We Love Our Babies!
Our Programs:
Noah's Ark Quality Academy focuses on children ages 0- 12. All of our programs intertwine making it an exceptional program for each child in our care! Everything that we do and teach we use the greatest foundation which is Love! We have age-appropriate exceptional programs for each stage of our children’s lives:
​
Infants Program:
Infants are provided a soft, quiet environment, personal play spaces, and cozy nurturing time with their Primary Caregivers, who play a vital socialization role with the infants. Warm, positive relationships between infant and caregiver help the infant develop a sense of trust, where the trusted caregiver becomes a secure base from which the mobile infant explores the environment.

Throughout each of our infant programs, new experiences, as well as those that can be repetitive and practiced are a great part of our day. An individualized, familiar, and flexible daily routine specific to your child, provides security as the caregivers respond to your child’s individual needs of hunger, thirst, sleep, and interaction. Our infant Caregivers have been caring for newborns and infants for years, and they are keeping current on their training and education of caring for infants

OUTDOOR, SENSORY & DRAMATIC PLAY!
​
Outdoor Play
Essential for gross motor development and allows opportunities for dramatic play and experimenting with natural materials. Fresh air is also important for a child’s health.
Sensory Play
Children experience their environment through their senses, taste, touch, smell, sight, and sound. We provide the many fun, "messy,” and exciting activities that a child can only experience with the teachers at Noah’s Ark.
Dramatic Play
Early on, children discover the joy of dress-up and make-believe through dramatic play materials. A child learns to: Play out home experiences, develop muscular coordination (ironing, rocking, dressing dolls, setting tables, serving foods…Has the opportunity to play alone or with others. He/She could be a helper for others. Children may begin to cooperate with others. They reveal thoughts and attitudes through interactions and conversations with others.
OUR POEM
Although I’m not their mother, I care for them each day, I cuddle, sing and read to them, and watch them as they play, I see each new accomplishment, and help them grow and learn, I understand their language and I listen with concern, They come to me for comfort and I kiss away their tears, They proudly show their work to me, I give the loudest cheers, Know I’m not their mother, But my role is just as strong, I nurture them and keep them safe though maybe not for long, I know someday the time may come that we will have to part. But I know each child I’ve cared for is forever in my heart.
