Hidden Valley School understands the profound impact of a child's environment and experiences. We observe children closely, recognizing how they are shaped by what they see and hear. Our curiosity empowers children to explore, learn, and grow in a safe and supportive space. Join us as we guide your child to discover their unique abilities and interests.

Infant Phases
What are the critical phases children MUST go through?
My observations of children that skip the phase of "mouthing and touching" objects will revert back to that phase. The usual age is 3-6 mos. and it can last up to ages 4-12 yrs.
​
It is critical that babies be allowed to touch and mouth in order to get the sensorimotor integration (Sensory motor integration refers to the link between the nerves (sensory system) and the muscles (motor skills) and to the process of receiving information through our senses, interpreting it, and organizing it.
he parietal lobe is one of the four major lobes of the cerebral cortex, located in the upper central portion of the brain. It plays crucial roles in processing sensory information, spatial awareness, and language.
We teach you how to awaken this lobe and help integrate the brain lobes.
Crawling is another phase that is needed for vision, touch and proprioception. Kids need this to be better adapted to their environment.

And if multiple foods are not introduces between age 6-12 mos....you may have a picky eater.
Caregive and Me Classes
I have been observing infants to 6 years old starting ion 2021. I have noticed that their is a critical point in zero to three that is missed by many pediatricians. Pediatrician are not to blame, but they give the informations to parents and it is the parents job to ask questions.
Informing parents about the brain development sliver of intervention is not about seeing delays, its about exposure at a time that integrates brain lobe development. I have self- studied brain development and observed see a difference in child development in those who get exposure to various tools and sensory outlets and those who do not. Here is a very helpful website for learning more. ZerotoThree
