The Guppies...ages 6 weeks through 13 months
Little Guppies
The infant program at Indi Kids is designed for infants as young as six weeks. The environment and curriculum have been carefully planned to ensure every child is given the best care in a safe and stimulating environment. The basic premise of our philosophy is that children learn through play experiences. Many child development studies show that infants follow a series of developmental milestones based upon each child’s individual physical and intellectual growth. Therefore, our program structure encourages our children to explore independently as well as interactively with peers and their teachers.
Infants tend to develop in stages, and yet at their own pace. We believe that it is critical to the child’s growth and development to not rush them. For younger infants we provide a variety of climbing and crawling mats, activity gyms, crawling toys, and low mirrors for tactile stimulation and exploration. Children develop a sense of accomplishment when conquering these small tasks on their own. This in turn enhances self esteem and self awareness.
The infant teachers feel that providing a safe and nurturing environment is their number one priority. We believe in fostering and encouraging independence through play experiences as well as social interactions.
