About Our Mobile Infants Program
Our Mobile Infants Program gives young children a safe and supportive place to move, explore, communicate, and grow. Teachers balance nurturing care with active, age-appropriate experiences that encourage emerging language, motor development, social-emotional growth, and independence. Predictable routines help children feel secure while Frog Street learning experiences, stories, songs, sensory play, and guided exploration turn each day into an opportunity for discovery.
- Safe spaces for crawling, cruising, walking, and active exploration
- Frog Street learning experiences adapted to emerging abilities
- Songs, stories, sign language, music, and sensory play
- Consistent routines balanced with each child's individual needs
- Daily family communication through Playground
How We Teach in Our Mobile Infants Program
- Teachers use Frog Street activities to encourage language, movement, curiosity, and social-emotional development.
- Songs, stories, gestures, and simple sign language support emerging communication.
- Floor play and guided movement strengthen balance, coordination, and motor development.
- Sensory activities allow children to investigate sounds, textures, colors, and everyday materials.
- Teachers model gentle interactions, turn-taking, and age-appropriate ways to express needs.
- Children are encouraged to explore independently while receiving the reassurance and support they need.
A Day in Our Mobile Infants Program
Children are welcomed with warm, individualized attention and time to transition into the classroom. The morning includes active exploration, songs, stories, sensory experiences, and Frog Street learning activities adapted to the children's developmental stages. Meals, diapering, rest, and care routines are thoughtfully incorporated throughout the day. Children also enjoy supervised movement and outdoor experiences when appropriate. Afternoon activities provide additional opportunities for music, language, creative discovery, and social interaction before teachers help each child transition comfortably to pickup.
Food
Nutritious meals are included in tuition. KinderKids provides breakfast, lunch, and an afternoon snack and participates in the Child and Adult Care Food Program, following USDA meal-pattern guidelines.
Diapering and potty training
Teachers provide attentive diapering care and communicate relevant updates to families. Early introductions to potty training may begin around 18 months based on each child’s development and individual needs.
