Infants
At the Malvern School, our Infant Program** provides a warm, nurturing environment for your child and offers countless opportunities for your child to explore through observation, movement, and use of their senses. We go beyond the traditional infant program to introduce education at an early age. Curriculum implementation considers the varying ages and schedules of each child.
First Step
The Malvern School provides First Steppers with a warm, stimulating environment and daily opportunities to explore and make choices under the guidance of a caring teacher. Our curriculum** focuses on building independence and confidence while engaging in fun, age-appropriate learning activities. Our small group provides a sense of security during this transition period from infancy to toddlerhood.

The Malvern School Get Set Program provides children with learning activities perfect for their “get ready, get set, and go” stage. Get Set is one of our signature early childhood education programs** where children concentrate on independence and self-help skills. Our teachers provide personal attention during this exciting and active transitional period from toddlerhood to preschool.
Preschool
