Programs

Infants

Our infant program for children 6 weeks through 12 months emphasizes individualized care by loving and nurturing caregivers who are responsive to the developmental needs of each child. Your child’s first experience with childcare can be stressful, but our nurturing environment will help ease your child’s anxiety. Consistency in an infant’s daily schedule promotes a feeling of security, which leads to establishing bonds with their caregivers and building confidence to promote learning and development.

Toddlers

As toddlers, children are meeting new challenges as fast as they come. Walking, talking, socializing, and alternating between a balance of independence and dependence, curiosity and lots of energy are marks of a toddler. They learn to feed themselves, use the potty and indulge in artistic curiosity. Toddlers enjoy blocks, simple puzzles, manipulatives and dress-up. Language and motor skills start to develop in leaps and bounds. Music, rhymes, stories, outdoor play, and learning simplicities envelop much of the day.

Our toddler environment is designed to promote exploration, while continuing to encourage the physical and social aspects of development. Our teachers guide our toddlers to learn boundaries without discouraging their innate love of learning through a trusting and loving relationship.

Preschool

Young children learn by doing! This age marks the transition from toddler to preschooler. By age three, children have mastered most physical skills and begun to develop socially with peers in cooperative, more focused pay. They begin to sit for longer periods of time, listen to stories, sing songs and repeat simple rhymes.

We provide a structured environment with an intentional daily schedule and routine filled with activities planned around the following domains of learning: Language, Literacy, and Communication, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) as well as Social Studies, Health Education and Music. As preschoolers gain independence and self-control, they begin to think logically, and problem solve. Preschoolers consistently ask the "why” and "how” of the world around them and become imaginative, creative thinkers. By fostering this natural curiosity and integrating educational success with established classroom structure, children will develop self-esteem and confidence that are essential to learning.

Pre-Kindergarten

Children are naturally curious!  Our Pre-K children have grown into unique personalities with strong sense of self. These are curious learners who develop strong readiness skills in literacy, language and logical reasoning areas of development. The also grow socially and become problem-solvers, can resolve conflict and maintain healthy peer relationships.

Fine motor skills enable our youngsters to have control with writing materials so that school readiness such as writing letters and their name become evident. Phonological awareness, vocabulary, comprehension and critical thinking questions are emerging literacy skills we will work on during the Pre-K year. Characteristics such as staying on task, regulating behavior, and a positive, confident approach to learning, prepare our children for school success.
