Growing Together
WELCOME
At Little Tiny Tots Learning Center, we believe learning should be hands-on, engaging, and rooted in real-life experiences. Our program blends traditional early childhood education with outdoor exploration, problem-solving, and responsibility—because we know children learn best when they can touch, see, and experience the world around them.
Founded and directed by Ashlynn Godefroid, Little Tiny Tots reflects a lifetime of working with children. In her early career, Ashlynn pursued work in foster care and social services, where she discovered a deep passion for supporting children in meaningful ways. That commitment to building confidence, resilience, and curiosity is at the heart of everything we do.
Here, we don’t just prepare children for kindergarten—we prepare them for life. Whether it’s planting a garden, exploring nature, or working on creative projects, every day is an opportunity to grow. We offer a safe, nurturing, and active learning environment where children are encouraged to explore their interests, develop their skills, and discover the joy of learning.
Our goal is simple: give children the tools, experiences, and support they need to succeed—both in school and in life—while building a community where families feel welcome, supported, and heard.

Owner
Hi, I’m Ashlynn Godefroid, owner of Little Tiny Tots Learning Center. I believe children learn best through hands-on experiences—whether that’s exploring the outdoors, caring for animals, or taking on real-life responsibilities that help them grow into confident, capable individuals. My own background has shaped that belief. I grew up deeply involved in 4-H and FFA, spending a decade in the show ring from the age of 8 to 18. I graduated high school a year early with plans to become a veterinarian, but along the way I discovered my true calling—supporting and guiding children. That led me to work in foster care, where I saw firsthand the difference a safe, nurturing environment can make. Now, I’ve brought that passion to early childhood education, creating a place where children can learn, explore, and feel supported every step of the way. Outside of my center, you’ll usually find me outdoors—whether it’s building projects with my family, working on my tube chassis, or hitting the trails in search of the next rock climb. I believe in showing children that learning happens everywhere, not just inside four walls, and I’m honored to be part of helping them discover their own strengths and passions.

Our Story
Little Tiny Tots Learning Center was born from a deep love for children and a strong desire to provide them with a nurturing space. When the future of our community's daycare was in question, we recognized it as God's calling to realize the dream of running our own early learning center.
This center is more than just a daycare; it's a vibrant hub for exploration, creativity, and learning life skills. Here, we dedicate ourselves to ensuring that every child feels valued, supported, and inspired to take their first steps into the world of learning.
