Our Infant Classroom

We know the first year of life can have a big influence on a child’s success in the years that follow. That’s why teachers in your child’s Infant classroom provide a loving and nurturing environment as they lay the foundation for learning. This includes literacy; communication and vocabulary skills to help your infant better express their needs; gross motor skills and sensory development; and emotional well-being.

Nurturing Active Minds, Healthy Bodies, and Happy Hearts®

Active Minds

Learning is exciting, and your infant is eager to learn with a natural curiosity that knows no bounds. Our Balanced Learning® approach provides teachers with the tools and guidance to fully support each child while paying close attention to all aspects of their development.

Language & Literacy
Language & Literacy
Throughout the day, Infant teachers use sign language and read books to your little one. They talk and sing with your child during feeding, diaper changes and playtime. These interactions provide one-to-one attention while also helping your baby begin to understand language and conversation.
Science, Engineering & Technology
Science, Engineering & Technology
Children enter the world as natural scientists, curious to observe and explore how the world works and their role in it. All the while, they’re honing their senses and developing skills like observing and problem solving.
Mathematics

While math may sound like a big topic for an infant, they’re learning about shapes as they interact with toys, they explore numbers as teachers count their toes and they use all their senses to explore.
Social Studies
