Jammin’ Sprouts Academy — where little hearts learn, play & grow together

Built around children.
Designed with room to grow.

Jammin’ Sprouts began with a simple question: what if little ones could learn together in a place that notices their personalities, their big feelings, and what makes them light up?

Miss Jasmine builds each routine with care, listens closely to parents, and creates a predictable rhythm where children feel safe enough to wonder, try, make mistakes, and try again.

Small enough to know every child.
Thoughtful enough to keep growing.

Our promise

Every child will be treated as a whole person: safe, capable, wonderfully curious, and worthy of patience.

  • Connection before correction
  • Curiosity before pressure
  • Growth before grades
  • Family partnership, always

Nat Walstead builds the app and the systems behind Jammin’ Sprouts Academy — the calendar, the class tools, the little things that make Miss Jasmine’s day easier so she can stay focused on the kids.
She and her partner Lucas do this kind of work across a handful of small, community-first projects.

A child-first place to learn how to learn

Preschool is bigger than memorizing the right answer. We help children notice, wonder, try, make mistakes, ask for help, and try again—the habits that make future learning possible.

Whole-child first

Feelings, friendships, movement, language, creativity, and early academics all belong in the same day. Positive guidance means no shame charts or “bad kid” labels.

Curiosity-led

Stories, art, nature, play, and real questions turn colors, letters, numbers, and shapes into things children can discover—not just repeat.

English + Spanish + ASL

Familiar songs, greetings, calendar words, weather, and everyday vocabulary are explored through English, Spanish, and simple ASL signs, giving children joyful, low-pressure practice.

Faith in practice

Faith is woven in gently through gratitude, kindness, service, and wonder. Children are invited to name their feelings and something they are thankful for.

Our year of wonder

Every month has a big theme, and every week gives children a new way to explore it through stories, movement, art, early literacy, math, science, and play.

Care you can see.
Growth you can trust.

Trust grows through clear communication, thoughtful systems, and honest progress. Here’s how we care for children, partner with families, and grow responsibly.

🛟

Safety systems

Private emergency, allergy, attendance, pickup, incident, and illness records.

🧭

A real learning plan

A full-year curriculum, daily rhythm, family handbook, and observation notes that help teaching adapt.

🤝

Family partnership

Two-way communication, parent goals, clear expectations, and respect for each child’s language and culture.

📈

Honest progress

What was tried, what families experienced, what children gained, and what will change next—without inflated claims.

🏛️

Responsible expansion

Licensing, insurance, training, background checks, staffing, facilities, and business structure before outside enrollment.

🔒

Child privacy

No public rosters or child profiles. Family details live in a protected portal, not on this website.

Clear answers, all in one place

Enrolled families receive the complete handbook and child-specific plan in the protected family portal. Public guidance is general and never replaces a child’s medical care plan or advice from their clinician.

Everyday care & safety 8 topics
Illness & returning

Children stay home for fever with illness symptoms, repeated vomiting or diarrhea, a contagious illness, or any day they cannot comfortably participate. Return plans follow current health guidance, the child’s care needs, and their clinician’s advice for child-specific concerns.

Arrival & goodbyes

Families sign in, share any care update, and use a short, predictable goodbye. Miss Jasmine helps each child settle with connection, a familiar routine, and a calm invitation to play.

Authorized pickup

Children are released only to people approved by the family. A new pickup person must be communicated ahead of time and complete the program’s identity and permission check. If anything is uncertain, the child stays with Miss Jasmine until a parent confirms.

Food & allergies

Allergy and care notes are checked before food is served. Shared snacks happen only when they are safe for everyone present, and food is prepared with preschool choking risks in mind. Families share any new allergy, reaction, or medical plan before the next class.

Behavior, biting & big feelings

We care for the hurt child first, get low, name the feeling, hold the safety limit, and help the child regulate with an adult before repairing and rejoining. Incidents are documented and shared privately. No shame charts, isolation, or “bad kid” labels.

Potty learning & accidents

Each child’s potty plan is followed with reminders, spare clothes, privacy, and kind words. Accidents are expected, handled quietly, and shared with the family without embarrassment.

