Infant Program

infant program

Overview

Infancy is a wondrous period of growth and exploration. Our infant programs focus on building meaningful relationships with our families. By recognizing and acknowledging the needs of each individual child, infants feel secure and safe in our environment, creating a strong foundation to support his or her rapidly developing; social, emotional, cognitive and physical growth. A schedule is posted for infant room activities, which we use as a guide throughout the day, however we respect that infants often have their own schedules. Willowbrae Academy curriculum has three unique programs. Our Young Scholars program is based on three key learning areas: literacy, mathematics, and science. Infants are exposed to activities in these areas that will encourage; self-expression, listening, exploration & discovery, identification & recognition, and problem solving. Willowbrae’s BodyBreak KID FIT focuses on activity and education. We provide physical activities and healthy lifestyle education while children are in our care. Our Willowbrae Creative Kids includes: visual arts, dramatic play, music, dance & creative movement and culture & heritage. Infants are exposed to developmentally appropriate activities in these key areas to help support social, emotional and cognitive growth.

Willowbrae Parent

The staff have been truly wonderful to us over the last 2 1/2 years and have cared for our child with all their hearts. Every teacher we have interacted with is invested and truly enjoys being there with the kids each day. Never once have I walked in and had her teachers in bad moods or uninterested. They are professional and have always been engaged and supportive of both myself and my child during her journey. I have always felt that my child is safe, well cared for and her learning is a priority. The meals at Willowbrae are always healthy, cooked daily and enjoyed by the children. I can rest assured that she is eating very well and getting in lots of outdoor play time keeping her healthy and active. The environment is calm and the children are busy and happy. We highly recommend Willowbrae Academy

Willowbrae is a wonderful daycare with thoughtful caring staff and beautiful facilities. My children's days were full of fun and educational activities that prepared them well for school. I'm so happy to have found a daycare where I felt so comfortable leaving my children each day.

Krista Z

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff for such a positive experience for Jenna, especially Miss Shirley. I truly feel this was the best decision we made to prepare her for school. I have no worries now. Thanks for running such a great Pre-School program. Everyone will be missed.

Krista H

My daughter loved her time at Willowbrae and her baby sister may be coming in a few years!
