Our infant and toddler programs are designed to provide a warm, comforting environment where teachers are passionate about helping them develop academically and socially!

​

We recognize the importance of a close connection between caretaker and child, so we staff our classrooms accordingly.

 

In our infants and toddler classes we maintain a 1 staff member: 4 students ratio to provide adequate attention and to cultivate that connection.

This program continues the use of purposeful play activities to utilize their senses to learn more about the world around them.

​

By using real materials and trying out their ideas, children learn about sizes, shapes, colors, and they notice patterns and relationships between things.

​

Research shows that when they can manipulate and experiment with these materials and objects they will also develop ingenuity and creativity.

UCP is a Voluntary PreK provider and offers a half-day or full-day option based on the time of year (wrap-around before/after school services are also available).    

 

We offer a school year and summer VPK Program.  Voluntary PreK is a free program for all children who are 4 years old by 9/1 and will enter Kindergarten the following school year.

​

Our program is inclusive – with students with and without disabilities learning together with approximately 18 children, a certified teacher, and two assistants.
