Infants, Toddlers, and Twos Infants -Each child is an individual, and has their individual schedule.  In our infant room, we support that individuality.  Our infants are encouraged to develop as they are ready and our teachers are there for guidance and encouragement. Consistent care supports your child's need to feel secure and safe, and the opportunity to bond with their caregiver.  A stimulating curriculum, that is developmentally appropriate for your baby is provided daily, including outdoor time, music, movement, sensory exploration, and language.  Our 1:4 ratio provides each child individual time with their teacher. Toddlerhood - a period of transition.  This crucial period in your child's life is met by a sensitive and patient teacher.  This is a period of "body awareness" and growth.  Simple large motor movements are mastered by repetition.  Your child's teacher understands this, and knows that each child needs to be independent but is there as a support whenever needed.  Helping your child become an individual with a personality of their own is a major goal in this room.  Each child must build their self-esteem by building on their successes.  Our ratio of 1:5 ensures your child will have the support necessary at this crutial age. Two Year Old - This classroom provides a language-rich environment to support the rapid growth of language of the two year old, through storytelling, fingerplays, puppets and dramatic play.  Our 1:6 ratio in this classroom ensures your child is not competing for teacher attention.  The teacher is there to encourage social interaction and provide opportunities for independence and building self-esteem.
