INFANTS
   Taking care of infants is incredibly demanding.  Each
infant has different needs and each need must be met.  From constant monitoring of each child to proper feeding and the all-important clean diaper, every need is met and every action recorded.
   We also realize how anxious new parents are in leaving their infants.  Our infant care specialists go to great lengths to make certain parents are informed daily about the high quality care their child receives.  Our warm, loving atmosphere gives these children a safe, secure feeling and helps them get through the physical separation from their parents during the day.
   As these infants grow, it is vitally important their senses be stimulated in a wholesome way.  Kids 'R' Kids infants are exposed to a bright and colorful environment during the first few months of life that helps them develop the sensory perception that is so crucial to the growth of every child.
   At Kids 'R' Kids, we know how important development is in the first year of life.  Offering infants a clean, safe place to grow, play and learn is what Kids 'R' Kids is all about.

TODDLERS
   Teaching toddlers about their surroundings is an important part of the Kids 'R' Kids program.  The Kids 'R' Kids basic philosophy that children should be "Hugged first, then taught" is evident at all age groups.  This philosophy is a particularly important part of caring for and teaching two and three-year-olds.
   Toddlers are naturally curious and at our school, children can explore their world in safe surroundings.  We believe that it is never too early to teach children about the things around them.
   Teachers find that introducing concepts and watching the development of two and three-year-olds can be extremely rewarding.  Showing them pictures, allowing them to touch, smell and create objects are just a few activities necessary for healthy development.  In addition, teachers are encouraged to let these children hold and identify items, talk, walk, feed themselves, and accomplish potty training.
   Treating each child as an individual is critical during the development of a child's creative potential.  Kids 'R' Kids teachers are caring, gentle people with a genuine concern about each child's well-being.

PRE-SCHOOL
   At this age, children are beginning to prepare for school.  As professionals, the teachers at Kids 'R' Kids provide a structured learning environment so each child will have a strong foundation for their elementary school years.
   The developing personality of each child is more evident as they grow and the teachers at our facility take special care to watch the progress of each child and report that progress to parents.  By focusing on the positive aspects of a child's behavior, teachers promote an atmosphere that allows each child to grow at his or her own pace, developing skills that will help them realize their highest potential.
   Activities such as recognizing the alphabet, beginning to read, working with numbers, exploring arts and crafts, refining hand-eye coordination and problem-solving skills are used by Kids 'R' Kids teachers to contribute to the child's development.  As part of our child development program, we also offer Spanish classes to our preschoolers at no charge so that they become familiar with the second most spoken language in Texas.
   From the simple task of offering nourishing snacks to providing exciting ways to learn, our teachers show children that coming to a Kids 'R' Kids facility is a wonderful experience and most importantly, that learning can be fun!

SCHOOL-AGE
   In many families, both parents work, making after-school programs critical during the school year and particularly during the summer.  For children five to twelve years of age, our facility offers what parents are looking for - additional learning time, supervised activities, and a safe environment.
   By meeting with parents, our teachers can determine what each child requires after school.  Perhaps an older child needs more help in order to complete homework assignments or a younger child may need special tutoring in reading or math,  and everyone knows that after a busy day at school, children need time to play.  Supervised playgrounds are divided by age groups and give each child the chance to direct that special energy only children have.  We also have a separate gameroom area.
