Infants Home / Programs / Infants It’s Not Just Play, It’s Development Infants Toddlers Beginners (2-3 yrs) Intermediates (3-4 yrs) Pre-K Where Every Milestone Begins The earliest months of life are among the most formative, and our Infant program is designed to honor every stage of that development. In a warm, nurturing environment, our instructional experts provide the attentive, responsive care that builds the foundation for lifelong learning. Through close interaction and research-based practices, teachers support each baby’s cognitive, social, and physical growth. Our Baby Sign Language program gives infants the tools to communicate their needs before speech emerges, nurturing their earliest sense of agency and self. From grasping toys to recognizing familiar faces, every moment in our Infant classroom is an opportunity for discovery. Schedule a Tour Students Will Enjoy: Attentive, responsive care from warm and nurturing teachers Sensory-rich materials designed to spark curiosity and exploration Individualized feeding and napping schedules tailored to each baby’s needs Purposeful tummy time to strengthen the muscles essential for crawling and sitting Links to Learning in our Infant Classroom: Language & Literacy Language development is fundamental, and it begins long before a child speaks their first word. In our Links to Learning Infant classroom, teachers create a language-rich environment through intentional talking, reading, and singing throughout the day. By narrating what babies see, do, and feel, our teachers help them begin to recognize sounds and build early comprehension. Baby Sign Language is introduced as a bridge between understanding and expression, giving infants the ability to communicate their needs and feelings before spoken language emerges. Mathematical Thinking Mathematics is rooted in curiosity, and infants begin exploring its foundations from their very first days. In our Links to Learning experiences, babies discover essential concepts of space, size, and cause and effect through guided, purposeful play. When a baby drops a toy and watches it fall, they are building an intuitive understanding of height, distance, and consequence. These early explorations lay the bedrock for mathematical thinking, helping infants recognize that their actions shape the world around them. Social-Emotional Learning Social-emotional learning begins in the earliest weeks of life. In our Infant classroom, teachers provide the warm, consistent care that allows babies to feel safe, seen, and loved. Through gentle interactions and responsive attention, infants develop a secure sense of self and the confidence to explore, express, and eventually connect with the world around them. Our instructional experts model kindness in every interaction, building the emotional foundation that supports all future growth. Wellness Wellness is a critical component of early learning, and physical development in infancy sets the stage for every milestone that follows. Our Infant program supports gross and fine motor development through intentional movement activities and carefully selected materials. Teachers encourage babies to reach, grasp, and explore, building the strength and coordination needed for crawling, sitting, and beyond. Tummy time and hands-on play develop the muscle groups essential for healthy physical progression. Creative Expression Our Links to Learning classroom invites babies into a world rich with color, sound, and texture. Teachers offer musical instruments and sensory materials that encourage babies to explore, discover, and respond. Through hands-on engagement with varied shapes, surfaces, and sounds, infants begin to develop their own modes of self-expression. These early creative experiences lay the groundwork for imagination, communication, and a genuine sense of wonder.
