Infant Program

Infant Program is created for children who are aged 0-12 months.
Language
Infants learn to use language to connect with their world, to develop relationships, and to get what they need. We encourage these skills through everyday experiences such as:
  • Singing lullabies and songs
  • Naming objects
  • Engaging in daily conversations
  • Exploring picture books
  • Playing rhyming and word games
Math
We provide appropriate materials and activities to promote the development of early mathematical understanding, such as shapes and space. Our baby will have the opportunity to learn:
  • Recognizing words that describe positions such as "up" or "under"
  • Becoming aware of space and variations in it
  • Understanding quantity concepts like "more"
  • Repeating an action to make the same thing happen again
  • Making choices from a group of items
Science
Science to infants is found in real world and everyday moments as they move through their environment, manipulate objects, and explore with all their senses. We help curious babies begin the process of discovery by:
  • Providing a sensory-rich environment that encourages exploration in a safe way
  • Experimenting with volume by filling and dumping buckets filled with toys
  • Using safe toys and materials with varied textures, smells, tastes and sounds
  • Playing peek-a-boo
  • Exploring nature in safe, outdoor environments
Art
Babies are immersed in rich and diverse experiences that capture their interest, nurture their development, and excite their senses. We guide children to explore their creative side and to appreciate the beauty of the art world by:
  • Painting with large brushes, sponges, and fingers
  • Using rattles and musical instruments
  • Dancing and moving to varied beats, music, and tempos
  • Playing with puppets and dolls
  • Reading vivid picture books
Social Play
Although they are our youngest citizens, infants can begin to understand the basic concepts that provide a foundation for becoming a happy, contributing member of society. We encourage a baby's exploration of the world around us by:
  • Looking at family albums made by parents and teachers
  • Setting up safe spaces that encourage play near peers
  • Showing affection and compassion every day
  • Engaging in imaginative, caring play such as rocking a doll
Health & Safety
Babies are exposed to healthy habits and routines to help them build a foundation for lifelong health. Your baby will have the opportunity to:
  • Enjoy physical activities both indoors and outdoors, in very safe environments designed specifically for infants
  • Identify and communicate his/her hunger needs
  • Become receptive to a variety of flavors and textures when he/she is ready for solid foods
  • Participate in routine health care when he/she is diapered and assisted with hand washing
