At Little Sunshine’s Playhouse and Preschool® we believe that a child’s work is play. We teach children age-appropriate lessons, manners, and social skills all through creative and purposeful play. We believe that if children enjoy learning at a young age it will carry with them throughout their lives.
Each month we have original projects, provide each classroom with new materials that reflect the monthly theme and provide related activities to support the individual concepts of the “whole child.”
Our Lakeway, TX Leadership
Ms. Shamra
Program Director
Hello, my name is Shamra and I am the Program Director at Little Sunshine’s Playhouse and Preschool of Lakeway, TX.
My family and I moved to Austin in late July of 2022. We relocated from the San Francisco Bay Area, where I spent 10 years as the General Manager of Bayshore Elite Gymnastics Cheer & Sport, located in Redwood City, CA. Prior to managing Bayshore Elite, I was a preschool educator for more than 18 years. In my professional background, I spent more than a decade at Children’s Creative Learning Center at centers including Electronic Arts (EA Games Corporate Headquarters) Redwood Shores, CA., and Pixar Animation Studios, Emeryville, CA. I currently also coach gymnastics and own a preschool mobile gymnastics program still thriving in California.
On a personal note, I grew up in Millbrae, CA. just outside of San Francisco. I am also the mother of a six-year-old named Jackson. So far, the whole family loves Austin!

Our daughter is enrolled at LSP Lakeway in the Wonderland class. She loves going to school and is always happy. I have noticed a big change in her since attending LSP, in addition to all the milestones she is surpassing. My daughter is talking more verbally and using the ASL she is being taught. She LOVES her teachers! I can tell they take really good care of her and treat her as if she were their own. Thank you, LSP for taking such good care of our daughter and going above and beyond.

I am a mother of 3 and I can’t speak more highly of a school than Little Sunshine’s Playhouse & Preschool. I kept my two preschool-age children home during 2020 due to COVID and then we decided to enroll them both into LSP in Lakeway. I did a ton of research on preschools in my area but ultimately decided to make a 30-minute commute to attend THIS school.
At Little Sunshine’s, they have a personal chef so breakfast, lunch and snacks are handled. YES! Makes such a difference! The school also sends out daily reports to parents with a brief breakdown of the day, how much my kid ate for lunch, what time they fell asleep for a nap, and a cute photo of my child taken sometime during the day.
Overall, I love this school so much and would highly recommend it to other families!

Finding a safe and welcoming school for your child has proven to be a challenge for me and my husband until we found LSP. My husband and I could not be happier with the staff and the curriculum that my son is exposed to and has been to for almost a year now. He absolutely LOVES going to “school” every day and talks about his teachers and friends constantly. The amount he learns is mind-blowing. The weekly menus are wonderful, healthy and food my son loves to eat! It helps me plan his dinners during the week which is incredibly helpful as a full-time working mom. If you haven’t already figured it out, we love LSP and highly recommend it to our neighbors and friends.
