ABOUT US
Welcome to the LTRC Co-op Tots Program! We are a small cooperative preschool program operated by the Lutherville- Timonium Recreation Council and housed at Pinewood Elementary School. Our program has been in existence for over 40 years and is licensed by the Maryland State Department of Education, Office of Childcare. The Co-op’s mission is to provide a program that is age appropriate while helping children develop physically, socially, emotionally, and intellectually by learning through structured play. Through meaningful play experience children develop concepts and skills basic to the more difficult tasks of learning in later years. The Co-op offers the parent the unique opportunity to see their child interact with the teachers and other children in school.

The Co-op offers the parent the unique opportunity to see their child interact with the teachers and other children in the program. Each class is staffed with a full-time teacher and assistant. As a member of the Co-op you will assist teachers in the preparation for the day as well as facilitate small group instruction such as completing a craft or playing a game.
Family Reviews
I think the LTRC tots program is probably one of the best kept secrets in the area. The teachers are fantastic, the tuition is unbeatable, and the community is welcoming. The instruction is engaging, play-based and developmentally appropriate. There were many special activities like sports day, pajama day, field trips, teddy bear picnic, etc. They also offer two summer camps after the end of the school year for fantastic prices. We’ve had a fantastic experience so far and I can’t wait to send my younger kids!
