Our Infant Program

When faced with the task of entrusting your precious little one to childcare, particularly if you are a new parent, the decision can be quite daunting. At Sandy Hollow’s Precious Memories Preschool, we understand the importance of this transition for both you and your child. Our foremost objective is to create a nurturing, secure, and welcoming environment where your child can flourish and reach their full potential. We aim to foster a setting that instills confidence and support in both parents and children alike.

In our infant program, we embrace a philosophy and goal that revolves around offering all the comforts of home while facilitating growth and development through age-appropriate activities. Our well-trained, responsible, and mature staff provide infants with an abundance of tender care. Throughout the day, they engage in activities such as singing, storytelling, and ample floor time with their little friends and caregivers.

In our youngest classrooms, we take great care to follow each infant’s individual schedule, striving to maintain consistency with their routines at home. As this first year of their life marks a crucial period of growth and change, effective communication between you and your child’s teacher is paramount. We encourage open dialogue and welcome parents to interact with our staff during drop-off and pick-up times. Additionally, our open-door policy means you can reach out to us anytime. In Infant 1-4 classrooms, infants receive ample tender loving care, along with opportunities for floor play, singing, storytelling, and one-on-one teacher time. Your baby will forge new friendships, grow, and learn in a nurturing and secure environment.

As children continue to grow and develop, they progress through our program, advancing to Pre-Toddler classrooms. During this stage, we introduce a daily routine with snack breaks, midday lunch, and afternoon naps. Children will delight in dance, movement, and beginning art projects, fostering various skills and self-expression. Each day’s curriculum includes circle time, dramatic play, and outdoor activities, all emphasizing kindness and empathy as they build social skills and lasting friendships.

At Precious Memories Preschool of Sandy Hollow, we pride ourselves on our ability to customize our program to cater to the unique needs of each child. Our teachers adapt to your child’s daily schedule, and you will receive a “Daily Reflection” at the end of each day, providing you with valuable insights into their experiences and activities.
