Set Your Family Up For Success

In 2008, Jessica Lloyd started a daycare with 1 employee and 3 students. After 12 years, Jessica and her son Steve had a vision for the future: they recognized the need to create more outdoor learning experiences for children. This inspired the creation of Rocky Mountain Preschool, a family-owned early education program designed to provide important outdoor experiences to children in a safe and nurturing environment.
