PROGRAMS
INFANTS
0-12 months
At MFSFD in Dorchester, we understand that nurturing young infants requires a loving and stimulating environment. Our program, designed for children aged 0 to 18 months, fosters early development through responsive caregiving, sensory exploration, and social-emotional support. We are committed to creating a safe and enriching space where infants can thrive and build the foundation for lifelong learning and growth.
TODDLERS
1-3 years
Our Toddler Program is designed to encourage exploration and learning in a safe and supportive environment. We focus on developing key milestones such as language skills, fine and gross motor skills, and social-emotional development. Through engaging activities like music and movement, art projects, and imaginative play, toddlers are encouraged to express themselves, build confidence, and prepare for the next stage of their journey. Our goal is to provide a nurturing space where toddlers can grow, learn, and thrive as they take their first steps toward independence.
