PROGRAM and CURRICULUM

Responsive Care: Building trust and attachment through consistent, loving interactions, cuddles, and frequent eye contact from our dedicated, native Spanish-speaking teachers.

Spanish Language Immersion: Teachers speak to infants almost exclusively in Spanish, using songs, simple phrases, and naming objects during all routines (feeding, diapering, playing) to naturally build auditory language foundation.

Sensory & Motor Development: Daily, intentional activities such as Tummy Time to build core strength, gentle movements, and sensory exploration with age-appropriate toys and materials (high-contrast colors, soft textures, gentle music).

Communication: Daily reports detail feeding, sleeping, and diaper changes, ensuring open communication and continuity of care between school and home.

Language Acquisition: Vocabulary expands rapidly through interactive stories, fingerplays, and Spanish songs related to weekly themes (e.g., animals, colors, seasons). Spanish remains the primary language of instruction.

Developing Independence: Encouraging self-help skills like feeding themselves, hand-washing, and early toilet-readiness with patient guidance.

Social & Emotional Growth: Toddlers learn fundamental social skills like sharing, taking turns, and expressing feelings using simple Spanish phrases (e.g., “Mi turno,” “Gracias”), reducing frustration and building empathy.

Learning Through Exploration: Utilizing a play-based curriculum (often based on the Creative Curriculum or similar models) where children engage with learning centers like blocks, dramatic play, and art to develop fine and gross motor skills.
