Infants Program
6 Weeks – 12 Months

A Precious Beginning
At Themba, we know every moment with an infant is precious. Our child care professionals work hard to bond with your baby and develop trust.
Safe, Secure, and Nurturing Classrooms
Our infant classrooms are designed to make babies feel safe, secure, and happy. In this nurturing environment, your baby is not only loved and cared for, but trained teachers work to stimulate cognitive, emotional, and physical development. Through simple games and reading stories, our loving teachers begin the foundational work for later learning.
Supporting Individual Growth
We emphasize your child’s development, rather than specific age, because all children grow and learn at their own pace, and in their own unique way. Activities are designed to address the individual needs and abilities of each child, in each classroom.
Curriculum-Based Learning
Our curriculum-based teaching presents learning concepts in a fun and engaging way, with a focus on reaching and mastering emerging milestones.
We Explore
Learning Through Interaction
Individual and group experiences allow children to interact both with others as well as with their environment.
In addition, classrooms have been specially designed to be comforting and stimulating, and to further maximize teacher-child interactions and learning.

Staying Connected with You
We never forget your child’s most important teacher is you.
Regular updates through innovative childcare tools such as Procare keep you informed and involved about your child’s time with us.

Benefits of Our Infants Program
Our Curriculum
Whether you’re a parent, childcare provider or teacher, you want the very best for the children in your life. But how do you know you’re giving a child the very best you can? It’s a cliché, but it’s also true—children simply do not come with instruction manuals. At Themba we have adopted the Healthy Beginnings Curriculum. For more information on the Healthy Beginnings program please click here.
Research shows the most effective way for children to acquire a second language is to integrate instruction into the standard curriculum children are already learning. Research shows that immersion education students outperform students in traditional language classes, do as well as or better than non-immersion students on standardized tests, and have a greater appreciation of cultural diversity.
