🇪🇸 The Amigos Program: Spanish Immersion & Play-Based Learning
At our "Amigos" center, we provide a safe, nurturing, and dynamic learning environment built on two core principles: Early Childhood Best Practices and Full Spanish Language and Cultural Immersion. We believe in developing the whole child—emotionally, socially, physically, and cognitively—while giving them the invaluable gift of lifelong bilingualism.

Core Focus:
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.

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.
