Little Loved Ones
Preschool & Daycare
“Children are a heritage from the Lord.”
“I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”
“Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them.”
“Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me.”
“Train up a child in the way he should go.”
“Let all that you do be done in love.”
A calm, caring, Christian place in Belgrade, Montana, where every kiddo is known by name, loved, and reminded how wonderfully made they are.
Welcome, friends!
Hi, I'm Lori. At Little Loved Ones, your kiddos are cared for the way I'd care for my own: gently, patiently, and with a whole lot of love.
Our days are filled with play, learning, songs, stories and kindness. Every kiddo is special, unique, and made just right by God, and we want them to feel it every single day.
I've been caring for kiddos for .

We'd love to meet your kiddo
Ask a question, set up a visit, or save a spot. Lori will get back to you soon.
For Lori
Something made with love, just for you.
A gift for you, Lori
For all you have done for our family and so many others. It's your time to be blessed.
You've given me so much of your time and love, and you held me up when I lost Aaron. Lori, I would not be alive if it weren't for you. I just wanted to be with Aaron, and you held on to me. This is my way of giving a little of that love back.
This is your very own website for Little Loved Ones. It's made with love, and it's free.
What's inside
- Your website
A home for Little Loved Ones that parents can find and share. - Lori's Highlights
Photos you choose. Kiddo photos only show with a parent's OK. - Your private admin
Kiddos, families, check-in times, events, notes and money for taxes, behind your own passcode. - Family sign-ins
Each family gets its own private code and only sees their own kiddo. - Safety alerts
One tap to tell parents about a bear, the weather, or a closure. - Our family's book
A Goose Named Aaron, with an easy way to buy it.
Parent camera (optional). We can link your daycare cameras so each parent has their own private access and only they can watch. It's built to be as safe as possible, because these are children. You can turn it off, or choose not to use it at all.
An app for your phone. I can make you an app so everything you need is in one easy place: adding notes about an incident or a kiddo's behavior, signing up a new kiddo, or planning an event. Tell me what you'd want the app to do, and I'll build it.
Pick your website name. Once you pick your daycare's name, your app lives on the same name for free. For example:
- lorislittlelovedones.com (app: app.lorislittlelovedones.com)
- LLL1s.com (app: app.LLL1s.com)
- littlelovedonesmt.com or littlelovedonesdaycare.com
There's no pressure at all. If you'd rather not use any of this, that's completely okay. It's simply my way of showing how much I appreciate you. I don't have a lot to give, but this is something I can give.
The coding system I use costs me $100 a month, and with it I can run my websites and yours, plus the apps, all at once. If things grow a lot, like lots and lots of photos, it may go up to $200 a month someday, but $200 is the most it will ever be. Your website name is only about $11 a year, which I'm happy to cover.
What I'm really giving you is my time, and I'm so happy to give it to you.
Anything you want changed, just text me and I'll do it. I'll host, watch over and update your website for as long as I'm here. And I'll teach you how to manage it yourself, in case you ever want to or something happens to me.
What would make your days, and your daycare, easier? What takes the most of your time? Tell me and we'll work on it.
