Infant Program

 We implement the R.I.E. approach that gives your baby, ages 10 weeks - 18 months, the freedom of movement and self-awareness. Your child will be loved and cared for so that they can develop at their own pace. 

You can enroll to come to our center in the infant program: Monday-Friday, Mon/Wed/Fri or Tue/Thu. 

    The infant classroom environment is physically safe, cognitively challenging and emotionally nurturing. Your baby will have uninterrupted playtime and the freedom to explore and interact with other infants. Child to teacher ratio is 4:1.

Your infant will be involved in all care activities (diapering, hand washing, feeding etc.) allowing him or her to become an active participant rather than be a passive recipient. 

Our teachers will observe your baby closely and sensitively in order to understand and fulfill his or her needs. 

 Children are natural explorers and discoverers, they thrive on learning. We encourage outdoor play for several reasons and utilize our park like play yard in the morning and afternoon. We have canopies that offer shade.

 Crawling or toddling on grass, sand, woodchips, or dirt forces a child to constantly adjust their equilibrium. This builds core strength, depth perception, and advanced balance much faster than navigating flat, indoor flooring. 

 The outdoor environment triggers natural communication. There are new visual targets like a fluttering leaf, or a low-flying bird—pre-verbal infants expand their receptive language and auditory tracking.

 Exposure to natural morning and afternoon light directly supports longer, more predictable nighttime sleep cycles. And the rich, varied sensory data (outdoor noises or shifting shadows) expands an infant's sensory threshold. This helps prevent sensory overload and effectively diffuses fussiness or late-afternoon restlessness.
