INFANT PROGRAM

OVERVIEW

Physical development is the foundation upon which cognitive development is built, and responsive adults play a vital role in supporting this growth. Our infant program provides a safe, nurturing environment designed to support babies through their earliest stages of development, with caring teachers who work closely with families.

The infant room features mirrors, rugs, baskets filled with soft fabrics and natural materials, sensory tables, and a wide selection of books, along with age-appropriate toys that encourage exploration through the senses. To protect your baby’s health and well-being, toys and equipment are sanitized throughout the day, and the classroom follows a strict “No Shoes” policy to help reduce dirt and germs.

Communication is Very Important

As parents, you deserve to know everything that happens while your baby is in our care. We have an Infant Daily News that will tell you about your baby’s day with us. We also send home frequent photographs of your baby’s day. Regular phone calls, conferences, and emails are all part of this important communication.

Our infant room has 7 children and 2 EEC certified teachers, as well as a floating teacher that helps in all classrooms.

What Do We Do In Our Infant Room All Day?

We offer babies, comfort, hugs, smiles, positive interaction, playtime; we sing, and listen-play on the floor, we cuddle and we enjoy the time we spend with your baby!

Four Seasons Preschool Infant Curriculum Program, will guide your child through each developmental stage, including sitting up, crawling, walking, talking, as well as activities such as art projects, baby sign language, singing songs, and opportunities for exploring their world. Weather permitting teachers will take children out in our strollers to enjoy the fresh air and sunshine.

Language

Infants learn to use language to connect with their world, build relationships, and express their needs. Our infant teachers nurture these early language skills through everyday, meaningful interactions such as:

Singing lullabies and songs
Naming objects throughout the day
Engaging in daily conversations
Exploring colorful picture books

SENSORY

Touch

We introduce to a lot of different textures things that are, fuzzy, bumpy, stuffed animals, water, etc. And of course loving touches.

Sound

Sound Your baby is aware of the sounds around them. There is always calm music playing in our infant room, we talk gently to your baby, we sing or hum, we have many different musical toys, rattles and musical instruments.

Sight

Babies are always watching people who are close by and tracking bright objects as they move. We talk gently to your baby face to face so they can see our eyes, we read colorful picture books, we place your baby in front of our mirrors – they love to see themselves! And we have many different bright colorful toys.

Taste and Smell

All babies explore by putting things in their mouths. That is because taste and smell are two of the senses that help your baby learn more about their world.

PARENTS

PARENT COMMUNICATION

Each day teachers will write out a daily sheet about your child’s day. This includes details about naptimes, lunch, diaper changes, and any supplies needed. Each month teachers will write entries in your child’s very own journal. Pictures will also be added as often as possible to chronicle this fast-moving time in your child’s first year. We encourage you to update any changes or adventures at home when you receive this journal and we would love to see your photos as well! At the end of your time in the infant program this journal will be yours to keep. This journal provides a record of your child’s growth and development as teachers share stories about your child’s early years at Four Seasons PreSchool. Parent Teacher Conferences may be scheduled at your request anytime of the year and are also offered every three months as an opportunity to review your child’s progress report. Regular phone calls and emails are also an important part of this communication.

We encourage you to visit often and share your skills and talents with us. Four Seasons PreSchool is always ready to listen to parents and eager to involve them whenever possible.
