Program Overview

Program Highlights and Goals

We designed our before- and after-school programs to meet the diverse social, emotional, physical, and academic needs of children from ages 5 to 12. In our safe, supportive environment, students can explore their interests and learn more about the world around them. Our structured program reinforces lessons from school and helps children become kinder, more confident members of their community.

Hours of Operation

We open our doors to students between 6:30 a.m. and 6 p.m. every weekday to support families early in the morning and into the evening.

Morning Routine

Personalized Start to the Day

We help children transition from home to school in ways that suit them. They enjoy opportunities to use our materials, engage in unique activities with other children, or simply catch up on sleep.

Nutritious Breakfast Options

We offer a nutritious and tasty breakfast every morning between 7 a.m. and 9 a.m. Options typically include cereal, pancakes, bagels with cream cheese, and an assortment of fresh fruit. Milk is also provided free of charge. We’re a nut-free learning center that complies with the USDA food program. We encourage parents to speak to us about other allergies and dietary requirements so we can better provide for their children.

After School Activities

Homework Support and Study Space

We have a designated area for children to complete their homework and study after school. Our teachers are always on hand to provide academic support to help children stay on track to meet their goals.

Active Play and Physical Health

Many children have energy to burn after spending all day sitting in a classroom. That’s why we offer a wide range of physical activities to help children feel energized and motivated after school. Active play also helps bond our students and encourages them to work as a team.

Enrichment and Collaborative Activities

Children can also participate in our exciting enrichment and collaborative after-school activities and after-school learning programs. We design projects, workshops, and games to foster teamwork, creativity, and personal growth. Activities vary from day to day, but may include:

  • Art and STEM projects
  • Group games and sports
  • Music, reading, and language practice

Focus on Safety and Staff

Parent Teacher

Qualified, Caring Team Members

Only the best candidates become members of the Little Sprouts Menomonie team. We employ highly trained, nurturing people committed to supporting students academically and emotionally. They also maintain first aid and CPR certificates to cope with any emergencies. Working with us is more than a job for them; it’s a true calling.

Comprehensive Safety Policies

We know leaving children can be stressful, so we have strict safety policies to give you complete peace of mind. All parents receive a swipe card that they must use to enter the building and sign their child in and out. You can share this swipe card with relatives and other trusted adults providing childcare, but we’ll only release children to people authorized by parents for their security. We also maintain staff-to-child ratios based on the age of the youngest child in our care. Our clear emergency procedures help us efficiently manage any crisis.

Additional Program Features

Flexible Scheduling Options

We aim to support the needs of diverse families to allow flexible scheduling. Parents and other authorized people can drop students off and pick them up when it suits them during our operating hours. We ask all parents and other caregivers to accompany children to their classroom for their safety. Note that we’re only licensed to provide care until 6 p.m., so it’s not possible to collect children after this time. Late fees apply for late pickups.

Enrollment Process

Easy Steps to Enroll

We ask you to complete an enrollment application and agreement and a tuition rate agreement for each child you want to enroll in our before- and after school program. We also require a current certificate of immunization for the safety of our education and care community, along with a current photo of your child and another of the whole family. If one parent isn’t authorized to collect the child, we ask for legal custodial documents for our records.

Schedule a Tour of Our Facilities

We welcome parents interested in our before- and after-school care to tour our facility to get a first-hand look at our care environment and offerings. You can schedule a tour by calling us at (715) 814-9052 or completing our online form.
We prefer to receive tuition payments through the Kindertales app. We also accept credit card payments, although this method incurs a 3% surcharge convenience fee. Tuition fees increase annually in the fall. Under some circumstances, we may need to increase our fees at other times, but we’ll issue a 30-day notice before this occurs. Families who enroll more than one child receive a 10% discount for the older sibling.
