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

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! "

Work together to make a snowman. “Where do you think all this snow came from? What does our snowman need? What can we use to be his eyes? Does he need a hat? Is it a boy or a girl? Do we need a different hat for a boy? Do we have enough snow to make a snowman as tall as you. . .as tall as me? Let’s see! Do we want to name him?”
