INFANTS
Our nursery is warm and friendly while being a safe and educational place
to begin their very first learning skills. Our nursery accommodates only
six (6) infants at a time to maximize care and cuddle time. Our teachers
and parents work as a team to set schedules and achieve such goals as food
introduction, sitting up, crawling and walking. The babies have art time,
sing songs, read stories and play with a diverse range of interactive toys.
Each infant has his/her own space for belongings. Food and bottles
are warmed up and stored in the classroom.
TODDLERS
Toddlers are the great achievers. From baby steps to potty training they
require a care team who can provide cheerleading and activities to enhance
exploration, creativity, fine and gross motor skills and the structure and
routine they crave. Each day is started with circle time where they practice
social interaction by reciting ABC’s and 123’s in an entertaining
and interactive way. Circle time also includes a variety of different activities
based on an educational curriculum recognized by the State of Maryland.
Ready, set, potty training!! Though all children potty train in their own
unique time frame our teachers work side by side with the parents to make
potty training as successful a mission as possible. We also practice independence
skills such as hand washing, cleaning up as a team and the very beginning
of dressing skills.
PRE-SCHOOL
Preschool equals independence! “I can do it by myself”. This
is a time of gaining confidence in the children’s ability to manipulate
learning through beginning writing skills, dramatic play, a hands on science
center, art, computer and other interactive activities centered around a
curriculum highlighting different skills each month. The skills focus on
a group of letters, numbers, shapes and colors. Each of our children are
challenged individually at their own level, remember it’s all about
“THEM”.
Our preschool program employs teachers with degrees in Early Childhood Education
and is recognized by the Maryland State Board of Education.
PRE-KINDERGARTEN
Ready, set learn!! Our curriculum combined with your support allows for
each child to be fully prepared for Kindergarten. Your child will grow socially,
emotionally and physically right before your eyes. Each week focuses on
a number and a specific letter, sound and formation. Each child will receive
individual support from the teachers to develop strong handwriting skills,
all of which is chronicled in a journal and sent home at the end of the
year to recognize their progression and achievements. Homework will be issued
to reinforce the skills learned that week in class. Remember, all good habits
acquired now will follow them through their educational journey.
Our pre-kindergarten program employs teachers who have their degree in Early
Childhood Education and is recognized by the Maryland State Board of Education.
