Explore Our Curriculum

Petals and Pathways provides a nurturing and stimulating environment for children from infancy through 10-year-olds. They can learn, grow, and thrive. Our approach is play-based and child-centered, focusing on supporting each child's unique developmental journey. We offer a variety of engaging activities designed to foster cognitive, social, emotional, and physical growth."

Infant 0 - 12months

Focus

  • During these precious early months, our care is centered on creating a safe, comforting, and stimulating environment. We focus on building trust and security through responsive caregiving and gentle interactions. We encourage sensory exploration through soft textures, sounds, and visual stimulation. We also support early motor development with activities like tummy time and reaching for toys, and foster early communication through cooing, babbling, and exposure to language.

Activities Include

  • Gentle rocking, singing songs and rhymes, reading board books, exploring textured toys, tummy time, reaching and grasping activities, and interactive play with caregivers.

Developmental Goals

  • Developing a sense of trust and security, reaching early motor milestones (rolling, sitting), responding to sounds and voices, and early language exposure.
