Infants
Infants 6 weeks – 12 months
Our infant program provides the foundation for future language and social development. In our unique infant room, your child is encouraged to explore. Our infant curriculum includes exposure to classical music and age-appropriate play activities. Beginning with a soft and safe indoor play area and moving to a specially designed shaded outdoor terrace, your infant interacts and discovers the wonders of the world. Individualize schedules are developed for each child based on their own needs.
Parents are encouraged to visit at any time. Nursing mothers have a special quiet place to feed their baby.
