Our Daycare Program
For Infants and Toddlers
This program serves infants as young as 3 months through toddlers aged 2-1/2.It is also open to children over 2-1/2 whose parents do not wish to enroll their child in our preschool program.
In our daycare program, we provide loving attention to our infants and toddlers. In tandem with parents, we build a developmental path that is suited to each child and family situation. As your child grows, our caregivers support each stage and milestone of his or her physical, cognitive and emotional development.
For very young infants, we work with parents on individualized feeding and sleeping routines. In the early years we help to establish healthy eating habits, teach children to take care of personal hygiene such as toilet learning and washing hands, practice the life skills of dressing themselves, cleaning up after a meal and picking up toys after play.
We assist in developing gross and fine motor skills through both indoor and outdoor physical activities and games. We read books to children as a group and individually. We sing songs and learn about the world through games and exploring the environment. Youngsters are exposed to language constantly as they hear adults converse and older children interact. We teach children explicitly to communicate with words or simple signs. We teach children to use language for sharing, taking turns, and proper etiquette such as “please”, “thank you”, “excuse me.”
We provide learning materials and age-appropriate toys to stimulate their cognitive thinking, problem solving and imagination. Emotionally, our small mixed-age setting enables our young ones to learn to socialize and experience the importance of bonding with their peers as they develop their first friendships.
