Infant Care Program

Supporting Every Developmental Milestone

As infants grow, our educators encourage the development of important physical skills through purposeful play and responsive interactions. Children are supported as they learn to lift their heads, roll over, sit independently, crawl, pull themselves up, and eventually take their first steps.

Our classrooms also provide opportunities for sensory discovery, creative expression, and activities that strengthen fine and gross motor skills while building confidence.

Building Early Communication Skills

Language development begins long before a child's first words. Our educators create language-rich environments by talking, reading, singing, and responding to children throughout every part of the day—from playtime and outdoor exploration to feeding and diaper changes.

To further support early communication, children are introduced to a selection of basic American Sign Language (ASL) signs. Using simple signs alongside spoken language helps infants communicate their needs before they are able to speak.

Research has shown that introducing sign language during infancy can:

• Help children express their wants and needs earlier
• Reduce frustration by improving communication
• Strengthen confidence and independence
• Foster stronger connections with parents and caregivers
• Reinforce language development through visual and physical learning
• Support the development of verbal communication skills

We encourage families to use the same signs at home, creating consistency between home and school and helping children communicate confidently in both environments.
