Before and After Care Program

Infants

BeeCurious experiences are tailored to each infant's developmental stage and individual schedule. Educators observe and intentionally plan for each child's physical, social-emotional, and cognitive growth. The program immerses infants in a language-rich environment, with American Sign Language introduced through twenty core signs to support early communication, reduce frustration, and strengthen the bond between children and caregivers. Sensory exploration and daily outdoor experiences extend learning beyond the classroom.

Toddlers

The BeeCurious Curriculum supports active toddlers as they develop increased mobility and begin exploring the world around them. Children engage in hands-on learning centers - dramatic play, blocks, table toys, art, and a cozy area - with toys and props that change regularly to reflect current curriculum studies. Language development is central, with children immersed in daily communication and supported by American Sign Language using twenty core signs, plus additional signs tied to each theme of study. Music, movement, peer interactions, and group projects are woven throughout the day, with outdoor play twice daily extending curriculum experiences into well-equipped play spaces. Process-oriented art and sensory experiences encourage creativity and self-expression.

Welcome to the world, new friend! Building Blocks infant classrooms foster an environment of safety, comfort, and security in a private early childhood setting. In classrooms filled with nurturing teachers, sensory discoveries, and new friends, we help babies thrive through age-appropriate and individualized interactions. We partner with you to develop an approach that is consistent with your family’s routine to ease the transition from home to school. During waking hours, infants are offered both individual and group lessons to stimulate senses and brain development and build core skills essential to self-discovery and empathy.

Toddlers

In our toddler classrooms, children begin to acclimate to a daily rhythm of the day within a whole group setting. We follow the Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education, which views young children as individuals who are curious about their world. Our educators prioritize exposing children to a wide variety of educational opportunities that encourage self-expression, communication, logical thinking, and problem-solving. A mindset of “process over product” informs our activities and play, and keeps toddlers actively engaged and continuously interested in understanding more about themselves, their friends and family, and the world around them.
