Infant Program
The AmeriMont Academy infant program is staffed with loving, caring quality staff whose main focus is the child’s developmental and social growth. This is achieved through following our philosophy, the Montessori Method, building strong connections and relationships with children and families. With these core methods put into place, we are proud to offer a developmentally rewarding and nurturing environment. With state of the art safety monitoring, our program provides a safe, clean, and loving environment for your little ones to flourish.
Our Advantages:
- Class ratio – 4:1 child to teacher ratio at all times for children aged 6 weeks to 2 years old
- Webcam – The infant rooms are equipped with secure cameras for parents to view, including crib cam views for our youngest students, at no additional cost.
- Sandbox – Teachers use the app Sandbox to communicate with parents throughout the day. Sandbox documents diaper changes, meals, naps, photos and important events.
- Amenities – Our infant rooms are equipped with several appliances to help care for your little ones. The rooms come equipped with wipes, microwaves, and refrigerators.
- Large play yard – Our campuses offer a separate area specifically designed with infant appropriate equipment and toys.
- Cleanliness – Each student is assigned their own set of toys that are sanitized throughout the day, and all fabric toys and napping lines are washed daily.
- No Shoes Policy – Our staff in the infant room where children are crawling must wear socks/booties to help prevent the spreading of germs. Guests who enter the infant room with crawlers must also wear booties.
