NORTHVILLE CLASSROOMS

At IXL Northville, we strive to provide a wide array of classroom environments that foster both personal and educational growth in all children. Discover more about each of our classrooms by clicking on them below.

INFANT

Here at IXL, personalized care is our speciality, because we know that no two babies are alike. Walk into one of our Infant classrooms and you’ll quickly discover a loving, highly individualized environment. Our caregivers work effortlessly to ensure every baby’s needs are met, including those particular little routines they fall into at home. Every child is provided with their own crib, and play time is encouraged through tummy time, jumparoos, exersaucers, and boppy seats, all of which contribute to their wellbeing, awareness, sensory perception, and motor skills. 

To further stimulate your baby’s development, we created our Littlest Smarties Curriculum, a comprehensive program featuring weekly themes, art projects, songs and fingerplays, sensory activities, sign language, and the introduction of early learning concepts. 

Led by well-trained, highly attentive staff who love what they do, our infants are nurtured and loved every minute of their day. We work hard to ensure every child is provided with the materials and experiences needed to grow and develop. This begins with a strong parent-teacher partnership and open communication. ​

INFANT TOO

We get it: the road to toddlerhood can be bumpy. That’s why we offer Infant Too classrooms, a safe environment that actively encourages babies to explore, learn, and grow their way into a strong, independent toddler. Just like our Infant classrooms, Infant Too babies receive highly personalized care from their teachers, all of whom communicate regularly with parents about their child’s routines, developmental progress, and memorable milestones. 

The program is designed to keep your baby exploring and interacting with their classroom comrades and teachers. Through our Littlest Smarties curriculum, children are engaged in age-appropriate activities, including art projects, songs and fingerplays, sensory play, sign language, and early learning with colors, shapes, and numbers. 

Led by well-trained, highly attentive staff who love what they do, our Infant Too babies are nurtured and loved every minute of their day. We work hard to ensure every child is provided with the materials and experiences needed to grow and develop. This begins with a strong parent-teacher partnership and open communication. 

TODDLER

If there’s one thing we know about toddlers, it’s that they are learning and developing so quickly, each day is different from the last. During this transformative season of development, our Toddler classroom provides the exploratory experiences your child craves while nourishing their social, physical, emotional, and cognitive growth. A wide array of materials and equipment are provided, meeting them at their individual level of development. 

This classroom operates on a flexible daily schedule, giving children a sense of security and familiarity. Guided by our Little Smarties curriculum, our toddlers engage in a small circle time where they sing songs, practice sign language, and learn basic early learning concepts. To further promote their independence, our toddlers practice washing their hands, cleaning up their play space, and sharing with friends. Everything we do, from the skills we teach to the attentive care we give, encourages constant growth and development in our youngest toddlers.

TODDLER TOO

Deep in the age of discovery and curiosity, toddlers are constantly moving, exploring, and experiencing. To satisfy their drive for exploration and independence, our Toddler Too classroom provides a consistent daily schedule loaded with fun activities, purposeful play, and educational opportunities. 

Led by our Little Smarties Curriculum, Toddler Too children are encouraged to practice communication and language skills in order to express their needs and wants. The curriculum features weekly themes, art projects, songs and fingerplays, sensory experiences, sign language, and a variety of academic concepts. Additionally, we practice skills of independence! You’ll find toddlers eating with silverware, washing their hands, using the bathroom, cleaning up after themselves, and sharing with friends. 

The supportive and nurturing environment helps our toddlers step confidently into the next stage of their development: Preschool!

YOUNG PRESCHOOL

After graduating from the energetic toddler phase, our children enter the Young Preschool classroom. This is a warm, welcoming environment that builds upon their skills of independence and promotes creative discovery. 

Our Young Preschool classrooms are guided by our IXL Social Emotional and Smart Start Curriculum, two comprehensive programs that focus on communication skills, socialization, and emotional development. The room operates on a daily schedule, and engages children through various art projects, sensory experiences, gross motor activities, outdoor play, story time, and small circle times. Our Smart Start Curriculum focuses on the mastery of shapes, colors, and counting, and introduces kiddos to the alphabet, phonics, and handwriting skills. 

Although children learn from one another and socialize together, our teachers ensure that each child receives the individual care and attention they need. Through hands-on experiences, we develop personal interaction and problem-solving skills, improving their ability to communicate, socialize, and be part of a greater community.

PRESCHOOL

At this age, your child is developing into a mature communicator who craves independence. In other words, they’ve entered the preschool phase, a magical season of rapid growth, blossoming personalities, and exciting milestones! 

In our IXL Preschool room, we focus on two major concepts: independence and education. From toilet training to manners to dressing themselves, our preschoolers are exposed to a myriad of experiences that fulfill their craving for independence. Guided by our Social Emotional Curriculum, children learn how to solve problems through conflict-resolution techniques, and our teachers show them what it means to be a good friend who listens carefully and communicates thoughtfully.  

Education is also a primary focus in our Preschool room. Structured by intentional learning stations, our classroom encourages children to try new things, test out their ideas, and fuel their imaginations. Through our Smart Start Curriculum, our kiddos practice a variety of skills, including IXL Phonics, multi-language word recognition, number, shape, and color recognition, counting, and sorting. Teachers assess each child’s development and growth, and academic and creative work is saved in their preschool portfolio. ​

PRE-K

As the final stepping stone to Kindergarten, our Pre-K Classroom focuses on social emotional development, and empowers children to build their confidence, establish routines and transitioning skills, and finesse their communication skills. 

Our Smart Start Curriculum offers a more concentrated educational focus, and actively promotes a love of learning in each of our children. Students develop their word recognition, practice writing their first and last names, and expand upon the pre-reading skills they learned in previous classrooms. We emphasize good choices, set goals, and we learn the value of cooperation, friendship, and teamwork. 

After graduating from our Pre-K Classroom, your little learner’s toolbox will be fully stocked for a successful experience in grade school and beyond.

My kids absolutely love going to IXL Northville, even on the weekends they ask to go to school to see their friends and their teachers. They are truly like extended family for our kids and treat them the same. I’ve never experienced a more caring, nurturing, educational environment and the curriculum is definitely preparing our kids for kindergarten. I would recommend this place to everyone.

We have two boys who have been attending IXL Northville since they were each 12 weeks old. They are now 4 and 2 and we could not be more pleased with the experience. In nearly 5 years at IXL, we have been amazed at the learning and level of care provided to our boys. There is a strong focus on education and preparing the kids for Kindergarten. There are frequent check ups where we are able to see the educational progress the kids are making. The pre-k summer program is also amazing, with numerous field trips and excitement for the kids. Both of our kids look forward to going to IXL in the morning, we feel comfortable leaving them there, and frequently the boys don’t want to leave at the end of the day. Thank you IXL for providing us this peace of mind!

IXL teachers and staff have treated my children like their own.  My son recently graduated from IXL and started kindergarten; I feel he was prepared and the transition was a breeze.  My daughter is cruising along learning, growing and surprising me daily with what she learns at IXL preschool program.  And the summer camp is great, I feel my kids are safe and cared for, and they have a blast!  IXL Northville is highly recommended with no reservation.

Awesome day care center! Safe, clean, enriching environment staffed by caring, compassionate and respectful teachers providing kids with exposure to a wide variety of activities and educational experiences. One of the best choices and decisions that we made early on for our child, and one that has yielded great dividends in his growth and development
