The Infant Classroom

Babies in our schools begin their journey with a nurturing foundation. Each day in our infant classroom is filled with warm snuggles, happy smiles, and plenty of discovery.

6 weeks to 15 months

Providing a safe, caring, and engaging environment is essential during a baby’s first year—a period when the groundwork for lifelong learning and behavior is being formed. Our infant classrooms offer cozy, secure spaces filled with age-appropriate materials that little ones can explore freely, encouraging healthy development and inspiring growth. In partnership with families, we create a daily routine—aligned closely with your home schedule—to promote comfort, consistency, and a strong sense of security.

Thriving minds & active bodies

In our infant spaces, development unfolds through warm relationships, active movement, and purposeful play. We design nurturing environments that ignite curiosity and support your baby’s natural progression. Through discovery and interactive experiences, infants begin building foundational cognitive skills such as memory, recognition, early problem-solving, and understanding cause and effect.

We also place a strong emphasis on physical development, supporting both fine and gross motor skills. With open, uncluttered areas and no restrictive equipment, your child has the freedom to roll, crawl, stretch, grasp, and sit—strengthening the coordination, confidence, and muscle development they need to explore their world. Every routine, material, and interaction is intentionally selected to foster whole-child growth from the very start.

Connecting, communicating & exploring

Babies flourish when they experience secure relationships, meaningful interactions, and rich sensory play. Our approach centers on building strong emotional bonds—offering the warmth, stability, and affection your child needs to feel safe, valued, and ready to learn. These trusting connections form the cornerstone of healthy emotional development.

Long before spoken words emerge, infants are active communicators. In our language-rich classrooms, we support early expression through gestures, vocalizations, facial cues, and baby sign language. With daily songs, stories, and responsive conversation, we help your child develop the foundations of understanding and communication.

We further nurture your baby’s natural curiosity through multisensory experiences. Soft textures, calming sounds, gentle lights, and hands-on exploration allow infants to make sense of their surroundings—creating early connections in both brain and heart.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Heartworks Williston! My daughter has been coming here since she was about 8 months old and she is now 4 1/2. All of the teachers have been wonderful there! It is a wonderful community and we couldn't be happier.

We adore Heartworks Williston! The patience and kindness of each Preschool teacher, the thoughtful and caring curriculum, the art projects, the French classes, the social-emotional learning lessons...the community of families...I could go on and on! My son comes home happy every day. Heartworks has exceeded all of my expectations for a preschool experience for our almost-kindergartener!

We have only been at Loveworks for a few weeks but we feel very comfortable leaving our little one with Faith and Riley in the infant room. They are both warm and loving teachers, and it’s clear they care for the infants as if they were their own. We also really like Melanie, the director. She is very friendly and welcoming, and responds promptly to any questions or emails. It’s hard to leave your baby in the care of someone else, but we are really happy with Loveworks!
Erica Cox
Our 4 year old son has been attending loveworks since he was 4 months old and our new little guy started a few months ago. All of the teachers are fabulous. Fin and Josie have created a loving and fun learning preschool environment that our son is thriving in. The infant room teachers are caring and friendly, we know our baby is happy and loved!
Christine Nelson
Our family absolutely loves Heartworks. Our first child has been attending since she was 4 months old. We feel so lucky to send our kids to Heartworks. All of the teachers have been nurturing, caring, and professional. Our daughter has blossomed under their care. So excited for our second child to have the Heartworks experience too.
