Train a child in the way they should go and when they are old they will not depart from it.

Proverbs 22:6

Hayley Vincent

“I wholeheartedly recommend Sprouts Preschool! We just enrolled our third child at Sprouts and have loved our experience! The teachers have been devoted to student learning. I have been impressed by their kindness and energy as they teach through play, creative crafts, and build academic concepts. I thank Sprouts (teacher Josie and teacher Vanessa) for making my kids' first school experience so wonderful! They have helped instill a love of learning! 

Lauren Allen

“I cannot say enough about Sprouts! We have had three children attend. We have loved every teacher. The environment is safe, clean, organized, wholesome, and fun! I have felt confident in the learning my children have received to prepare them for kindergarten. We look forward to the memories every year! We love Sprouts!” 

Kaelee Darling

“They care not only about the ‘what’, but also the ‘why’. Sprouts Preschool has worked with us as parents to help our son be successful in this stage of life that is so exciting - and a little scary for kids. They are kind and encouraging and have helped my child becoming enthusiastic about learning!”  

Ashley Powell

“Coming out of COVID we wanted to put our son into a preschool program. He was so shy and nervous around other kids before he went to Sprouts, and now he is much more social and loves going to school. I think Sprouts did a great job of getting my son socialized for school. The teachers at Sprouts take the time to get to know the children and make going to school fun. I am beyond grateful for this group of teachers and staff and would recommend this program to anyone that has preschool aged children.”

Meet the Sprouts Director, Lindsey!

Background: • Lindsey has been a member of Hillspring for many years and is very excited to be a part of the staff at her home church. She grew up in the small town of Benton City and later moved to an even smaller town called Springdale. Her senior year of High School she met her husband and High-School sweetheart Josh. 

In 2002 Josh and Lindsey moved back to the Tri-Cities. They have 2 boys Brodie, 18 and Rowdie, 13. In her free time she likes to go to antique shows and be outdoors with her family. Lindsey believes all children learn differently and that’s what she loves about Sprouts. She also loves teaching each child about the love of Jesus Christ.

What I like most about the Sprouts Preschool: This community at Hillspring walks with Christ. I’ve joined a team where we all support each other in doing the Lord’s work. Together we are building a community all in the name of Jesus.

Favorite Movie: Steel Magnolias
