Infant Care at Hampton Cove Preschool
The goal of the Hampton Cove Preschool Infant classroom is to provide a warm and nurturing environment where infants and young toddlers can grow and develop. The classroom is child-centered and designed to stimulate creative exploration and support discovery through meaningful, real-life experiences. Adult–child interactions are essential to early brain development. Infant and young toddler teachers encourage the building of complex neural circuits that govern motor development, language, math, music, logic, emotional, and social skills by engaging in interactions with children throughout the day.
