6–18 months
It begins here. A child’s early stages of development play an essential role in the growth of their character. When the mind is thoughtfully stimulated during this period, through exposure to a nourishing and well prepared environment, the brain will develop a lasting ability to learn and accomplish.
No need to worry – your infant will be nurtured in a beautiful, safe, and clean environment. From rigorous background checks for teachers, to CPR/First Aid Training for all staff, to a comprehensive school emergency plan, rest assured that we have thought of every detail to protect your child’s well-being.
Kaban’s infant classrooms have been thoughtfully designed around the needs of your child. Our Montessori environment builds on the experiences developed in the home and encourages the child towards achieving independence. Our teachers will guide and support your child through all their stages of development including the practice of gross and fine motor control as well as self help and care skills, while prioritizing social and language development.
Crawling. First words. Walking. We celebrate these milestones and maintain close communication with you to ensure we are always doing what is best for your child’s development and that you remain a vital part of their growth journey.
Our Infant classrooms are guided by highly trained teachers. The infant comprehensive training program focuses on child development from birth to age three, equipping teachers to design the best possible program for your child. For our Montessori teachers, this is more than just a job – it's a chosen career driven by their passion for infants, their dedication to Montessori education, and their steadfast commitment to children's well-being.
Infants can never have too much love, care, and affection. To ensure your child receives personalized attention, our infant program provides one adult for every three children.
Your infant is sensitive to changes in routine, so we strive to maintain consistency to help them feel safe and comfortable. Our program is offered on a five-day schedule, ensuring your child is with the same children and adults each day. Sleep and eating schedules are tailored to your child's individual needs, which are closely observed and documented to keep you informed when you return.
At 18 months, your child is ready for greater challenges. Our school provides a continuum of Montessori education and your child will have a seamless transition to the Toddler Program. Planned well in advance, this process is designed to make both you and your child comfortable. A meeting with the new teacher and brief classroom visits in advance of the move facilitate the transition.
