Your child's first steps into learning begin with hands-on care and a foundation of genuine warmth.
At Little Hands N Feet Preschool & Childcare, we don't just watch children grow — we create the environment where curiosity thrives, confidence takes root, and every little milestone is celebrated.
More than a preschool — a place where little hands and feet feel at home.
Located at 111 E 12th St in Hobart, Indiana, Little Hands N Feet Preschool & Childcare has been a cornerstone of early childhood development in our community. We believe that the earliest years are the most formative, and that children learn best when they feel safe, valued, and genuinely excited to explore.
Our approach blends structured learning with free play, ensuring each child develops at their own pace while building the social, emotional, and cognitive skills they'll carry into kindergarten and beyond. Every day is an opportunity to discover something new — with caring educators who treat every child like their own.
