Our Programs

Infants
Our infant program provides a safe, nurturing, and clean environment where babies can explore independently, interact, and build trust with their caregivers. Caring educators work closely with parents to ensure continuity of care, nurturing each baby through their developmental milestones. Daily “heart-to-heart” time includes feeding, snuggling, singing, reading, playing, and laughing to foster a secure and enriching environment.

Toddlers
Toddlers are natural explorers, and our program is designed to fuel their curiosity. Classrooms feature safe, age-appropriate furniture and toys, promoting active engagement and learning.

• Curriculum: Monthly calendars and newsletters keep parents informed of classroom activities. Interactive, hands-on lessons enhance social, emotional, language, and cognitive skills through storytime, singing, and games. Weekly Music and Movement lessons, taught by a certified teacher, encourage participation and physical activity.
• Outdoor Play: Toddlers enjoy running, climbing, sliding, sandbox play, and bike riding.
• Daily Reports: Parents receive daily updates on mood, meals, diapering/toileting, and other activities.

Preschool
Our preschool program introduces children to a world of learning, fostering language, social, emotional, and critical thinking skills. The program builds a strong academic and literacy foundation to prepare children for kindergarten and beyond. Educators engage children with responsive conversation, daily reading, and writing practice.
