About Us
Who We Are
Since 1980, our mission has been to enhance the whole child by providing a safe, loving, and nurturing atmosphere, while also creating an enriching learning environment to foster the development of the intellectual, physical, emotional and social needs of young children. Our passion is to create the most innovative learning environment for children by providing a premium, high quality, private early education program.
Throughout the year, you can look forward to a variety of activities, special events and programs that will give you the opportunity to be involved in your child’s early education, including parent meetings, active parent committees, open houses, charity events, pot luck dinners and holiday parties.
High Quality Preschool Education
We are continuously striving to do better in our curriculum. We prioritize creating the best learning experience for all our students, incorporating the latest technologies and up-to-date subject matter into our resources. Small Miracles is proud to participate in the First Things First’s signature program, Quality First. Quality First works with child care and preschool providers across Arizona to improve the quality of their early learning settings for children from birth to age 5. We are committed to quality improvement and going beyond regulatory requirements to help the infants, toddlers and preschoolers be ready for success in kindergarten and beyond. For more information, visit QualityFirstAZ.com.
The keystone in our high quality program is a curriculum that is specifically designed for children from birth to five years’ old. Taking theories and lessons from our curriculum, our teachers design daily routines that focus on supporting and nurturing the developmental stages that each individual child is experiencing.
Why Small Miracles?
Every child is different, every mind is unique.
We believe the early years for children are crucial and in the past twenty years, brain research has recognized that 85-90% of the brain develops between the ages of birth to five years of age. At Small Miracles, we know this and feel that it is important to offer activities that stimulate and challenge the brain, so we designed our schools learning environment to be a place for children to learn, explore, and play.
At Small Miracles, we strive to support each student in their individual learning journey. We believe that all children are capable of great things and possess the potential to make a valuable contribution both in and out of the classroom. We endeavor to provide an inclusive and supportive environment and encourage our students to express themselves and explore their passions, knowing that this is the key to driving excited, engaged learning for the rest of their lives. Through creativity and activity, we facilitate opportunities for discovery so that every child can reach their full potential.

Parents, team members and children are integrally included in our volunteer and fundraising ef- forts for local charity organizations.
Our Mission
Our gallant mission belongs to you. You make love possible for our children. It is your gentle spirit and loving souls that have made Small Miracles a symbol of LOVE.

Together we have an opportunity to embrace and drive change by being who we say we are at all times in all situations - ambassadors of LOVE.
Our Core Beliefs
We believe in the value of human diversity and the importance of cultural awareness. Our paramount goal is to provide a stimulating learning environment that will encourage all children to become creative, independent, responsible and self-directed individuals who can work well with others and make wise decisions.
