Our Programs
Over time, we’ve designed and adapted programs to meet the high standards of today’s world of education. By providing a supportive environment, we make sure each child receives exactly what they need.
Early Preschool Programs
Infant, Waddler, Toddler Programs
8 weeks to 24 months
Our caregivers are committed to excellence in the quality of nurturing developmental milestones that come so quickly in those first months of life. The programs are structured by use of the infant/toddler Creative Curriculum and Baby Signs. In our infant classroom every interaction is an opportunity to learn and grow. Our Waddler students have mastered mobility and have begun to explore the world around them. The Toddler students are quickly learning so much about their world and growing their vocabulary.
Two's Programs
Younger 2's and Older 2's Program
2 year olds
Two year olds thrive on hands-on learning and desire to make big strides towards independence. Our program is structured by Creative Curriculum where children will experience circle time segments and lessons based on various themes and literature. In preparation for preschool, we will begin progression towards potty training based on the child’s interest and partnership with parents. All children must be fully potty trained before they are eligible to move onto the next program.
