Infant Program (6 weeks to 12 months)
Age appropriate activities promote cognitive and social development in a warm, nurturing environment. You are looking for a safe, secure, "home away from home" where your child can learn, play and grow. We have designed a nurturing, creative world for infants to help their minds and bodies develop. Watch your infant take the first steps toward a bright future when sharing his or her early developmental experiences with All About Kids School.
Infants are unique and have their own patterns for play, feeding and sleeping. We use these patterns as our guide to introduce daily activities that will prepare your infant for life. Our highly trained teachers and staff offer a nurturing and creative environment for infants to grow and learn. We are committed to making this first transition away from home easy and natural for you and your baby. Developed for our youngest learners, the infants curriculum provides the foundation that can develop the children of today into the leaders of tomorrow.

Toddler Program (12 months to 2 years)
Our program offers a balance of nurturing, playtime, and learning throughout the day. It is a whole new world when babies take to their feet. They walk, they talk, and they begin to develop relationships with each other. Your toddler has so many things he or she wants to see and do, and we'll be there to guide your child every step of the way.
Toddlers learn through sensory experiences that enhance their cognitive, language, motor and social skills. They turn ideas into words and phrases to better express themselves, and practice the value of sharing and cooperating through group play. Children at this stage start to develop friendships and gain confidence as they use their words and thoughts to interact with others. It is important for children to express themselves creatively, and encourage all children to develop their unique skills and interests.
Program Features:
> Daily whole group instruction promotes social skill development
> Balance of nurturing, playtime and learning throughout the day
> Monthly thematic units that provide a variety of daily activities and experiences
> Development of confidence, self-esteem and a love of learning
> Learning areas focused on dramatic play, creative arts, language and sensory exploration
> Regular communication between teachers and parents about your child's day
