Goals

  • Enjoy activities for each developmental stage. Encouraging children to achieve specific milestones at their own pace. We are going to work on:
    • Gross and fine motor skills
    • Balance to facilitate sitting, pulling up to stand, and dynamic balance that helps with those first little steps
    • Attention and cognitive development
    • Sense of rhythm and vocalization to support the language and communication skills
    • Development of all the senses to encourage curiosity and exploration
    • Socialization
    • Proprioception that helps develop space awareness and to regulate the vital functions and emotions.
  • Support the development of safe attachment between babies and their parents
  • Provide a safe space where expat parents of 0 to 30 months children may share their experiences and mutual support
  • Encourage social networking between parents in the similar situation of living abroad
  • Provide support of a professional specialist in early intervention who can solve the doubts and accompany you through the challenges of maternity/paternity experience.
