At Little Builders, we provide affordable daycare while ensuring high-quality care for your child's early development. We embrace the HighScope learning philosophy, a comprehensive, research-based approach to early childhood education. Our Infant Program supports the healthy development and learning of children from birth to 18 months. During this crucial stage, infants absorb everything around them—sounds, sights, textures, tastes, and smells. Our curriculum engages all their senses, fostering creativity and enhancing their cognitive abilities.
The HighScope philosophy centers around active learning, emphasizing that infants are natural explorers who learn best through hands-on experiences. Infants are encouraged to engage with their environment, explore sensory materials, and interact with caring adults to foster curiosity and problem-solving skills.
HighScope prioritizes responsive caregiving as a foundation for infant development. Trained caregivers create secure and nurturing relationships with each child, recognizing and meeting their individual needs — feeding, diapering, and comforting — in a consistent and loving manner.
The program supports infants in reaching key milestones across physical, social, emotional, and cognitive domains, with opportunities for tummy time, sensory play, and peer interaction.
A predictable, consistent daily routine gives infants a sense of security, helping them understand what to expect and promoting trust and comfort in their environment.
Caregivers engage in systematic observation and documentation of each infant's experiences and development, tailoring the curriculum to each child's unique needs and interests.
Parents are essential partners in their child's development. Regular updates, conferences, and family events foster strong communication and collaboration between families and educators.
Stringent safety measures create a secure environment for infants to explore and learn. Caregivers are trained in infant CPR and first aid.
Teachers and caregivers undergo specialized training in infant development, HighScope principles, and best practices in early childhood education.
Little Builders boasts one of the largest infant rooms in Katy — bright, filled with natural light, and stocked with colorful, developmentally appropriate toys.
The HighScope Infant Program is an evidence-based approach that prioritizes active learning, responsive caregiving, and family engagement to promote healthy development during these critical early years.
