Take home medical equipment varies by course. See the individual programs for details.
Programs are typically held at your child’s school. You will see the location when you register your child for the class. Camps, Badge Classes and Custom Classes will be held at various locations which will be shown on the registration page.
Absolutely! Your child’s safety is a top priority for LMS Seattle.

The great thing about this is YOU get to decide where to have your party! The possibilities are virtually endless!

We follow the Mixed-Aged Grouping teaching philosophy. Mixed-Aged Grouping allows the teacher to focus on teaching each child according to his or her own strengths, unlike in same-grade classrooms that often expect all children to learn at the same pace. The spirit of cooperation and caring in this environment makes it possible for children to help each other as individuals, not see each other as competitors and often allows the older children to have the opportunity to serve as mentors and to take leadership roles.
We have specific courses, Little Medical School 1 PREK, Little Veterinary School for PREK, and Little Nutrition School for PREK. All three courses are focused on lessons and techniques for 4-5 year old students.
No! Any course can be attended at any time.
Visit our registration page to look for public venues. They will be noted as such.

Potential Instructors
An ideal instructor is anyone currently enrolled in the medical field and loves working with children. Current college enrollment
or completion is fine. Any healthcare related education is definitely a plus: nursing, paramedic, PA, medical student, etc.
We also welcome teachers/education majors with an interest in children and healthcare as well.

No. While our instructors are primarily college or graduate students who are working in or pursuing careers in the healthcare field (pre-med/medical students, PA students, nurses or nursing students), anyone with an interest in teaching children about their bodies and a passion for health can apply.
