Programs
Learning Through Play
Our programs are designed to meet the needs of both children and families through specific goals and objectives. We focus on building off of the strengths of each child, taking advantage of every teachable moment.
INFANTS
6 months - 18 months
Our staff is educated and trained in infant development, and we provide a stimulating, safe and secure environment to encourage the infants to explore and trust their caregivers. In this age group, we encourage the children to explore. Activities are child-initiated. Our caregivers act as facilitators for the children, and they give support and guidance. The activities offered for this age group are for manipulation and exploration. Materials in the rooms will be rotated often, as the interests of the children change.
Toddlers
18 months - 2 years 9 months
Toddlers learn through exploration. They are beginning to have a structure in their day. Morning circle time includes a variety of activities to foster language development and sensory exploration like storytime, music, dance, song, and fingerplays. Toddler teachers work on an individual basis with each student while others rotate to activities such as art, puzzles, blocks, and toys. Our toddler lesson plans also include indoor and outdoor manipulative activities geared to developing the child's motor skills. We also encourage and introduce potty training skills.
Preschool
2 years 9 months - 5 years
Kindergarten preparation is emphasized at this age level. Children will build a strong academic foundation through a combination of structured learning and a play-based learning curriculum. Weekly themes provide fun activities. The teachers prepare lessons geared toward readiness skills and self-expression. In this preschool classroom, children will build their new knowledge through past experiences and existing knowledge. Carefully structured learning environments, integrated learning centers, group play, and teacher-encouraged activities take place throughout the day.
