Our Programs

Preschool

(3-5 yrs old)
Preschool children have many interests and are starting to investigate the widening world by experimenting with their developing use of language and social skills. Our program provides activities to help preschool children become problem solvers and lifelong learners. Through independent exploration, structured activities, and hands-on learning, preschool children will work on early literacy, math, science, and social studies concepts. Preschool is a time of enormous educational strides in language, social skills and problem solving.

Toddlers

(1-3 yrs old)
Our teachers bring strong professional backgrounds in early childhood education, with college degrees or equivalent hands-on experience in the field. Their training gives them a deep understanding of how young children learn, grow, communicate, and develop during these important early years.

In our toddler program, teachers use their knowledge of early brain development to create a flexible, engaging, and age-appropriate learning environment. Activities are thoughtfully planned to encourage curiosity, creativity, early literacy, self-confidence, and positive social interaction.
​
Our staff also understands the importance of both fine and gross motor development. Through play, movement, guided activities, and daily routines, children are supported as they build coordination, independence, friendships, and the foundational skills they need for future learning.

Infants

(6 Wks - 1 Yrs old)
The first years of life are a critical period for brain growth, bonding, communication, and early learning.

Our infant program focuses on creating a warm, safe, and nurturing environment where each baby receives individualized care, gentle interaction, and age-appropriate stimulation. Through consistent routines, sensory experiences, music, movement, and responsive caregiving, we support each infant’s physical, emotional, social, and cognitive development.

​The more stimulating the early environment, the more a child develops and learns. Language and cognitive development are especially important during the first six months to three years of life. ​
