Diki Shining Star Childcare Center Programs
Infant(Ages: 3-15 months)
Our Infant Program lays a strong foundation for growth by nurturing each child’s unique development through bonds, sensory exploration, and playful learning in a safe environment. With a focus on key developmental areas, infants engage in activities that promote fine motor skills—like clapping to music, picking up finger foods, and grasping toys, which help build hand-eye coordination and dexterity. Language skills are encouraged through sound processing, sign language, and expression, reducing frustration and enhancing early communication. Movement and mobility grow as infants progress from cruising to taking first steps, strengthening their bodies from head to toe. Social and emotional skills are fostered through positive interactions, building trust and laying the groundwork for healthy relationships. Finally, cognitive skills develop as infants explore concepts like object permanence and early problem-solving through play.
