Infant Schedules
Our infant program strives to deliver a safe and nurturing environment for your newborn. We keep the perfect balance between the caregiver-lead learning time and the time when our babies self-discover. Here our youngest children are being taken care of with the utmost warmth and patience.
-
We believe that establishing and maintaining communication with parents is a rule number one for a good and respectful childcare provider. It’s especially important when children are so little. Every newborn is different and has his or her own unique needs. Even though our babies eat and sleep on demand, we always pay close attention to the parents’ instructions about their children’s individual schedules and needs.
-
One of the primarily priorities of our infant program is to foster the sense of trust and security in the newborns. We always make sure that their needs and desires are promptly met by our warm and caring staff. Our staff hold the babies, talk and smile to them, play with them, and comfort them by using specific ways instructed by the parents.
-
Our infant daycare program provides experiences that lead to emotional, physical, and cognitive development of our newborns. We let them play with age-appropriate and developing toys, make sure they spend some time playing on their tummies and always provide outdoor time.
-
The development of speech and language skills starts from the day your child is born. We encourage this process in every possible way. Our teachers sing, read, maintain eye contact and talk to the infants throughout the day.
Toddler/Preschool Schedules
Is it time for your child to become an independent learner. Toddlers enjoy exploring everything around them using their developing physical, intellectual and emotional abilities. We do our best to be there for them, to suggest our help when we see that they need it and to encourage their curiosity, enthusiasm and promote learning.
-
Establishing a routine and structure with toddlers as it is very important at this age. Our teachers help them to follow their daily schedule to prepare them for a preschool
-
Encouraging our children to become independent. We believe that the development of self-help skills is very important for toddlers. They feel more confident and in charge being able to do their own little tasks, like dressing up for outdoor time, cleaning up after the finish playing or using spoons
-
Establishing a language-rich environment in which our toddlers learn communication skills. We continue talking to them, singing and reading. We also start teaching them the vocabulary necessary for expressing their desires or sharing their feelings.
-
Providing developing and entertaining group activities, as well as time for self-directed play. We play with our toddlers inside of their classrooms in the environment that supports learning and outside at the onsite playground.
-
Helping to develop positive social skills. At this young age children don’t necessary play with each other, but they do like to play next to each other. They appreciate each other’s company even if they don’t interact with each other as much as older children. Our teachers pay close attention to make sure that each child has a feeling of belonging to the group.
-
Introducing some educational but very entertaining for toddlers activities, like art projects, music, sensory activities, construction and science exploration.
-
Helping development of physical abilities of our toddlers. Our teachers watch and stimulate the development of fine motor skills and gross motor skills,as well as hand-eye coordination.
-
Encouraging children’s self-esteem and confidence by always showing them respect. We ensure that their feelings and desires are valued and appreciated; yet we establish teacher authority by providing borders for them.
-
Maintaining healthy growth and development of our toddlers is just as important for us as it is important for you.
