Supporting Developmental Milestones
As your little bear cub grows, our infant program is designed to support their developmental milestones. At Little Bears Day Care, we understand the importance of nurturing their overall development, including infant development, motor skill development, and cognitive development. Our experienced caregivers provide a range of activities and experiences that encourage your little ones to explore, learn, and grow.
Promoting Motor Skill Development
In our program, we prioritize motor skill development to help your little ones gain control over their bodies and build strength. Our caregivers create a safe and interactive environment where infants can engage in activities that promote reaching, grasping, and standing. Through guided play and sensory experiences, we facilitate their physical development and support their motor skills.
Encouraging Cognitive Development
Cognitive development is a crucial part of your child’s early years. At Little Bears Day Care, we foster cognitive development through exposure to a variety of stimuli and experiences. We encourage infants to explore their surroundings, stimulating their curiosity and fostering a love for learning. With age-appropriate toys, sensory play, and interactive activities, we create opportunities for infants to engage their senses, develop problem-solving skills, and form connections with the world.
“The first year of a child’s life is a critical period for their overall development. At Little Bears Day Care, we provide a stimulating environment that supports infants’ motor skill development and cognitive growth. Our caregivers are dedicated to nurturing their curiosity, fostering their abilities, and providing a solid foundation for future learning.”– Melissa Swanlund, Owner and Educator at Little Bears Day Care
Through our program, we strive to create a nurturing space where infants can reach important milestones and build a strong foundation for their future growth. Our caregivers are trained in understanding and supporting infant development, ensuring that each little bear cub receives the individual attention and care they need to thrive.
Next, we’ll explore how our personalized care sets Little Bears Day Care apart and accommodates the unique needs of every child.
Personalized Care for Every Child
At Little Bears Day Care, we understand that each child is unique and has individual needs. That’s why we are committed to providing personalized care that takes into consideration dietary requirements and sleep schedules. Our top priority is to create a nurturing environment that supports your child’s health and well-being.
When it comes to dietary requirements, we work closely with parents to ensure that your child’s meals and snacks are tailored to their specific needs. Whether your child requires a special diet due to allergies, intolerances, or cultural preferences, our experienced staff will ensure that their meals are not only safe but also delicious and nutritious.
“Little Bears Day Care has been a blessing for my family. My daughter has strict dietary requirements, and they have gone above and beyond to accommodate her needs. I can trust that she is getting the right food at every meal.”
– Sarah Thompson, Parent
Sleep is crucial for a child’s overall well-being and development. We understand that every child has their own sleep schedule, and our caregivers work closely with you to create a consistent routine that aligns with your child’s individual needs. By following their established sleep patterns, we ensure that your child gets the rest they need to thrive during their time at our daycare.
Furthermore, personalized care extends beyond dietary requirements and sleep schedules. Our caregivers take the time to understand each child’s personality, interests, and developmental milestones. This enables us to provide tailored activities and attention that promote their growth and happiness in a meaningful way.

The Importance of a Key Person
At Little Bears Day Care, we understand that a child’s development is influenced by their home environment and preschool experiences. That’s why we assign each child a key person who acts as a bridge between these two important facets of their life. The key person plays a crucial role in supporting your child’s growth and ensuring they feel safe and supported in their new surroundings.
The key person at Little Bears Day Care is responsible for providing personalized care and attention to your child’s unique needs. They establish a deep connection and build a trusting relationship with your child, offering comfort and reassurance during their time at our preschool.
One of the key person’s primary responsibilities is to provide feedback after each session. They communicate with you, the parents, about your child’s activities, progress, and any challenges they may be facing. This open line of communication allows us to work collaboratively to meet your child’s needs and ensure their well-being.
Research has shown that a strong relationship with a key person can positively impact a child’s social, emotional, and cognitive development. The key person observes and understands your child’s interests, preferences, and learning styles, tailoring activities and experiences to stimulate their curiosity and foster their individual strengths.
“The key person approach creates a secure base for young children, providing a sense of continuity and enabling them to thrive and explore the world around them.” – Dr. J. Stevenson, Child Development Expert
The role of the key person extends beyond the preschool setting. They collaborate with parents to understand and incorporate the child’s home routines, values, and cultural background into their daily experiences. By linking the home environment with the preschool environment, we create a seamless transition and a holistic approach to your child’s development.
By having a dedicated key person, your child will feel supported, cherished, and valued. This consistent and reliable relationship forms the foundation for their social and emotional growth, helping them develop resilience, self-confidence, and a positive attitude towards learning.
A Range of Activities to Encourage Learning
Little Bears Day Care offers a wide range of activities designed to promote play-based learning and encourage children’s growth. We believe that learning through play is a fundamental aspect of a child’s development, allowing them to explore, experiment, and discover the world around them in a fun and engaging way.
Our carefully chosen activities cater to the different interests and abilities of our little bear cubs. Whether it’s engaging in imaginative play or solving puzzles, each activity is designed to stimulate curiosity, foster creativity, and promote cognitive development.
One of the highlights of our program is outdoor play. We understand the importance of connecting with nature and the benefits it brings to a child’s overall well-being. Our outdoor play spaces provide opportunities for children to run, jump, climb, and explore the natural environment. From digging in the sandbox to splashing in water play areas, outdoor play allows children to develop gross motor skills, build resilience, and enhance their sensory experiences.
In addition to our regular activities, we organize school visits to further enrich our children’s learning experiences. These visits allow them to explore new environments, interact with different educational settings, and learn from experts in various fields.
“Children learn best through play. It allows them to be actively involved in their learning, develop problem-solving skills, and foster their social and emotional growth.”
– Sarah Wilson, Preschool Teacher
Sample Activities:
- Constructive play with building blocks and puzzles
- Exploration and discovery with sensory bins
- Dramatic play and role-playing activities
- Art and craft projects to encourage creativity
- Music and movement sessions for sensory integration
At Little Bears Day Care, we also invite special visitors, such as theater groups and musicians, to expose our children to different art forms and enhance their learning experiences. These interactions empower children to explore their interests, develop their talents, and broaden their horizons.
Through our play-based learning approach, outdoor play, and school visits, we strive to create a learning environment that fosters curiosity, imagination, and a love for lifelong learning.
