Wonderer

Your infant’s brain is in development prime time, they are starting to establish unique connections with people and objects all around them. At Little Harvard, we will read many books, learn to talk by pointing and naming objects such as ‘train’ or ‘ball’! Our naturally gifted infant educators will listen to their baby babble, and talk and make sounds in response to them. We will use sign language to communicate and express our feelings, listen to music and play with various toy instruments. Our shoe-free environment and padded floors will encourage your infant to crawl and scoot around, giving them the freedom to explore comfortably and with confidence. Your infant will make friends with other babies and teachers and, above all, receive a ton of cuddles from us.

Discoverer

A child’s attachment to teachers at this age sets an important foundation for their ability to bond and trust adults in the future. With this in mind, independence, social development and classroom involvement are the focus of this program. Your child’s toddler experience should be wholesome and engaging, building a healthy foundation for lifelong learning. In a short period of time, children quickly flourish in classroom routines making room for deepening friendships and following simple instructions.

TESTIMONIALS

What Our Families Say

Since both of us are university faculty, choosing a preschool for our daughter Chloe was a thorough and meticulous process because we know that finding the right preschool is an essential and key milestone in her future education. As parents, we sought to give her the best foundation for learning, or at least that is what we hoped for. As soon as we set foot at Little Harvard, it just felt right! From the warmth of the staff to the professionalism of management, we knew it was where Chloe needed to be.
