Our Infant Environment

Infant Development at La Petite Academy

Where your infant spends his day is just as important as what she does there. So, just like the way you decorated your baby's nursery, we've meticulously designed his Academy environment to nurture him, and stimulate exploration and growth.

Stop by the Academy and you will notice the warm, caring environment and our dedication to cleanliness and sanitation. Every infant has his own crib, and special care is taken to personalize your child's resting space with pictures of your family and stimulating décor.

Learning Through Experiences

Our infant rooms provide children with the opportunity to explore age-appropriate toys and materials. Experiences and activities are planned throughout the day and incorporate:

  • Music and Movement - musical instruments such as miniature maracas, toys that make noise and sing
  • Language Development - board books, vinyl books, picture card sets
  • Creative Arts and Exploration - mirrored walls, plexiglass learning display, photo books
  • Gross Motor Play - large climbing mats and push/pull play opportunities
  • Fine Motor and Self-Help Skills Building - stacking blocks, reaction toys
  • Book and Storytelling Center - favorite stories, puppets, soft animals
  • Quiet Play - soft animals and dolls, soft clutch balls, soft activity mats
