Foundations: Babies 0 - up to 16 months

Foundations classes offer a sensory-rich yet caring and gentle environment, where infants and young toddlers can explore and react to new sounds, sensations, objects, and movements. Our classes provide them with a stimulating setting to explore sensory input, and to strengthen developing motor skills with a sense of security, comfort, and confidence.

Unit themes change montly, and your child can never repeat the same unit as they grow through our curriculum. Growth continues and deepens as you enjoy ongoing developmentally appropriate activties with your baby. Classes are taught exclusively by licensced and accredited Kindermusik intructors, skilled in early childhood education.

FAQ: Should my new walker/older baby take Foundations or Toddler level classes? Toddler level classes are best enjoyed by mobile babies who have dropped their morning nap, who can respond verbally or nonverbally to simple one or two-step directions, and who are sturdy enough walkers that an accidental bump with an older and faster toddler would not likely injure them. This is why we typically recommend beginning Level 1-2 around 15-16 months. Questions? Please reach out to us!
