| Infants
- Our nursery is cared for by a Registered Nurse. The infant nursery has
been specially designed to create a warm and secure environment for each
infant. Babies at Little Angels have a very special place as they
explore their play area, which is full of stimulation toys - all of
which were imported from the U.S. Teachers sing songs and read stories
to encourage language acquisition, pass balls and play games to develop
motor skills, but most of all spend lots of time cuddling and talking to
babies to provide comfort. We ask parents to provide us with their
baby's schedule so the teacher can ensure consistency between home and
Little Angels. Toddler
- Young toddlers play and learn in a fun, bright and cheery environment.
Activities such as circle time are introduced to encourage verbal and
social growth. Songs, stories and finger play are incorporated into the
classroom's daily schedule.
