Small Hands Big Dreams - Kirtland

We love our SHBD family, and are beyond grateful for the exceptional care they give both our kiddos every day. This team goes above and beyond to help our kids learn, develop key skills and have fun. Read more >

We have had our children attend small hands for the past six years, even through COVID, and we could not be happier with them. We love getting picture updates throughout the day and being able to see them on video whenever we’d like.

They have always worked with us in helping accomplish goals for our children (potty training, separation anxiety, etc.).

Another bonus is that we can send them to daycare without worrying about packing food, diapers, and snacks. It’s one less thing to think about in the morning Read more >

We are so very happy with Small Hands big Dreams! It’s a wonderful place to send your little ones. Ms. Alannah is the BEST!!! Read more >

Worked here for about 5-6 months and I miss the children so much they will always hold a place in my heart, wish I could see their little faces. I worked mainly with the penguins aka the 3-4 year olds and they know how to count to 30 and they know all their shapes, colors and alphabet. They have a well structured and organized room. I only called off once while working here aside from that I never was late or missed a day to see the wonderful children. The best daycare I've worked at. Read more >

Ms. Alannah and Ms. Tawana are also always going above and beyond to provide excellent care for not only our child, but every child at the center. Read more >

SHBD has been a home to our kids for the past two years. Ms. Alannah is one of the main reasons our twins enjoy going to school every day. She makes learning enjoyable. She is so loving and caring towards all of the students and stepped up when the Pre-K classroom needed a teacher. Ms. Alannah truly puts her heart and soul into not only the students but SHBD. We are so thankful for her and all that she does for our kids. Read more >

I cannot recommend this daycare enough! My son has been attending for over four years now, and we have had nothing but positive experiences. The staff is incredibly caring, attentive, and always go above and beyond to ensure that the children are happy, healthy, and engaged.

My son's current teacher, Ms. Alannah has made an amazingly strong impact on him. She has a natural warmth and energy that instantly puts children at ease. She is always patient, kind, and understanding with her students, and she creates a fun and nurturing environment where they can learn and grow.

The entire staff is incredibly skilled at creating activities that engage the children and encourage their creativity and curiosity. They always finds ways to challenge and inspire them. My son has learned so much here!

What really sets Ms. Alannah apart is the way she connects... Read more >

It was extremely hard and daunting finding a daycare during the pandemic but my daughter has thrived at SHBD. She has progressed to the preschool class and under the care and teaching of Ms. Alannah continues to thrive! Read more >
