Educational Programs Baby's Space at Little Earth
By practicing daily what every baby already knows – that loving, consistent relationships, and nurturing, intentional environments develop emotionally healthy, academically successful children – the Baby’s Space model gives young children daily opportunities to engage in relationships, experience and manage emotions, and learn through exploration and play. Programming from the baby’s point of view is as much about the how as it is about the what.
Because babies and young children need a lot of consistent and predictable love and attention to build a strong social, emotional, and cognitive foundation, Baby’s Space supports teachers in responding to each stage of a child’s unique development in the specific context of their culture and life circumstances. Critical decisions about the programs, staffing, space, and family services are checked against the critical question, “How does the baby see it?”
