Wide Open Spaces, Small Staffs. A Curriculum That Travels With Your Teachers

In a small Wyoming program the director may cover the front desk, the infant room and the budget in the same afternoon, and in-person training can mean a long drive. With LBP the week’s plans, materials lists and coaching sit on a tablet or phone, so a teacher in a family child care center outside Gillette has the same lessons and guidance as a center in Casper. Nothing to copy, nothing to mail, and nothing lost when staff change.

Your Wyoming Program's Toolkit

Learning Beyond Paper is the only all-in-one cloud-based curriculum for early childhood that includes a virtual instructional coach. Wyoming programs receive a full year of plans across five age bands, Spanish and English activities, an observational assessment tool, 49.5 on-demand hours in LBP University and Wyoming alignment documents for infants through age five.

Wyoming Guidelines and Foundations Alignment

LBP's four Wyoming documents cover birth to 12 months, 13 to 24 months, 25 to 36 months and ages 3 to 5. They map our activities to the benchmarks of the Wyoming Early Learning Guidelines (birth to 3) and Foundations (3 to 5), 2015 edition, which DFS links for providers on its technical assistance page. Every band is also aligned to the Head Start ELOF, so lesson records speak to both state and national expectations.

ELBY Coaches Wyoming Teachers in Real Time

Wherever a Wyoming teacher is working, ELBY sits inside each lesson. It suggests how to make an activity easier or harder for a particular child and points out what to observe and record.

LBP University: 49.5 Hours, No Travel Needed

Wyoming staff can take 49.5 hours of on-demand LBP University courses from anywhere, included in the subscription. Courses follow the curriculum itself, which helps a new teacher get comfortable in the classroom long before the next in-person training.

Every Age Group in Your Wyoming Program, Covered

Wyoming centers and family homes get age-specific plans for infants, young toddlers, older toddlers, preschoolers and pre-K, all inside one subscription.

What LBP Takes Off a Wyoming Director's Desk

Running a program in Wyoming often means few hands and long distances. LBP helps directors with four recurring jobs: meeting training-credit rules, onboarding staff, serving families who speak Spanish and keeping costs predictable.

Training credits and daily practice

DFS asks staff who provide direct care to complete at least 12 training credits a year in early learning, early childhood or child development, with eight health and safety credits every two years. ELBY and LBP's guided lessons turn those topics into daily classroom practice.

Infant rooms get specialized support

Wyoming staff who care for infants complete at least two credits of specialized infant training every year. LBP's infant and young toddler plans, with ELBY's prompts, help them use that training with babies every day.

Spanish-speaking families feel included

About 35,600 Wyoming residents age 5 and older speak a language other than English at home, and roughly three in four of them speak Spanish. LBP gives you English and Spanish versions of each activity and family resource at no added cost.

Flat pricing for any size program

A Wyoming family child care home and a large center use the same yearly subscription for every room and every teacher, from infants through pre-K.

A Ready-Made Curriculum for Wyoming's Mix of Programs

Wyoming does not have a state-funded preschool program under NIEER’s definition. Early learning happens in a wide mix of settings: licensed child care centers and family homes, Head Start, district programs using Title I, developmental preschools, and preschools for TANF-eligible families funded through DFS grants. In 2024 the Wyoming Department of Education also distributed $2.7 million to fourteen preschools serving low-income children. On the quality side, WY Quality Counts, housed in the Department of Workforce Services, funds scholarships, grants and training, and DFS technical assistance coaches support providers by request. Whatever your setting, Learning Beyond Paper gives you complete plans for every age band, observation tools and lesson records in one place.

Common Questions From Wyoming Programs

Answers for Wyoming directors on early learning guidelines, DFS licensing, training credits, the Child Care Subsidy Program and getting started.

LBP’s Wyoming documents map all four of our age bands to the Wyoming Early Learning Guidelines (birth to 3) and Foundations (3 to 5), 2015 edition, which DFS still links on its technical assistance page. Each document lists the Wyoming benchmark next to the LBP activities that address it, and every band is also aligned to the Head Start ELOF. See the documents on our curriculum alignments page.

The Wyoming Department of Family Services licenses family child care homes (3 to 10 children), family child care centers (up to 15) and child care centers (16 or more). LBP gives each age group a written weekly plan and a record of completed activities and observations, which helps when a licensor asks how you plan learning. Everything is stored online, so the record is there even when staff change.

We do not claim it will. DFS requires anyone who provides direct care more than 24 hours a month to complete at least 12 training credits a year in early learning, early childhood or child development, including eight health and safety credits every two years. LBP University’s 49.5 hours of on-demand professional learning come with your subscription; ask your DFS licensor before counting any of it.

Not under NIEER’s definition. Its 2025 yearbook lists Wyoming among the states without a state-funded preschool program, while noting district Title I preschool, developmental preschools for children with disabilities, DFS grants for TANF-eligible families and $2.7 million the Department of Education distributed to fourteen preschools in 2024. LBP’s 3-to-5 lessons and observation tool work in any of those classrooms.

Yes. DFS runs the Child Care Subsidy Program for low-income families who are working or in employment-related education, and local DFS offices decide eligibility. Providers must be licensed or legally exempt and register with DFS. LBP has no effect on registration, billing or rates, and we make no payment promises; it gives every child in the room the same curriculum.

WY Quality Counts, part of the Department of Workforce Services, raises awareness of quality care and funds scholarships, grants and training for early childhood professionals. DFS also offers technical assistance coaches who help providers by request. LBP adds the classroom piece: complete plans, ELBY coaching and observation records. Together they give your team a clear plan for each day and a record of growth over the year.

Yes. Every activity and family engagement resource is available in Spanish and English at no extra charge. Census survey data compiled by USAFacts shows about 35,600 Wyoming residents age 5 and older speak a language other than English at home, and 74.6% of them speak Spanish. Teachers can share each week’s learning with families in the language they prefer.

One yearly subscription for the whole Wyoming program. That price includes all classrooms and teachers, infants through pre-K, along with ELBY, LBP University, the observational assessment tool, English and Spanish content and the Wyoming alignment documents. There are no charges per teacher or per room, and customers can ask us for grant-writing support.

Yes. Wyoming programs get a 30-day free trial with full access for every classroom and age band. Use the month to run real lessons with your staff and children, then start a yearly subscription only if LBP is a good fit for your program.

Yes. Wyoming licenses family child care homes to care for 3 to 10 children without additional staff, and those children can range from babies to preschoolers. LBP’s five age bands let one provider plan for infants, toddlers and preschoolers from one login, with Spanish and English family materials included. Find out more on our family child care page.
