Our Infant Program

An exceptional place for your baby to thrive

Our space is built for babies on the move: look for bright mirrors, warm rugs, sensory tables, great books, and baskets filled with soft, natural materials. There are musical instruments, toys for pretend play, safe equipment, and outdoor places to explore. You’ll have peace of mind knowing that our stringent safety, security, and cleanliness standards meet or exceed all state and local guidelines.

Even these youngest of children are encouraged to learn about their world through our individualized curriculum that invites exploration, celebrates each important milestone, and supports the transition from the sensory motor world of infancy to the increasingly social and self-directed world of toddlers.

What Parents are Saying

Our greatest advocates are also our closest friends.

"The infant teachers have been wonderful with my son. You can really tell that they care about each baby in the room, and go above and beyond their job We very much appreciate all of the care and nurturing that you have given to our child The days that she spends with you all have been vital to her growing independence and sense of self, and we can't thank you enough. It is very comforting to know that she is in such great hands! "

Learning at Home

“How Big is Baby?”

You Will Need:

A baby!

Directions:

Hold the baby’s hands and cross them across her chest. Ask, “How big is baby?” While raising her arms gently over her head say “Sooooo Big.” Do this over and over. Soon your child will be raising her hands by herself in response to your question.

Tip:

Hold hands gently and stretch her arms slowly. Smile, look into her eyes and exaggerate your words.
