Maryland publishes an infant band and a school-age band and no others, so these are not a total capacity and say nothing about toddler or preschool places.

  • This will be our second year at Little Hands, and we couldn’t be happier to be back! Our youngest is thriving just like her older sibling did during their time here. The teachers and staff are incredibly kind, nurturing, and attentive — they truly treat each child as an individual and make learning feel like a joyful adventure. We’ve loved watching our daughter grow more confident, curious, and independent each day she’s there. The environment is creative, safe, and welcoming — it’s clear how much thought and heart goes into everything they do, from the daily routines to special activities. Little Hands has felt like an extension of our family over the years, and we’re so grateful for the positive start they’ve given both our children. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a loving and enriching preschool experience!

  • Amazing school! My child had a wonderful year in the 4s class. The teachers are experienced, energetic, and kind. And Mrs. Felrice in particular is absolutely wonderful—you couldn't ask for a better preschool teacher for your child! The school's director is fantastic and greets each child by name every morning. My child was so excited to come to school everyday, and I felt great knowing they would have fun and be well taken care of. The 4s classes are also great with kindergarten prep. My other child attended a different preschool several years ago, and it really could not compete with LHP. Little Hands is the BEST.

  • We had children at LHP from 2017-25. It is such a special preschool with AMAZING teachers and staff who love your kids like their own. Many of them have been at LHP for many years. The students move to different classrooms throughout the day for different activities. I liked that they weren’t in the same classroom the whole time. Our kids looked forward to school days, made great friends, and were well prepared for elementary school. Afterschool enrichment was a great option for an extended day. My kids especially loved cooking! Highly recommend LHP!

  • We have loved LHP this past school year. It was my son's first year in a 3 yr old class and he wasn't easy to say the least. Everyone who works there is so warm and loving. Just what I always wanted in a preschool for my son. So many sweet and thoughtful activities as well. Halloween parade, birthdays, winter and end of year singing performances.

  • We love Little Hands Preschool! Three of my kids attended and each one had a wonderful experience. We are very happy with the community and so grateful for the learning foundation LHP provided.

    Xenia BarnesJun 26, 2025
  • We love little hands! We found this preschool in 2023 and have had the best experience with them. The teachers there are fantastic and really care about their students. The director Wendy is so easy to talk to and always has an open line of communication. We could not have asked for a more perfect school for our babies.

Questions parents ask about Little Hands Preschool

Is Little Hands Preschool a licensed child care provider in Maryland?

Yes. Little Hands Preschool holds Maryland licence 1746216075364x819627406741258500, listed as "CONTINUING - FULL" by the Office of Child Care, Maryland State Department of Education in Montgomery County. The licence is recorded as Continuing - Full, running to August 30, 2026. Confirm current standing with the Office of Child Care before enrolling.

What does Maryland record about Little Hands Preschool's standing?

Maryland records Little Hands Preschool's status as "In Good Standing". That is a single status field in a snapshot, not a compliance history, and it is not the same as a clean inspection record. Maryland publishes inspection findings separately at checkccmd.org and they are not included here.

Does Little Hands Preschool operate all year?

Maryland records Little Hands Preschool as a "School Year" programme. That is the schedule on the licence record rather than a timetable, so confirm term dates and closures with the provider.

Does this page show inspection results for Little Hands Preschool?

No. Maryland inspects licensed child care programmes and publishes the results through Check Child Care Maryland at checkccmd.org. Those reports are not included here, so nothing on this page reflects Little Hands Preschool's inspection history either way. This page's record comes from Maryland Family Network's LOCATE service, which carries licence and status data rather than inspection findings.
