Infant Program

infantThe infant program at the Fredrickson Early Childhood Center is licensed for six babies, three months -18 months of age. 

Our loving and nurturing Infant Teachers work closely with each family to insure that the care that their baby receives at our Center is tailored to meet their child's individual needs and the family's particular wishes.

Additionally, each infant's Daily Schedule remains flexible as each baby develops, grows and explores his/her new environment in which all of their senses and routines start to develop. 

Parents are always encouraged and invited to drop by the Infant Center at any time to share in the magical world of babies!

Toddler & Preschool Programs

For both the Toddler Program and Preschool Program a child can attend a minimum of two mornings from 9:00am-12:00pm.

The core educational program takes place from 9:00am-12:00pm.threes

Since the center is open from 7:30 - 5:30 Monday - Friday, a child's schedule can vary, depending on the needs of the family. Tuition rates are based on the number of days and hours that the child attends.

Age Requirements are as follows:

  • A child must be 18 months old to begin in the toddler program.
  • A child does not need to be potty trained to enter the toddler or preschool programs.

We also have a kindergarten transition program that offers a longer small group time and the option of adding afternoons for additional enrichment.

This group is filled with the oldest children in the center as well as those children that the parents have decided would benefit from a transition year before entering kindergarten. A child in this program can attend from 2 to 5 days per week.
