Infant Room

The foundation of our education and learning philosophy is that each child is an independent thinker and naturally gravitates towards areas of interest. Trained early childhood education teachers are aware of these patterns displayed by the children in specific learning categories and will foster those interests.

Since children are receptive and curious, it is the Montessori philosophy that embraces that independent thinker and allows them to make choices on their own while the teacher, who is trained to spot those choices, enables further advancement of specific interests. We believe that a Montessori education provides students of all ages with information in a way they can understand it and enjoy, where learning can be fun and tailored to each child’s unique learning style.

We have designed a classroom to facilitate and foster the advancement of those specific interests, whether they are: language, sensorial, gross motor development, music and more. Toys, games and learning exercises make the transition seamless from mere “playing” to actionable learning.

Program Objectives

Our Infant Community offers a program that allows your infant to experience the joy of learning while preserving the spontaneity, initiative, and curiosity inherent in them. Each child is treated as an individual and allowed to develop at their own pace while being supported and encouraged to grow in the areas of independence. Our Infant Room also understands the deep emotional needs of infants and provides a loving and nurturing environment where they can thrive.

We are proud to have a diverse group of children from various cultural backgrounds and teach each child to respect their cultural background.

The Infant Community activities offer both quiet and active times throughout the day. Infants engage in both free play and teacher-guided activities. The materials and activities we provide are designed to develop each child intellectually, physically, socially and emotionally. Activities include holding/touching, making eye contact and communicating with babies as much as possible; talking and singing to babies; tummy-time as a time to encourage infants to achieve mastery of their bodies through self-initiated motor behavior such as rolling and sitting. Older infants will be encouraged to feed themselves and encouraged in their development of self-help skills; encourage and support each older infant’s developmental achievements such as pulling up self, walking and climbing; listening and responding to infants as they begin using language.

Our experienced caregivers will help you and your children make the transition to child care by providing personal attention to your infant’s needs. Your baby’s schedule and feeding habits will be respected. Each child receives a daily report via PreciouStatus (an instant update app/parent communication email), so you will know what your baby did during the day, and you will also receive photos and videos of your baby throughout the week.
