Joyce Harrington, Owner

"My name is Joyce Harrington and I am the owner of the Little Sunshine's Playhouse and Preschool in Ozark, MO. It was through knowing Rochette Dahler (owner and founder of LSP) that I became a part of LSP. I have a business and accounting background, but that really wasn't what I loved doing. I saw how happy Rochette was in owning her business and that inspired me to become her first franchisee - I wanted to have the same long-term impact on my community and the children in it.

We opened the doors in Ozark in 2005. I honestly love being part of LSP and having the opportunity to shape the lives of young children every day! I feel that I have the best preschool in my area and I'm very proud of all of our accomplishments!

On a more personal level, I have three children of my own and seven grandchildren. We have all lived in this area for about 20 years."

Heather Wilson, Director

"Welcome to Little Sunshine's Playhouse and Preschool located in Ozark, MO. My name is Heather Wilson and I have been the Program Director since October 2009. I have worked in child care for over 13 years from washing dishes in the afternoons as a high school student to being a Program Director of two other preschools for 10 years. I received my B.S. in Public Relations from MSU in 2005 and am currently pursuing my teaching certification for elementary education. Little Sunshine's Playhouse and Preschool provides me with the satisfaction of seeing children learn and grow through their own meanings. I feel blessed to be a part of such a wonderful school with a great sense of community.

On a personal note, I have been married to my high school sweetheart for 10 years. Jonathan and I have two beautiful children, Ava who is eight and Ethan is five. We enjoy family time with friends and participating in church activities."
