The infant room fosters the development of basic trust and assists in the normal development of the whole child. The infant learns through their senses as they watch and move freely throughout the day. The infants are considered as a whole person and are affected by the quality of emotional, as well as the quality of physical care.
The toddler environment offers very young children a unique cycle of self-development in a tender atmosphere of special understanding, respect, and support. This environment is unique in that it provides a very specific structure which fulfills the social, physical, emotional, and psychological needs for a very young child. It is an intimate classroom for the children to learn independence and to develop the whole self through learning materials that are self correcting. We introduce a wide range of concepts in a way that even the youngest children can understand.
The Explorer's and Seeker’s places are a living room for children. Children choose their activities from open shelves with self-correcting materials and work in distinct work areas – on tables or on rugs on the floor. Over a period of time, the children develop into a "normalized community" working with high concentration and few interruptions.
School Age: Before & After Care
Our Before and After care program provides children with a safe homelike environment where children are provided with a nutritious breakfast and a wholesome afternoon snack. Children are offered a quiet place to do homework and opportunities for individual and group tutoring. School age children are provided age appropriate games and activities which offer the opportunity for socialization and self directed play.
