We believe that children learn by doing; a child-centered, yet teacher-directed environment is most appropriate for an effective early childhood program. Our staff possesses the best skills to offer a warm, supportive, and exciting environment with a very small student/teacher ratio, allowing more one-on-one attention. Focusing on one child at a time allows teachers to examine both their strengths and areas of need in order to “customize” an individual program for each child. In doing so, we are respecting the learning style of each child, and tailoring our curriculum accordingly. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/01657ed6-a629-45d4-8da7-9799641f5fc0/IMG-4273.jpeg Mission and Philosophy - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/5a3c38d4-3bc9-4e3b-90f4-63c4776c1cd6/inside+classroom.jpg Mission and Philosophy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/36f21aaf-53bf-4aec-8bba-539e6c66d2d1/IMG-4274.JPG Mission and Philosophy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/f88488cb-666d-4b87-a87d-683f9016b2cc/IMG_6632.jpeg Mission and Philosophy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/463dca79-64e4-4eab-ac07-d33c8ddfe474/IMG-4275.jpg Mission and Philosophy https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/012dc9b8-f0b8-47fd-9a84-7dea92f281fb/Untitled.jpeg Mission and Philosophy - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.crestedbuttepreschool.com/about daily 0.75 2025-08-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/262ccc7b-f666-4e17-926d-8c68865a3d30/IMG-3236.jpg Meet our Staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/fb7e3e8f-969f-4738-9f8c-d1211a4f5042/IMG_6638.jpeg Meet our Staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/463dca79-64e4-4eab-ac07-d33c8ddfe474/IMG-4275.jpg Meet our Staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/29bec351-f47a-4788-b25f-4e05ac8f514f/IMG_6636.jpeg Meet our Staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/1ba0c1a0-56ae-46e3-9279-5f61a1a18c93/IMG-3311.jpg Meet our Staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/81224bfe-6b8b-4b03-be90-e456002350e9/IMG_6630.jpeg Meet our Staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/fb36a0a6-0499-487c-b2b6-07caf17b47c5/IMG-4281.JPG Meet our Staff https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/0aaa3fce-73df-4baf-a271-2b374c2a5a12/Profile_JessicaRutherford_NolanBlunck-1-min.jpeg Meet our Staff - Meet Jessica Buck, Owner & Director Jessica graduated from Phillips Exeter Academy in 1990, Georgetown University in 1994, and got her elementary teaching certificate from Western Colorado University in 1999.

Owned Preschool in Crested Butte, CO Little Red is a privately owned preschool and infant/toddler center located 6 miles south of the town of Crested Butte, CO in a beautiful mountain setting. Little Red opened in 2001 with Teeny Red following in 2008, and it’s been a wonderful journey. We accept children as young as 3 months all the way up to Kindergarten age. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/96269da9-d145-4db9-904d-73a25d78be09/IMG-4279.JPG Home - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/78335302-d544-4d57-a963-b37ce46d435d/Profile_JessicaRutherford_NolanBlunck-8+%281%29.jpeg Home - At Little Red, we pride ourselves on the fact that we are not a franchised daycare, but a private preschool and infant/toddler center with an actively involved and passionate director/owner. This makes the environment very special. All of our teachers are enthusiastic and well-qualified (including CPR and First Aid certified), and are expected to know each child individually and teach with love and respect. We are proudly certified to take children with special needs, as well as having therapy provided at our school. We also take children through both the CPP and CCAP programs for families who qualify. https://www.crestedbuttepreschool.com/curriculum daily 0.75 2025-08-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/1642563083393-I7M5H9VDVU33MVUCMP75/IMG_6622.jpeg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/1642563098930-FIL3CTCMC4WZVTASTU37/IMG_2186.jpeg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/67dfb1dc-74f6-4d5a-b22d-cd6663d2dde8/IMG_6639.jpeg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/57974676-4e62-4d49-89d8-c7a807b75e3d/Untitled%281%29.jpg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/fbbac0b2-5687-4d3b-84bf-0c6be5f9647d/IMG-4277.JPG Curriculum - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/c1b7d993-aecd-4829-a969-dfb6b1f7980c/IMG-4281.jpg Curriculum - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/a54858e0-aa08-451d-9498-99fd95a0e6fc/IMG-3452.jpeg Curriculum - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/ace6ee0c-614a-47c7-a767-4147581fcdd3/IMG_6637.jpeg