Our Programs

Mozart's Melody: 6 weeks - 12 months

This classroom ratio is 4 Children : 1 Teacher

In our infant classrooms, we provide small class sizes as well as low teacher to student ratios. This allows for increased one-on-one interaction and ample individualized instruction within an intimate and home-like environment. Teachers strive to maintain a soothing atmosphere that recognizes each baby’s natural feeding, sleeping and play rhythms. An infant’s day consists of cuddling, rocking, circle time, tummy time, reading books, exploring age appropriate toys, singing songs, creating art, stroller walks and much more!

​Da Vinci's Den: 12 months - 18 months  

This classroom has a child to teacher ratio of 4:1

As infants move into the toddler phase, their day takes on a more uniform schedule. Feeding and napping take place at the same time for all children. Teachers model effective communication and sharing and encourage independence. A toddler’s day consists of self-selected play, circle time, singing songs, reading books, focused learning activities, art projects, sensory experiences, stroller walks, indoor gross motor room time, and outdoor playground time.

Leo's Leap: 18 months - 24 months

Our Toddler program caters to the very specific needs of children between 18 months and 2 years old. This age is full of exploration and growth in language and social skills. Toddlers are extremely curious and active learners, and our toddler teachers recognize this and tailor their classroom specifically for the adventurous nature of this age group. Each day is filled with teacher guided open play time, as the toddlers learn how to interact with one another and the materials around them.

Each day brings a new adventure as our young preschoolers learn to play cooperatively, participate in groups, and are exposed to a variety of activities!
