Our Mission
The Little Sprouts mission is to create a safe, loving, respectfully inclusive environment where children enjoy spending their time, are challenged and motivated to learn. Children are provided daily with opportunities to explore their world while building a foundation for life-long learning.
Our focus is to provide a stimulating early learning experience that promotes each child’s language and literacy, executive function, social emotional development, physical development, cognitive development, and creative expressions.

Owner, Director, ECE Teacher

Hi! My name is Renee Lee. I am the owner, director, and ECE teacher at Little Sprouts Child Care. I was born and raised in Southern China, and I currently live with my husband, Lee, my son, Baron, and my dog, Oreo. Opening this child care has been a dream of mine since I was a preschool teacher. I have over 10 years of professional experience working with children in child care and preschool settings. In 2021, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Lake Washington Institute of Technology. My philosophy in teaching young children is that all children can learn. No matter what their abilities are or where they come from. I enjoy helping children achieve their milestone goals in language, social/emotional, physical, phonological, fine motor, and cognitive development. I feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to be involved in that process.
Experience:
10+ years teaching in early childhood settings
Worked with ages birth - 12 years
Kindergarten Support: English learning, letter recognition, writing and arithmetic
School-Age Support: Math homework help
My favorite quote is “Play is often talked about as if it were a relief from serious learning. But for children play is serious learning. Play is really the work of childhood.”
