Infants learn through their five senses, using their hands to explore their surroundings. They develop trust, socialize through smiling and communicate their needs. Physical stimulation consists of sitting, crawling and touching. In our infant classrooms, our teachers provide nurturing outside your home, offering unlimited attention, love and affection for your precious baby.

Toddlers learn and grow by discovering and exploring the world around them. Our Tots program is designed to offer activities that foster learning, language development, sharing, self-help skills, and socialization in a fun atmosphere. We give you a daily report of your little one's developmental milestones and progress. With our new Tadpoles app, we email pictures and videos of your child's activities so you can check in on them during the day.

Intermediates are our older toddlers. The curriculum for our Intermediates Program includes color, shapes, numbers, and sign language. It also includes self-help skills such as potty-training. Parents and teachers work together to achieve success in this area.

Preschool is where socialization and curiosity are fostered to build self confidence and a love for learning. Children are given choices as they work in learning centers, remembering that a child's work is play and that "play is the foundation for learning." Special guests are invited to support our themes throughout the year. We welcome community helpers like our firefighters, canine police unit, search and rescue helicopter unit, veterinarian, and nutritionists, to name a few.

VCA participates in the Voluntary Pre-K (VPK) program, a free program that is funded by the State of Florida for children four years old by September 1st. Our VPK curriculum prepares children for Kindergarten and life-long learning by fostering the social-emotional, intellectual, and physical development of children with concrete skills gained through experiences with music, art, storytelling, hands-on activities, and teacher-directed lessons. Wraparound Program accommodates working parents and enforces the Reading, Math, Science, and Social Skills learned in the classroom.
