About Us

Boundless Energy, Limitless Patience

Unlike many child care centers, we are committed to working and communicating with parents. By partnering with you, we give your child exactly what she needs to become a successful lifetime learner. We like a good, honest, old-fashioned, face-to-face conversation and follow-up.

Of course, we keep our parents up-to-date with family communication areas in each classroom, regular newsletters and email, progress reports, special events and more. But there is no substitute for a good relationship between yourself, your child's teacher and the Academy Director. We hope you'll feel comfortable discussing any parenting issue with us, and we'll certainly do our part to let you know exactly how things are going with your child. Together, we'll keep the lines of communication open. And, together, we'll help your child get off to a great start in life.

Love for Babies, Love for Teaching

At TBA our infant teachers love babies. While that's important, its not nearly enough. Here, infant teachers have many important responsibilities. They nurture, give care maintain a safe environment and engage your baby.

They work to guide your baby into the wonderful world of language, by using sounds, songs, gestures and words. And they're constantly focused on finding ways to introduce new learning opportunities and extend new skills.

It's vitally important for the teacher to understand your baby's needs and how to create a positive bond with him. An infant who receives highly responsive care is able to learn more - about the world, about others and about himself. Babies who receive responsive care are less likely to get in trouble, get hurt or experience extreme fraustration.

Responsive care doesn't mean merely responding to a child's need, but responding to signs of stress in a child's behavior and then applying appropriate strategies and activities. We train our infant teachers to recognize those signs and to appropriately respond to your baby in ways that she needs most.