Curriculum - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/30b99ff0-233c-4146-a053-5593d9eb1ba8/IMG-4278.JPG Curriculum - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/1642563875792-U5PEFIJ3CFH1ECJ5N989/IMG_6622.jpeg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/6cc29de1-9345-4f64-ba2f-b3c03fd9e187/Untitled%282%29.jpg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/1642563875950-RGGNZ1MWSMI70P379SJ2/IMG_6623.jpeg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/0cbe60e3-8e0a-4280-ae5f-ab6ffbcdb6d1/Untitled%289%29.jpg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/1642563882995-6UDHYTE7BP7GXZLAADIN/IMG_6624.jpeg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/17072bae-1035-48c7-b5bb-76b4f1e0fcc5/Untitled%286%29.jpg Curriculum - Toddlers On the toddler side, we follow a predictable schedule that’s the same every day so they know what to expect. We have a 5:1 teacher to student ratio. Since their attention span is limited, each time is 15 minutes unless they are engaged (then we let them keep going!). These kiddos do art, circle time, centers, sensory table time, music, stories, puzzles, small motor, free play, dramatic play, large motor time, and more! This is a great age to work a lot on social skills, and develop their vocabulary so that they can navigate nicely in a group. They are like little sponges, and it’s such an impactful age! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/6c29e75d-4d43-4f46-9abb-5b7244b3314c/Untitled%287%29.jpg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/8fb6150f-baec-4df9-99e7-298f9e152dd2/Untitled%283%29.jpg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/64a03266-6bb1-4d75-85a3-10a9ab42c66d/Untitled%288%29.jpg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/bf356ec0-1876-4604-bb09-ba8e838d8d54/Untitled%285%29.jpg Curriculum https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/29bec351-f47a-4788-b25f-4e05ac8f514f/IMG_6636.jpeg Curriculum - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/463dca79-64e4-4eab-ac07-d33c8ddfe474/IMG-4275.jpg Curriculum - Summer Programs During the summer months, we are busier than ever maintaining what we have learned throughout the school year while going on adventures on a daily basis. Little Red becomes more of a summer camp, and your kids will get the opportunity to learn through their environment and travel out and about in our community. It’s a fun-filled experience and one that extends to older kids up to age 9. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/7c61b1d2-35a3-4f1f-ac0f-c670b25bc2aa/IMG_6637.jpg Curriculum - Special Needs Students One other important curriculum note is that we are certified to take children with special needs who are on IEPs, and these kids can receive their therapy at Little Red! This means we have outside experts in our school working with kids on Speech therapy, Physical therapy, Occupational therapy, and more! It is so rewarding to be able to help kids with all types of needs, and is also great to see the other kids learn that not all kids learn the same way. https://www.crestedbuttepreschool.com/parent-resources daily 0.75 2026-02-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/fb68ad28-8cdc-4bcb-84c7-e584cb2df322/little-red-school-house-colorado.jpg Parent Resources - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/262ccc7b-f666-4e17-926d-8c68865a3d30/IMG-3236.jpg Parent Resources - Where We’re Going Excursion Calendar https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/95afa7ad-06bc-4b37-8478-b53585c68348/hp2.jpeg Parent Resources - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.crestedbuttepreschool.com/employment daily 0.75 2026-02-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/262ccc7b-f666-4e17-926d-8c68865a3d30/IMG-3236.jpg Employment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/fb7e3e8f-969f-4738-9f8c-d1211a4f5042/IMG_6638.jpeg Employment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/463dca79-64e4-4eab-ac07-d33c8ddfe474/IMG-4275.jpg Employment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/29bec351-f47a-4788-b25f-4e05ac8f514f/IMG_6636.jpeg Employment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/1ba0c1a0-56ae-46e3-9279-5f61a1a18c93/IMG-3311.jpg Employment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/81224bfe-6b8b-4b03-be90-e456002350e9/IMG_6630.jpeg Employment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/fb36a0a6-0499-487c-b2b6-07caf17b47c5/IMG-4281.JPG Employment https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/618442a428c2f603096adaa1/fd299e8e-046e-498a-939f-c725218df426/maxresdefault+%281%29.jpg Employment - Requirements You must be Early Childhood Teacher certified to get a Lead Teacher job, or be motivated to obtain this certification within the 1st 6 months of employment.
