Little Wings Early Learning Center is a self-supporting childcare program affiliated with St. Johns Public Schools licensed by the State of Michigan. Our program is designed to accommodate those children attending St. Johns Public Schools and schools in the surrounding areas. We care for children aged 6 weeks through 5 years old.

Our building hosts multiple programs, including:

  The children are separated by age into classrooms.  Little Wings addresses the needs of children and fosters the growth of the whole child by utilizing Creative Curriculum and GOLD assessment starting in our Infant room all the way through the GSRP program.  Our approach is designed to encourage children to explore through play based experiences in a safe and healthy environment.
