Perspective from our Families

Walking into the classroom at the end of each day to experience the social interactions between children and to talk with the teachers about our son's individual development is the best! As first time parents, we have gained so much from the experienced teachers in the infant room. We love the AMT family! - Paige and Joe P.

The teachers in the room are absolutely amazing. They truly do love the children and I have complete faith that they are caring for my child as they would care for their own children. Knowing that my son is in a safe and caring environment and that he has fun at school makes it much easier to leave for work for the day. The teachers have cared for all three of my kids, and I'm so grateful for everyone! - Laura M.

Educational Philosophy

Infants benefit from a nurturing environment where they feel secure and stimulated.

Our infant classrooms and experiences are designed with the goal of helping infants build loving relationships with responsive caregivers. Our classrooms have a small caregiver-to-child ratio so that your child receives individual attention and care.

We prioritize building partnerships with families. We recognize the importance of consistency in a child’s life, and we will keep your child on your home feeding and sleep schedule until your child transitions to the Toddler program. Constant communication allows us to best meet your baby’s changing needs. We communicate daily with families through discussions at drop off/pick up and through daily logs containing information on feedings, naps, diaper changes, and daily activities.

Daily Experiences

Daily experiences foster physical, sensory, social, emotional, and intellectual development.

Physical Care

Our teachers provide loving responsiveness to the needs of your child through feeding, diapering, and comforting. We stick to your home feeding and sleep schedule and share updates on feedings and diaper changes in our daily logs.

Sensory Stimulation

Children engage in art and explore sensory tubs and soft surfaces. Our teachers frequently take infants on walks for fresh air, natural sights, and new sounds.

Motor Skills

We encourage our babies to explore through movement, such as reaching, squeezing, releasing, crawling, and rolling. Our teachers observe children for development and respond with activities to meet their rapidly changing needs.

Social-Emotional Skills

Our teachers guide infants in building social and emotional skills through activities such as mirror play, puppet play, telephone play, and playful interaction with other infant friends.

Language Development

Our teachers support language acquisition by narrating what is happening in the child’s environment and naming people and objects with physical gestures and demonstrations. Our teachers consistently and thoughtfully respond to the infant’s verbal and nonverbal cues. We sing songs, tell stories, and teach baby sign language, which research has shown increases the rate of verbal development and strengthens the child and caregiver bonds.
