Infant/Toddler Program Highlights:

• Children are exposed to a variety of experiences. Infants six weeks to when they are developmentally ready to move the Toddler Room are on their own individualized schedule.
• Feeding and nap times are scheduled according to the parent's request. Infants that are not napping or being fed are placed in an area near or with a caregiver for age appropriate play.
• A daily report will be given to the parents, letting them know how their child ate, napped, and when he or she was changed
• In our toddler room, the children are hard at work learning important physical skills as they gain muscle control, balance, and coordination.
• We also work on language development and learning to share with others. Each new skill lets them progress to the next one, building on a foundation that leads to more complicated physical tasks, such as jumping rope, kicking a ball on the run, or turning a cartwheel.
• As children get older they receive an ample amount of uninterrupted free play to explore, individuallized time to work on and develop their Kindergarten Readiness skills, gross motor time, and much more.

Preschool Program Highlights:

• Lessons are designed to enhance problem-solving skills, improve personal interaction, and showcase each child's natural creativity.

The curriculum is aligned with the State of Ohio's learning and development standards for Social-Emotional Development, Approaches Toward Learning, Cognitive Development and General Knowledge (including Mathematics, Science and Social Studies), Language and Literacy Development, and Physical Well-Being.
