The creative curriculum
Infants
Our Infant Curriculum is about creating an enriching, nurturing environment where infants can explore, learn, and develop across various domains—physical, cognitive, emotional, and social—through play, sensory experiences, caregiver interaction, and a safe, predictable routine. The approach is centered around supporting babies' natural curiosity and developmental needs.

The focus in this curriculum is on providing rich, hands-on, and play-based learning experiences that foster growth across these domains. Since toddlers are still learning to navigate the world around them, the curriculum is often structured with strategic methods for their development.
