The Infant and Young Toddler Enrichment Program is typically arranged in centers that stimulate learning and encourage social development. Areas such as Pretend Play, Library, and Music & Art, as well as access to mirrors and instruments, will aid in their growth as a whole child.

Afternoon walks to the Koi pond and Bird Sanctuary further enrich your baby’s curiosity and wonder. Our specialty teachers also provide age-appropriate music and movement for all our babies, encouraging your baby to listen and feel the sounds around them.

Our Creative Curriculum focuses on the whole child development and provides opportunities for your child to develop spiritually, socially, emotionally and physically. Your baby is loved and encouraged to work at his or her own pace.

The Creative Curriculum is a comprehensive, developmentally appropriate curriculum, which includes objectives for children’s development and learning. Babies are encouraged to use their senses to learn about and understand their world. Our nursery teachers balance individual attention with group experiences to ensure that your child is learning in productive ways. Your baby will be exposed to age-appropriate experiences that will engage and inspire!

Language development and listening skills are encouraged through verbal and visual stimulation of color, words, shapes, animals, environment, and music.

Experiential Learning is the process of learning through experience. Teachers will interact one-on-one with the infants and are frequently held or carried to provide them with a wide variety of stimuli and experiences.

Our staff talks to the infants before, during, and after moving the child to familiarize your baby with their surroundings. Each baby follows his or her own unique schedule until preparing for the transition to the Toddler Room.
