Little Lites is a Christian learning center in Reno, NV dedicated to helping your child shine! Since opening our doors in 2006, we have proudly provided exceptional care and programs, inspiring a lifelong love of learning in each child who walks through our doors.

We provide a nurturing environment where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to grow. Our developmentally-appropriate curriculum promotes physical, intellectual, emotional, social, and spiritual development.

Each day includes outdoor activities like climbing, biking, and obstacle courses, as well as intellectual challenges that foster creativity, problem-solving, and pattern recognition. We focus on emotional and social skills, teaching respect, responsibility, and kindness in a loving setting. Spiritually, we introduce children to God’s love through Bible stories, verses, prayers, and songs.

Our dedicated staff continually offers new activities to engage and challenge children, fostering a lifelong love of learning. We are honored to care for your child!

Private Kindergarten & First Grade

Little Lites Christian Learning Center in Reno is proud to offer a private Kindergarten program that provides an alternative to the current Washoe County School District (WCSD) age requirements.

With over 19 years of experience in providing quality care to Reno/Sparks families, we introduced our Private Kindergarten program six years ago. Our program is based on the advanced Abeka curriculum, ensuring a comprehensive educational experience. Additionally, we offer continued care during WCSD breaks, delayed starts, and snow days. Before and after-school care is included in the tuition.
