Enrolling Now for Summer & Fall of 2022


God's Little Angels provides preschool education in Mankato, MN. We offer all day preschool with smaller class sizes and an additional staff person in each classroom for more one on one interactions. This allows us to create more learning opportunities by creating conversations and building on what the children are already creating during play. 


We have Jesus time each day, we have Pastor visits once a month, and we also pray a few times each day. We love bringing the children closer to Jesus.


We prefer hands on activities and encourage the children to use those types of activities where are manipulating objects. We will do some paper activities but the children learn better with hands on activities for small groups. We are able to incorporate two small groups a day with the all day preschool.


We also make each of our transitions purposeful. We include activities where they are using letters, numbers, opposites, beginning letter sounds, etc. This also allows u to manage the environment of the classroom. It eliminates all of the children in the bathroom at one time and decreases their wait time.



Our Preschool Options


  • Full-day preschool for 3-year-old children
  • Full-day preschool for 4-year-old children
  • Morning or full-day preschool options for 5-year-old children
