Our Programs
INFANTS
:
6 weeks -12 months
Classrooms: Deeshonim, Parparim, and Gamalim
Our Infant Program centers on trust, responsiveness, and exploration. We follow each child’s natural rhythm—eating and sleeping on demand—with staff respectful of family preferences. In a calm environment filled with soft music, books, and tactile experiences, infants grow through comfort, connection, and gentle discovery.
TODDLERS:
1-2 yrs
Classrooms: Tzfardim, Geerafot, Soosim, and Egooanot
In the Toddler Program, children begin asserting autonomy while still needing support. Through choice-based activities, predictable routines, and guided interactions, toddlers explore language, movement, and social skills in a safe and responsive environment. Teachers use teachable moments to support emerging independence and curiosity.
PRESCHOOL:
2- 4 yrs
Classrooms: Peelim, Dagim, Yonim, Tukim, Dubim, Nemarim, and Tzevayim
Our Preschool Program nurtures children’s creativity, inquiry, and early thinking skills through imaginative play, art, science, music, and movement. Teachers design experiences that invite children to experiment, wonder, and grow socially and intellectually with increasing independence.
PRE-K:
4 yrs by 9/1/25
Classrooms: Arayot and Kofim
In Pre-K, children engage in deeper, project-based learning. They articulate their thinking, explore name recognition, early math literacy, and creative problem solving. Guided by an emergent curriculum and aligned with early learning standards, we prepare children to transition confidently into kindergarten and beyond.
