Kalie Dye
Little Lambs Teacher
Teacher Kalie’s education background is Early Childhood Education and Child and Youth Care. She is heading into her 26th season working with and supporting children and families in our community. Throughout the years, Teacher Kalie has had a few roles – from guiding young children to supporting youth in need, from visiting with families to counselling women and children in crisis. Kalie enjoyed each step and took in all that she could learn.
One thing Kalie does in the Preschool Classroom is use all her skills to help the children and their families navigate the beginning of their education journey. It can be tricky to take the first steps into preschool for the children as well as the parents. Using a play-based and faith centered model, Kalie has created a space with Ms. Nikola that welcomes and cares for families as they learn and grow.
Kalie enjoys adventures outside of the classroom with her family and dogs. You can find her reading in the sun, walking the dogs with her husband, on a treadmill at the gym, watching her daughter in Taekwondo, throwing clay in an art class, posing on a yoga mat, behind the curtain in a play, enjoying the mountain air, or snuggled up watching a movie.
She is looking forward to a great year full of love, laughing, fun and learning!
Nikola Kays
Little Lambs Classroom Support
Ms. Nikola’s educational background is Early Childhood. Ms. Nikola started her journey 19 years ago working in daycare. Since then, she has worked in out of school care where she moved into her role as an Educational Assistant. Most of her years were spent working with children who needed a little extra love and guidance.
In the classroom Ms. Nikola works alongside teacher Kalie to ensure they are doing their very best to meet all the needs and goals of the children. Together they collaborate using all the knowledge they have learned to plan for the very best year. One of her best skills is the way she is able to connect with the children.
Nikola enjoys spending time with her family, her children keep her very busy. When she is not taking care of others she loves spending time outside. Quite often you will find her taking her lunchtime walk around the lake. She also enjoys spending time with her dogs, camping, dirt biking and water sports.
She cannot wait to get this year started and looks forward to getting to know all the children while making fun memories.
Where are we?
Little Lambs Christian Preschool is located at 20 Rocky Mountain Blvd in West Lethbridge, within Immanuel Lutheran Church. Our classroom includes areas for Dramatic play, Gross and Fine Motor activities, Books and Puzzles, Creative Art, Literacy and Self Regulation, Sensory Space and Gather Time. Our classes also have access to the Fellowship Hall located on the main floor of the church, for use as a gymnasium.

Why Little Lambs exists
Little Lambs Christian Preschool is a ministry of Immanuel Lutheran Church. It is our desire to meet the children’s spiritual, physical, social, educational and emotional needs in a Christ-centered, safe and loving environment.
The Christian environment provided by our Preschool is committed to fulfilling the goals of a quality childhood education. The program will provide a nurturing atmosphere that offers a thematic approach to learning through play. Play is an opportunity for children to interact with their peers, learning language and social skill and developing friendships.
The children experience music, science, art and drama. They explore elements like weather, sand and water, and play with puppets, blocks, puzzles and much more. Children need to be given the opportunity to ask questions, explore and discover, using all five senses. Encouragement and positive reinforcement for each child are necessary to instill a love of learning.
