Infants
There is nothing more precious than a tiny baby. Each baby has their own individual needs for the stage they are in. Our infant program is designed around each child and is flexible in order to meet their changing needs (and their need to be changed). From six weeks to six months, their needs are simply to bond with their caregiver, and work on developing their muscles. We plan “tummy time” and simple games like peek-a-boo to encourage their natural curiosity.
From six months to one year, they learn to babble, move and play. We provide a safe environment and toys to encourage learning. Books, manipulatives, music, and blocks are some of the toys and activities available.
We also have small outdoor time. At some of our centers we even have a separate infant/toddler play area. (Infant and Toddler Care is available at select locations.)
Toddlers
Toddlers learn through everything they do. Which is why our toddler program is all about exploration. During this exciting year of their lives, your toddler learns to walk, talk, run, climb, and will begin to learn to take care of their own needs. We help them learn to feed themselves, to develop language skills, and to play alongside other toddlers. Whether it’s art, music or sand and water play, each toddler will have opportunities to explore and learn in a safe and fun environment.

Twos
Two-year-olds are ever inquisitive and seem to have limitless energy. Our program is designed to use that energy for your child’s learning, while supporting and encouraging their independence. We begin early preschool activities by introducing circle time with this age group. Circle time is a time for calendar activities, introducing letters, numbers, colors and shapes. Our curriculum, Mother Goose Time, is a wonderful resource for teaching and each month we learn about two themes. It provides us with hands-on activities and crafts to enhance your child’s learning.
During recess our teachers play group games in addition to supervised free-play activities on safe outdoor play equipment.
We also teach the beginnings of potty-training to reinforce what your child is learning at home.
Threes & Fours
Three- and Four-year-olds are at an age when they love to experiment. They wonder, “What will happen if I…” We provide an environment that is safe, yet encourages their learning and growth. Our three-and four-year-old program helps your child learn prewriting skills, recognize letters, numbers, shapes and colors, and even their own name. They will do simple science projects, learn new songs, and learn to play and share with other children. Our curriculum, Mother Goose Time, will teach them all about their world in terms they can understand by focusing on two themes per month. Through Mother Goose Time’s interactive and cooperative games, rhyming and storybook activities your child will grow socially, emotionally, physically and intellectually.
Outside recess time is provided with games and activities to encourage and develop large-motor skills and cooperation between children.
Preschoolers
Our preschool program is designed to help your preschooler meet all the kindergarten readiness goals. In addition to learning to recognize and write letters and numbers, your child will learn early math skills such as counting and measuring, early reading skills such as letter sounds, and physical skills such as hopping and skipping and to throw and catch a ball. Your child will learn to write their name and learn their left and right. This year is more structured, yet still allows the essential time for your child to learn through free-play and interaction with their peers. This is a year to prepare your child for their next stage in learning--their school years.
We use Mother Goose Time as our core educational curriculum and our program includes active learning, art, music, physical education, nutrition, and everything else you would expect from a high-quality preschool. Mother Goose Time has been proven to prepare children for success in school and it meets all of the requirements for national accreditation as well as the National Head Start guidelines for success.
Outside recess time is provided with games and activities including basketball and other team sports that teach cooperation skills, in addition to free-play time.
