Infant Center
The Growing Garden Infant Center provides nurturing, stimulating care and is designed to promote each child’s stage of development. We offer full days in our Infant Center (9am-3pm) with the option of extended care. The school is open from 7:45am-5:30pm.
Our Infant Center has excellent teacher/student ratios, so that your little one gets lots of attention. The loving & educated staff plays with, hugs and comforts, feeds, stimulates and meets the needs of your child. They are well trained in infant care and they plan, implement, and evaluate the classroom curriculum so your child receives the best opportunities for high quality development and education. The infant curriculum is designed to encourage confidence and experience cooperative relationships with both peers and adults, all in an atmosphere of inspiration and growth filled with joy, laughter, traditional Jewish values, and developmental excellence.
We encourage children to use their senses to investigate, explore through hands-on experience, and search for answers to satisfy their curiosity. We supply a variety of open-ended activities and materials so that children can learn in their own way and at their own pace. The program supports the development of social, academic, emotional, physical, and spiritual growth.
Our classrooms are our “third teachers.” Everything in them provides an opportunity for nurture and growth. They are large, bright, warm, and natural. The Infant Center is equipped to meet the daily needs of young children including cribs, changing and eating areas, a place for quiet time, and age-appropriate toys for fine and gross motor play.
Our Infant Center is a warm loving environment, with your baby in mind, a second home!
