Children’s Network offers infant care starting at 6 weeks of age, and our infant/toddler programs extend through the age two. An infant or toddler must first accept and trust a new adult in their world. The caring attentiveness of our Caregivers allows your child to be happy away from the intimate contact of the family. By providing an atmosphere that is physically safe and emotionally warm your child will feel secure.

Children’s Network provides a changing environment for our infants and toddlers. Activity centers that include large and small motor opportunities, language and music activities as well as sensory, buggy rides and outdoor play will fill every day. Your child's learning success is assured by simple activities that match developmental abilities and provide foundations for later, more complex skills. The transition from infants to our toddler program is full of exciting changes. Infants move from cribs, to mats, bottles to cups, two naps to one nap, and begin daily outdoor play. Our infants visit our toddler program for several days so that we can ensure a successful transition.

Children’s Network’s two year old program is carefully planned to promote good self-help skills and independence, while at the same time encouraging a sense of sharing and co-operation. At the age of two your child will begin our theme-based early childhood program which promotes age appropriate activities that stimulate language, creative movement, music, and self help skills. At the end of each week, parents are encouraged to pick up their child's activity sheets and artwork.  Communication is the key to your child enjoying a successful program.

One of the biggest changes in most two-year-olds is when they show signs of readiness for toilet training. This interest is approached with love, patience and understanding.

Children’s Network’s preschool program is designed for children three to five years of age. This concept allows child to move ahead in areas they have mastered and work more slowly on the areas of development they still need to work on.

We encourage parents to check the “Our Day” posted outside the classroom so that you can be informed of all activities.

All of our classrooms are open concept and promote choices. Each room is center based and includes a reading center, dramatic play area, manipulative center, art center, block center and computer learning lab. Zoo-phonics, our themed based phonics curriculum, Math Their Way, and handwriting readiness promote a strong foundation by preparing the early childhood student for success in kindergarten and beyond. The hands on activities keep children actively involved as they learn to recognize letters, explore beginning sounds, understand number concepts and develop a positive character traits. Children’s Network offers at no extra charge to our parents a weekly music and Spanish program.

Children’s Network’s school-age program offers care for children Kindergarten age through 12 years. This program provides before and after school care,  free transportation to and from local elementary school, as well as a full day program for all out of school days.
