct from others, and that basic needs to establish trust, satisfy curiosity and maintain good health are shared by all.
We believe in educating the whole child, intellectually, emotionally, physically and artistically.
We believe in the importance of learning basic skills of math, reading, and spelling through a myriad of teaching techniques and mediums.
