Our Programs
At Hamilton Heights Child Development Centers, we offer a comprehensive range of programs designed to support children’s growth from infancy through school age. Our play-based, child-centered approach ensures that each child learns and develops in a nurturing and engaging environment.
Infant Program
(6 weeks – 18 months)
Our infant program focuses on building strong, nurturing relationships between caregivers and infants, fostering a sense of safety and security. Caregivers support each child’s individual milestones and provide hands-on sensory experiences that encourage growth and learning.
Toddler Program
(18 months – 3 years)
In our toddler program, we nurture each child’s individual growth and encourage new discoveries. Toddlers learn self-help skills, build language, and begin to share, follow directions, and learn from others. Daily activities are designed to engage their natural curiosity and promote exploration.
Preschool Program
(3 – 4 years)
Our preschool program focuses on the holistic development of children—physical, intellectual, social, and emotional. The child-centered curriculum is based on the actual interests of the children, with daily activities including large group interactions, small group work, and individual choice time. Classrooms are set up in learning centers such as blocks, dramatic play, art, library, discovery, sand and water, music, and movement. Outdoor play is an integral part of the daily routine.
Pre-Kindergarten Program
(4 – 5 years)
Designed for children preparing to enter kindergarten, our Pre-K program emphasizes emotional, social, and academic readiness. Teachers create lesson plans based on children’s interests, incorporating large group interactions, small group activities, and individual choice time. Learning centers include building, dramatic play, art, library, discovery, sand and water, music, and movement. Daily outdoor exploration is encouraged.
School Age Program
(5 – 12 years)
Our school-age program is available in select locations and offers before and after school care during the academic year, providing a variety of relaxing and recreational activities, snacks, and homework assistance. We also offer bus transportation to and from designated schools. During the summer, we provide a full-day, action-packed program with activities and clubs based on children’s interests, including cooking, woodworking, science, art, math, dramatic play, and sports. Weekly field trips are also part of the summer experience.
