Sample programs.
Inside the four rooms
Infants
Low mats, a rocking chair and a crib of their own. Bottles and naps follow each baby's own rhythm, and the teacher writes you a note at pickup.
Twos
Dough at a low table, a basket of scarves and a play kitchen. The first long walks to the yard happen here.
Threes
Water play, sorting and circle time, with a job for everyone: watering the plants, setting the table, feeding the class fish.
Fours
Clay, beads, longer stories and counting games, and the first talks about kindergarten with each family.
What your family brings and what we provide
A change of clothes
A full change with your child's name in the tag, in a bag on their hook.
Something for rest
A blanket or a small soft toy for nap time. The cribs and cots are ours.
Meals
Breakfast, lunch and a snack are served in the room. Families of babies bring bottles and formula when they use them.
Materials
Paper, paint, dough, books and toys are ours.
