Infants
We've designed a wonderful world to foster the daily development of infant minds and bodies. More than just a day care, your little one starts his or her learning journey with us and we'll work with you to make the transition a smooth and happy time, creating a strong bond and a setting that feels like family.
Inside Your Infant's day
Each day your child will be discovering things using all five senses, copying simple actions of the people around them, experimenting with toy instruments, exploring textures, colors, and learning a variety of words and sounds through playing with other children.
