Encouraging Exploration

In our 1-Year-Old Program, we focus on nurturing your child’s early developmental milestones in a warm and engaging environment. At this age, children are beginning to explore their world through movement and sensory experiences. Our program encourages growth in areas such as motor skills, language development, social interactions, and cognitive abilities. We offer a variety of activities designed to stimulate these areas, including interactive play, storytime, and hands-on learning. Our center features a safe and fun playground that children enjoy twice daily, providing ample opportunities for physical development and social engagement. Additionally, we understand the importance of rest for young learners, so we ensure a cozy and quiet nap time once a day. Our dedicated educators are committed to fostering a supportive and nurturing atmosphere where your child can thrive.