Incidents & emergencies

Bumps, falls, bites, bathroom accidents, and other incidents are documented and communicated. Emergency contacts, care notes, first-aid supplies, exit plans, and an outdoor meeting place are kept ready. Immediate care comes first, followed by family notification as quickly as possible.

Photos, records & privacy

Children’s names, schedules, profiles, care notes, pickup information, and private photos live in the protected family portal and never belong on the public website.

Starting with Sprouts 5 topics
Is Jammin’ Sprouts open for enrollment?

Enrollment is currently full for the 2026–27 school year. You can join the waiting list in the contact form below, and Miss Jasmine will be in touch as soon as a place opens up.

What ages is the program designed for?

The curriculum is designed for children ages 2–5. Activities have easier and more challenging ways to join so a younger child can explore beside an older preschooler without being expected to perform at the same level.

Is the program licensed or accredited?

Jammin’ Sprouts is not presented as an accredited preschool. Its current small-group and remote learning formats are documented clearly, and any future expansion in enrollment, hours, location, or child-care services will happen only after the applicable Nevada and North Las Vegas requirements are verified and completed.

Do online and in-person school happen at the same time?

No. Jammin’ Sprouts uses one format at a time so Miss Jasmine’s attention stays with the children in front of her. Families receive the current schedule and any format change through the protected family portal.

What do families need to provide?

For online class, a learning device, crayons, and the shared workbook cover the basics; most activities use simple household materials. For in-person mornings, families bring a backpack, water bottle, lunch unless otherwise arranged, extra clothes, and their show-and-tell item on Fridays.

Learning & participation 6 topics
What does “child-first” mean here?

It means connection before correction and development before performance. Children learn through relationships, movement, play, repetition, stories, and hands-on discovery. We use calm redirection and co-regulation—never shame charts, demerits, or labels.

How are English, Spanish, and ASL included?

The hello and goodbye songs pair English lines with Spanish lines. Children also hear and practice Spanish greetings, weekdays, weather words, and useful everyday vocabulary, with simple ASL signs woven into songs, greetings, feelings, and classroom routines. The goal is a warm foundation and genuine exposure, not a claim of full language immersion or formal ASL instruction.

How is faith incorporated?

Gently and in age-appropriate ways: gratitude, kindness, service, and wonder are part of the rhythm. During check-in, children can name how they feel and something they are thankful for. Faith supports belonging; it is not used to shame, frighten, or measure a child.

Is a live video class too much screen time for preschoolers?

The remote class is short, interactive, and broken into movement-sized pieces. Children sing, speak, show objects, and move their bodies; then the day continues away from the screen with books, art, play, and a real-world mission. A parent or caregiver stays nearby as the child’s learning partner.

What if my child will not sit still or participate on camera?

Standing, wiggling, answering off camera, cuddling through a segment, or rejoining for the song or story all count. The familiar rhythm matters more than perfect screen behavior, and families can turn the camera off whenever a child needs a quieter moment.

How will you know whether children are growing?

By looking at more than memorized facts: participation, curiosity, communication, confidence, relationships, emerging skills, parent feedback, and what children make or say. Miss Jasmine can use observations to adjust the next activity. Growth is shared with families, not turned into grades.

Family partnership & the future 5 topics
How are private family records protected?

Families provide emergency contacts, allergy and care notes, authorized pickup people, and a private pickup verification code inside a protected family app. Public pages do not show children’s names, schedules, profiles, care details, or private photos.

How do families share updates or ask for help?

Enrolled families use the protected portal for attendance notes, care updates, questions, and school messages. Time-sensitive arrival, pickup, illness, or safety changes should be sent as soon as the family knows.

What if a family is traveling or misses class?

Families send a can’t-make-it note so Miss Jasmine knows not to wait. The online class can travel with the family when the child is comfortable joining; missed in-person days are welcomed back without pressure or punishment.

What if Miss Jasmine is sick or class needs to change?

Families receive a clear update through the portal. Depending on the situation, class may be shortened, adjusted for remote learning, rescheduled, or canceled. Children are not handed to an unannounced substitute.

How might Jammin’ Sprouts grow?

Thoughtfully. Future seasons may include additional families, local outings, community partnerships, or expanded programming. Any next step will keep the same child-first promise and come with the right legal, safety, financial, and professional foundation.
