  • Both my children have went to this daycare, it is hands down the best! They communicate with me almost daily with my child’s behavior. 10/10 would recommend !

  • The owner herself is on top of things and absolutely wonderful. However, the business has been in the hands of the director for some time now and things have completely fallen way below standard levels. I could write so very much about the situations, however, out of respect for Heidi, I am simply going to say not to go to this daycare until a new director is in charge. All three of my kids went here…. Things were amazing until Heidi was no longer in charge daily. I called countless times with no response from the director, but a simple message to Heidi and she always responds and is kind.

Is THE LITTLE SCHOOL HOUSE a licensed child care provider in Illinois?

Yes. THE LITTLE SCHOOL HOUSE holds Illinois licence 634637, listed as "License issued (IL)" by the Department of Children and Family Services, licensed as a day care center in Coles County. Confirm current standing at sunshine.dcfs.illinois.gov before enrolling.

What ages does THE LITTLE SCHOOL HOUSE accept?

Illinois licenses THE LITTLE SCHOOL HOUSE for children 15 months to 6 years during the day, with a licensed day capacity of 46. The span is what the licence permits, not a statement of which ages have places free.

What languages are spoken at THE LITTLE SCHOOL HOUSE?

The licence record lists English. That is what the provider reported to the state, not a guarantee that a speaker is on site at every hour.

Does this page show inspection results for THE LITTLE SCHOOL HOUSE?

No. Illinois publishes monitoring and licensing reports going back to 2010 through Sunshine at sunshine.dcfs.illinois.gov. Those reports are not included here, so nothing on this page reflects THE LITTLE SCHOOL HOUSE's inspection history either way. Look the provider up there and read the monitoring record.
