I strive to create a setting where your child is very happy and you can go to work without worry about the care of your child. Early childhood is the most critical period in human growth and development; it is the period when the foundations of academic achievement are laid. Play is the work of childhood. Through play, children seek to understand the world around them and their place within it. Through structured activities, children develop the neurological pathways necessary for cognitive, physical, social and emotional development. During these early years, learning experiences must be varied, creative and carefully planned. In addition to play based activities we will also work with your child to insure mastery of the alphabet, numbers, shapes and colors in preparation for preschool. We inspire a love of learning and encourage a significant amount of reading to develop verbal skills and puzzles to activate the math brain.

Baby Prodigy Nursery is a licensed daycare provider, CA License #384004442. We believe that a child's natural curiosity and sense of wonder are very special assets entrusted to us, and through these, we seek to impart a love of learning in every child we serve. We believe that providing a rich and attentive environment is only the beginning. For "learning through play" to be truly meaningful, we focus on helping the child become a critical observer of his or her environment, and develop problem solving skills. Our goal is to help the child become an active agent in his or her own development by encouraging each child’s natural curiosity. We encourage this process in an individualized, language-rich environment through the questions they ask, the goals they set, the information they provide, and the behavior they model.
Specific Objectives:
Personal Confidence - building in each child a sense of inherent value and self-esteem
Social Skills - helping the children learn how to form relationships of caring, trust, mutual respect, and teaching the children appropriate social behaviors
Cognitive Development-structured activities including circle time, centers, arts & crafts, music, and cooking projects
Language Development - these critical skills are gently and patiently encouraged through storytelling and singing
Toilet Training - we work with families to provide consistency as the children master this skill
