Nursery (6 weeks – 9 months)

At First Steps, our Nursery room is designed for children from 6 weeks to 9 months. Personalized feeding times and schedules help each child develop at their own pace.

Our nursery room includes age appropriate toys, books, large motor and sensory activities, sign language, songs, and tummy time with individual goals in mind. We include daily Bible stories and songs that share the love of Jesus with them throughout their day. The combination of these activities provide a Christian atmosphere that supports cognition and social development.

Research-based and child-focused HighScope Curriculum is integrated into each of our classrooms. Each of our classrooms encourages parents to be an active part of their child’s care and learning. We welcome parents to observe and interact with their child in the classroom.
