Growing With Your Child

Infants

Infant care is about trust. We follow your baby's own rhythm for feeding, sleeping and play rather than putting them on a schedule, and we hold, talk to and sing to them throughout the day. There's plenty of tummy time, floor time and safe space to roll, sit and pull up — and you'll get a daily update on how it all went, right down to the small milestones you wouldn't want to miss.

Toddlers

This is the heart of our program. Toddlers are learning to walk, talk, share and manage very large feelings in very small bodies, all at once. We give them room to move and things to pour, stack, squish and knock over — water, sand, dough, paint — plus songs, books and words for everything. Gentle routines start here too: handwashing, cleanup, sitting together for meals. And we go outside every day the weather allows.

Preschool

Two- and three-year-olds want to do it themselves, and we let them. The day takes on more shape now — a morning gathering, a project, outdoor play, story time — while colors, counting, shapes and letters turn up naturally through play rather than drills. Children practice real independence with shoes, jackets and snacks, and start learning to use words instead of hands when something goes wrong. Potty learning happens at your child's pace, in step with what you're doing at home.

Pre-K

Our oldest children take on real responsibility: helping at snack time, leading a song, showing a younger friend how something works. Alongside letter sounds, name writing, numbers and patterns, we're building the skills that actually decide how kindergarten goes — sitting with a task, following multi-step directions, and speaking up in a group. Before the transition, we'll talk with you about where your child stands and what to expect.
