Engaging Hearts, Equipping Minds
Les Petits Program
Les Petits offers a menu of both part-time and full-time program options to suit our families’ varying needs. With an immersive French program, our center caters to children from 3 months to 3 years old, creating age-appropriate spaces that support children in reaching developmental milestones.
By combining educational philosophies and research on early childhood education from across the globe, we are able to create an anti-bias curriculum that exposes children to thinking beyond borders.
Infant and Wobbler Rooms 3 - 18 Months
Les Petits is staffed by multilingual teachers who immerse the babies in French. At these ages, the emphasis is on each child’s unique stage of development; babies’ brains are in the optimal stage for learning native pronunciation making this the prime time for a “more is better” approach! Absorbing a second language during infancy enhances memory, multitasking, self-expression, and much more later on.
From a young age, your little one interacts with various cultures, which helps them recognize the beauty in people’s differences. An anti-bias curriculum teaches young minds the values of acceptance, equality, diversity, and community.
Teachers use the Conscious Discipline® method to teach your baby about identifying emotions like happiness, sadness, excitement, impatience, and more. Little ones also learn age-appropriate ways of managing their emotions.
Your baby relies on a varied sensory diet to boost their cognitive development. Music, baby signing, a sensory garden, dance, and outdoor play twice a day help your baby express themselves while learning new skills and having fun!

Young Toddlers 18 Months - 2.75 Years
Our Toddlers rooms have a low ratio of 1:4 to ensure children receive the dedicated care they require and allow us to provide an individualized experience for each of our little learners.
Thanks to an immersive language program, your toddler gets a head start on becoming bilingual. Teachers speak to little ones in French to get them comfortable switching between their mother tongue and their second language.
An anti-bias curriculum teaches your toddler how to celebrate differences, keep an open mind, and appreciate different cultures. They will learn that diversity in the world is what makes it beautiful.
Developing lifelong social-emotional skills is just as important to your toddler’s development as academic learning. Using Conscious Discipline®, children learn to be patient, recognize their feelings, understand how their actions impact others, and start verbalizing their emotions.
Programs such as dance, music and yoga stimulate your toddler’s senses and enhance their cognitive development. Developing creative hobbies allows them to express themselves while refining their burgeoning motor skills.
Outdoor play happens twice daily for 45-60 minutes on spacious, age-appropriate playgrounds. Your toddler develops large muscle groups and gross motor skills as they run, jump, and climb with friends on safe play structures and use our outdoor equipment which we regularly rotate to provide new and engaging activities.
Events and celebrations are hosted each year, with parents invited to join in on the fun at any time. As health and safety protocols allow, we strive to offer parent courses where you learn with other parents in the Atlas community! Topics include language exchanges, Conscious Discipline® theory and practice, and general early childhood development knowledge.
