In order to meet the needs of infants, routine and relationships are essential for providing predictability. Teachers and parents work closely together before infants enter the classroom to establish schedules for feedings, diaper changes, naps, and playtime. This approach ensures that each infant receives individualized attention and stays on schedule. Daily activities are tailored to each infant’s unique pattern of eating, playing, and sleeping. Although routines may vary slightly between home and the classroom due to group dynamics, our teachers maintain close communication with parents to establish and maintain each child’s daily rhythm. Infants are naturally curious and eager to explore and develop new skills. Our teaching staff fosters this innate curiosity by providing a nurturing environment with developmentally appropriate materials and experiences that engage all of their senses. Through this approach, infants gain knowledge about the world around them that will serve as a foundation for future learning. Our curriculum is based on the Massachusetts Early Learning Guidelines for Infants and Toddlers, and infants are assessed every three months according to these standards. At our facility, we prioritize providing ample opportunity for tummy time and floor time to help our infants develop self-assurance and physical abilities under the attentive guidance and supervision of our trained teachers. We encourage exploration, which fosters creativity, self-motivation, and an early curiosity for learning. Daily classroom activities include singing, reading, talking, and playing, and we incorporate Spanish Language and American Sign Language to facilitate communication between infants and teachers. We understand that each infant develops at their own pace, and our teachers are committed to supporting this natural process.

What Makes Us the Best Choice?

Outdoor Play

Children can enjoy outdoor playtime in a large, fenced-in yard with a variety of outdoor toys. Additionally, walks around the neighborhood in a stroller or wagon are taken.

Age-Appropriate Curriculum

We offer a comprehensive, research-based, age-appropriate, learn-through-guided play bilingual curriculum that is taught daily. Our lesson plans and daily activities for the children cover cognitive, language, physical, social-emotional, and adaptive/self-care learning domains.

Open When You Need Us!
