Center Programs
Infants
At the Malvern School, our Infant Program** provides a warm, nurturing environment for your child and offers countless opportunities for your child to explore through observation, movement, and use of their senses. We go beyond the traditional infant program to introduce education at an early age. Curriculum implementation considers the varying ages and schedules of each child.
First Step
The Malvern School provides First Steppers with a warm, stimulating environment and daily opportunities to explore and make choices under the guidance of a caring teacher. Our curriculum** focuses on building independence and confidence while engaging in fun, age-appropriate learning activities. Our small group provides a sense of security during this transition period from infancy to toddlerhood.
Toddlers
The Malvern School understands a Toddler’s need for autonomy, balanced with a secure routine. Therefore, our teaching staff and their creative curriculum plans** provide opportunities for toddlers to learn, explore their interests, and grow in a safe environment.
Get Set
The Malvern School Get Set Program provides children with learning activities perfect for their “get ready, get set, and go” stage. Get Set is one of our signature early childhood education programs** where children concentrate on independence and self-help skills. Our teachers provide personal attention during this exciting and active transitional period from toddlerhood to preschool.
Preschool
The Malvern School Preschool Program provides children with a culturally diverse learning environment where children develop a positive self-image, respect for others, and foster their independence and curiosity as a learner. The curriculum** is aimed at developing preschoolers’ skills in all areas. Children are introduced to math, science, and social studies through weekly themes and projects. Aesthetic expression is also encouraged through music and art activities. Our Preschool Program will prepare children for future academic success.
