Children’s play is designed to find purpose from the world around them through opportunities for building and constructing, relationships and movement. Children build and construct knowledge through open-ended experiences and the use of natural materials. They use blocks to test the limits of gravity.
Toddlers
Our toddler program provides a nurturing environment that supports the developmental needs of independence, movement, and opportunities to engage all senses. Toddlers develop autonomy by having the choice of materials to interact with, having responsibility for themselves whenever possible and by allowing them the opportunities for:
Self-help skills
Daily chores
Infants
The infant program provides a nurturing environment that fosters a child’s needs of attachment, movement, and opportunities to engage all senses that support developmental growth. Infants develop secure attachments by having attentive caregivers who love and nurture them.
