Infant Curriculum (6 Weeks to 15 Months)
Infants at Little Jewels include children ranging from six weeks to 15 months old. The infant care curriculum is designed to create a solid foundation for learning within a positive and loving environment. Our experienced teachers will ensure that your baby feels safe and secure in our classrooms. Infants are exposed to different art mediums such as paints, stamp pads, paint brushes, and crayons to develop their fine motor skills. Songs and books are also used daily to help promote literacy skills. Teachers will work to form trust with your child and provide interactive learning experiences and toys that will foster development. Infants also will be involved in sensory activities and the inclusion of beginning-level Spanish words into their daily learning.
