Teacher child ratio 5 to 1

- Sensory Development – touching, feeling , hearing, listening
- Play and Rest
Every moment with an infant is precious and we take advantage of that. We coo, cuddle, rock, sing and bond with your baby. Our specially designed infant care room is a place where a baby can feel safe, secure and happy. Personal cribs, and separate areas for changing and feeding, ensure clean playing, eating and sleeping spaces. Our internet monitoring cameras make it easy for you to peek in on your little one any time during the day. Through simple games like peek-a-boo, our loving teachers begin the foundational work for later learning and developing motor skills. But, we never forget that you are your child’s most important teacher, so we’ll work with you, give you daily reports, and offer tips on how to reinforce what your child learns in his/her time with us.
“God is intimately involved in children’s lives from the very beginning.” (Psalm 139:13-16)
