About Us

About me

Welcome to Little Wasi Childcare, founded by me, Silvia Solorzano, an experienced childcare professional with over 15 years of experience in the early education field. I began my journey as a private nanny before moving on to work in licensed daycares, gaining valuable experience along the way. In November 2022, I decided to pursue my passion for childcare and opened my own business, Little Wasi Childcare, located in Eugene, Oregon.

I strive to create a welcoming environment where children feel at home. My goal is to teach children important values such as respect, solidarity, camaraderie, and empathy through playful activities that promote social, emotional, and cognitive development. My Spanish dual language program is a unique aspect of Little Wasi, and I love to teach the language through games and songs, making learning fun and engaging for children.

Our Philosophy

At Little Wasi, we believe that children are the protagonists of their own learning journey. We strive to create a safe and nurturing environment that allows them to explore their world and learn through hands-on experiences. As guides, we accompany each child on their unique learning journey, challenging them with opportunities to identify problems and seek solutions.

Our philosophy is rooted in providing a simple and orderly aesthetic, real environment, where each element has a purpose in the development of the child. We believe that this approach allows children to grow and thrive in a holistic manner, building the foundation for a successful future.

Our Values

We believe in the power of companionship as a core value for our business. We strive to create a warm and nurturing environment that fosters strong relationships between children, parents, and caregivers. We believe that companionship helps children feel secure and supported, which in turn promotes their social and emotional development.

Companionship

Diversity is a core value at Little Wasi. We celebrate and embrace differences in cultures, backgrounds, and abilities, creating a welcoming and inclusive environment for all children and families.

Diversity

We believe in nurturing the social and emotional development of children by promoting empathy and understanding towards others. Our caregivers strive to create a safe and supportive environment where children can learn to express and understand their own emotions, as well as empathize with the feelings of others.
