Welcome to our SMART EQ® Infant Program, where your child thrives in a nurturing environment fostering self-discovery and emotional awareness. Our dedicated team cultivates strong bonds with your little one, ensuring they feel secure and cherished. Together, we lay the foundation for your child's confidence and eagerness to explore and learn. We prioritize open communication, partnering with families to support your child's growth and development. Parent/therapist conferences are held biannually to discuss your child's developmental milestones.

Our SMART® curriculum prioritizes responsive daily routines and tailored experiences to foster your child's growth. These routines are not only the cornerstone of your child's day but also of their learning journey. Consistent, nurturing interactions during activities like hellos, diapering, meals, naps, and dressing build trust and facilitate experiential learning. Our dedicated teaching staff collaborates with you to maintain and enhance the schedule established during your baby's early weeks or months.

SMART EQ® Child Development Program

The SMART EQ® Child Development Program, crafted and delivered by trained Child Development Specialists and Therapists, is specifically designed for infants aged 6 months to 18 months and toddlers aged 18 months to 3 years.

For infants, our program focuses on fostering early social, cognitive, and motor skills through interactive play, sensory exploration, and nurturing interactions. We provide parents with strategies to enhance communication, promote bonding, and support their baby's overall development. Through guided activities and expert guidance, parents and caregivers learn to create a stimulating and supportive environment that encourages their infant's curiosity and growth.

For toddlers, our program emphasizes building independence, language skills, and emotional regulation. We offer age-appropriate activities that stimulate creativity, problem-solving, and social interaction. Parents receive guidance on positive discipline, effective communication, and fostering autonomy in their toddler's daily routines. Our program encourages parents to embrace their child's growing independence while providing a safe and supportive environment for exploration and learning.

With the SMART Child Development Program, parents can feel confident and empowered in nurturing their child's development during these critical early years.
