Infants
6 weeks to 15 months
Our infant program is designed to meet the individual needs of each infant. Your child will be cared for by a primary care giver to provide consistency during feeding, napping, interactions and communication with parents.
Toddlers
15 months of age to 2.9 years old
The toddler age is when personalities begin to shine through and new steps to independence can be seen daily. From transitioning to sippy cup, taking on finger food and even some begin making trips to the bathroom. It is an exciting time as your child explores new territories and begins forming relationships. Walking, talking and discovering a new world of play.
Pre-School
2.9 - 4 years of age
In our high-quality preschool program, social and emotional development is a primary goal. You will see children learning to communicate with one another, develop budding friendships, share, take turns, and to develop age-appropriate attention spans, as well as to learn to use words to handle conflict and emotions.
