Our Programs
Our Infant Program
Teachers will engage the infants in various activities that aid in their physical development
such as tummy time, sitting on their own, crawling, pulling themselves up and eventually walking.
The infants are allowed to play freely with the various materials in the room including soft blocks,
sorting/stacking toys, musical toys and other small and large muscle materials.
Teachers will spend time with the infants rocking, cuddling, talking to, reading to, singing to, etc.
Infants will be fed, changed and napped according to their own individual schedule.
Sign language will be introduced to infants as a form of communicating their needs.
As the weather permits, infants will be taken outdoors to ensure fresh air and further learning opportunities.

Skill Building
As the infants grow and begin to be more mobile in the exploration of their environment, teachers will continue to introduce them to developmentally appropriate large muscle activities, arts and crafts and other self-help skills that will ease their transition into the toddler room.
What is Montessori?
The Montessori philosophy is built upon the idea that children develop and think differently than adults, that they are not merely "adults in small bodies." Dr. Montessori advocated for children's rights and believed that children need guidance to develop themselves into successful adults.
Meet the Infant Teachers
The goal of our infant teachers is to encourage each baby to explore their environment safely as they grow. Using the Montessori philosophy, they will interact with each baby through word and touch to encourage them to become more and more involved in their surroundings.

Skills We Develop
Baby Sign Language
Our staff are trained using The Baby Signs program and will be introduced to your infant to help them communicate their needs. Learn more about baby sign language here.
Sensory Play
Your child will have the opportunity to explore with various sensory materials throughout the
classroom along with planned sensory activities throughout each month. All activities are geared towards your
child’s age and development.
Self-Feeding
When your child is showing signs of readiness with food, we will communicate with you and develop a plan to introduce table foods and snacks to encourage your child’s self help skills along with other important developmental milestones such as improving their pincer grasp which eventually will help them to hold a pencil and write!
