What Makes Little Sunshine’s Playhouse & Preschool® so Special?
It’s all About our Littleton Families.
At Little Sunshine’s Playhouse, we are committed to providing you the highest quality of communication, security and innovative conveniences through our Distinctive Services so you can take comfort in knowing your child is in the very best care.
Our Proprietary Reggio Emilia-Inspired Curriculum
Creatively Shine®
Our Reggio Emilia-inspired curriculum, Creatively Shine®, is based on the latest research and trends to prepare your children for their educational careers equipping them with cognitive, social, emotional, physical and language skills.
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 Littleton Leadership Team
Ms. Robynn
Program Director
Hello! My name is, Robynn, and I am thrilled to be the Program Director at Little Sunshine’s Playhouse and Preschool of Littleton. I am so excited to get to know each child and family that comes through our door. I have worked in early childhood education for 24 years as an assistant teacher to a school director, you name it and I have done it! My most recent experience has been with the licensing department for the state of Colorado. I am very passionate about providing the very best care and educational opportunities for each child. I truly believe that a child’s love of learning begins with us!
I am a busy mom of three boys! They all play multiple sports, so I spend most of my free time at a ballfield or a court cheering my kiddos on. My husband and I have both lived in the Littleton area for 20 years! We love the outdoors. I enjoy walking on the trails or short hikes in the foothills. I also love to read a good book on my back patio!
Ms. Cynthia
Assistant Director
Hello! My name is Cynthia, and I am so thrilled to be the Assistant Director at Little Sunshine’s Playhouse and Preschool of Littleton. I have been with Little Sunshine’s since 2020 when I started as a lead teacher in our toddler classroom. Shortly after, I was promoted to head teacher. I have enjoyed growing and learning every day from my experiences.
I have a Bachelor’s in Human Development and Family Studies from Colorado State University. I have my license for Large Center Director in the state of Colorado and have worked in the early childcare industry, at public schools, and have volunteered with children throughout my life but, Little Sunshine’s Playhouse feels truly like my home away from home.
I am a Colorado native, born and raised. I love to hike and kayak with my dog, Rizzo, on the weekends. Family is a huge part of my life and I spend as much time with them as possible. My new obsession is my baby nephew, so a lot of my spare time is dedicated to him.
I can’t wait to get to know you!

What Our Littleton Families Are Saying
Kristen
This is our second go-around with LSP. We had our two older children there when LSP first opened until they went to elementary school. When it was time for our surprise baby to go to daycare we couldn’t think to send him anywhere but LSP! What was amazing, was after over two years of being gone, I returned to see some of the same faces that cared for my older children – which is almost unheard of in the childcare industry, especially with what COVID has done. The staff has always been wonderful to my children, giving them love and support throughout all the developmental changes that happen. My older children were well prepared for kindergarten both socially and academically. We love how the staff takes time to answer our questions, works WITH us to solve any problems, and genuinely cares for children. We could not ask for a better place for our little one to spend his days.
Brian
This family of hard-working childcare professionals has taken amazing care of our son for 2 crazy years considering all the COVID complications. They have exceeded my expectations by over-communicating at every transition and focusing on keeping kids, teachers, and families healthy. If you are looking for childcare in the area, then look no further, LSP is the best out there!
Kimberly
Our 2.5-year-old daughter has been going to LSP since she was 7 months old. Honestly, my husband and I couldn’t recommend the curriculum and the staff any higher. Our daughter has excelled tremendously in motor skills, speech, and curiosity about the world. She absolutely loves her teachers and friends and talks about them every day! We work full-time jobs and it’s such a relief to know she’s in the best hands. We have a second little one on the way and can’t wait for him to join the LSP family 💗
