About Littlehands Homechildcare

Littlehands Homechildcare provides early education and child care in a home-based setting in Austin. In-home care is a popular choice with many families because it can be a warm, familiar environment that helps young children transition from spending most of their time in the family home to spending more and more time in a structured learning environment. With often small group sizes and that family-like community and environment, in-home care like what Littlehands Homechildcare offers is well worth considering. In addition, Littlehands Homechildcare teaches a mixed-age curriculum that facilities peer learning and communal growth. In a mixed-age classroom like at Littlehands Homechildcare, students receive open-ended, stimulating activities and are encouraged to move at their own pace. Younger students receive help and encouragement from older students, boosting their confidence and self-esteem, and older students get to lend a helping hand, teaching empathy and the joy of giving. Mixed-age learning replicates the best of a family or neighborhood group structure as children socialize with peers a little ahead or a little behind their own development path.
