Comprehensive Childcare and Education Programs at Little Newtons
Tailored Programs from Infant Care to Summer Camp
We provide developmentally and age-appropriate education to support each child at their level through our ages and stages approach. Our programs use our innovative early education curriculum to optimize each child’s development through 10- to 15-minute lessons. Some of the subjects we teach include literacy, language (Spanish, Mandarin, and American Sign Language), creative arts and music, math and science, and encyclopedic knowledge.
We have a wide range of programs available, from infant care to summer camp, designed to support every stage of early childhood development.
Age-Specific Programs Designed for Growth
Infant Care – Safe, Supportive Early Growth
We provide infant care for babies from 6 weeks to 18 months, offering individualized care in a safe and supportive environment that promotes early growth and development. Our infant caregivers support babies in reaching important developmental milestones while nurturing healthy brain development. Through this focus, we set infants up for a lifelong love of learning and academic success with better problem-solving, increased literacy, and higher test scores.
Toddler Care – Building Independence and Social Skills
Toddlers crave constant stimulation, which we happily support by engaging them in age-appropriate activities. Our Little Newtons toddlers, aged 18-36 months, thrive thanks to activities that promote their social, physical, cognitive, and emotional development. Our learning-based toddler program teaches independence through learning essential skills, such as getting dressed and eating food with utensils.
Daycare Services – Learning Through Play and Exploration
At Little Newtons, we provide exceptional daycare services for Chicago families who need quality care coupled with educational enrichment. Our nurturing environment ensures that children of all ages thrive through engaging, structured play and exploration, all while forming social connections with their peers.
Preschool – Literacy, Math, and Social Skills
Unlike other early childhood education centers that use a child-centered approach, Little Newtons applies a teacher-centered focus that emphasizes education. We introduce early learning fundamentals, including literacy, math, and social skills, for preschool-age children from 3 to 4 years old. When your preschooler attends the Little Newtons preschool program, they receive unique benefits, such as better problem-solving and critical thinking, from exposure to an academic-oriented curriculum.
Pre-K – Kindergarten Readiness
Our pre-k program, designed for 4- to 5-year-olds, focuses on kindergarten readiness, teaching children essential skills needed for success in school. In addition to strengthening cognitive, social, physical, and emotional development, we emphasize cooperating, taking turns, and following directions. Our expert early learning educators also help children understand and regulate their emotions, building their confidence and self-esteem.
Private Kindergarten – Early Academic Success
Enrolling your 5-year-old in our private kindergarten introduces them to a premium curriculum with one-on-one instructional time from nurturing, educated teachers. We strive to maintain small class sizes and low teacher-to-student ratios to ensure our teachers can focus on your child’s growth and development. Our kindergarten program includes enriching activities such as music, art, and science that build on foundational learning to support early academic success.
After School Care – Structured Engagement
Little Newtons is more than a learning center for kids; it’s a safe, structured environment for school-age children to receive after-school care. School-age children can complete homework with the guidance of our trained educators or engage in fun, social-building activities designed for children of all ages.
Summer Camp – Creativity and Social Interaction
We infuse our Little Newtons Summer Camp with our innovative early years education curriculum to inspire creativity, physical activity, and social interaction. We offer all-inclusive summer camps for full-day coverage of your child’s needs while in our care. Flexible scheduling is available so you can balance summer vacations with childcare services in Elmwood Park.
In addition to our educational summer camp, which helps your child retain what they learned in school, our summer camp activities include:
- Play-based learning with fun, physical activities in our indoor and outdoor play areas
- Field trips and guest speakers that inspire your child’s desire to learn
- World geography exploration to learn about different countries, cultures, and languages
