Little VIP Daycare & Private School

Little VIP is a licensed family-home daycare, preschool, and private kindergarten for children from six weeks to five years old. Its Pre-K children are taught to read before kindergarten through an Early Reader Program, and the curriculum follows what the children are interested in, with hands-on learning and homemade, fresh meals. Children from the program sometimes have a graduation ceremony in a cap and gown before they move on to elementary school.

The owner, Lai Stender, runs the program with her staff, and families are invited to dinners, holiday gatherings and an Easter festival. Teachers text parents through the day about meals, naps and activities. Toddler day care is offered at the two Eugene locations, and a tour is the recommended way to see the place. The Countryside Lane home is at 3679 Countryside Lane in Eugene.
