Infant's House

Ages 3 to 15 Months

Observing More, Doing Less

Casa Boto Rosa is where every Casa Feliz journey begins. We welcome only infants under 6 months old, ensuring they start their earliest years in a calm, predictable, and respectful environment where they can develop a sense of self, movement, and cognition at their own pace.

At Casa Feliz, children begin together in a cohort, forming lasting relationships.

As Magda Gerber wisely said:
“Observe more, do less. Do less, enjoy more.”

At this stage, infants learn through uninterrupted exploration, forming secure attachments and naturally discovering their abilities.

Toddler House

Aged 15 to 30 months

Exploring Independence with Security

Toddlers move to Casa Mico-Leão Dourado between 15 and 18 months, depending on their readiness. Here, they begin exploring more actively while maintaining the security of familiar caregivers and peers.

Magda Gerber describes this stage: “A toddler, like an infant,
needs to experience the world on his own terms with his own actions.”

Play School

Aged 2 to 5 years old

Confidence, Cooperation, and Readiness
for the Next Stage

Casa Arara Azul is the final stage in the Casa Feliz journey. Children deepen their social connections, refine problem-solving skills, and gain independence as they prepare for the transition beyond Casa Feliz.

From 2.5 to 5 years old, children remain with their cohort, strengthening bonds and feeling secure in a familiar environment. Activities evolve to meet their growing needs, but transitions within the house happen naturally, without rushing development.

As Magda Gerber explains:
“If we can learn to trust children, we will discover how capable they really are.”

Please note:
Casa Feliz ONLY accepts infants between 3 and 6 months old.

By initiating care no later than six months, we can create stable peer groups, offer individualized attention, and help each child build strong, secure relationships from the outset. This thoughtful beginning is the heart of what we do.

A Community
of Respect and Trust

At Casa Feliz, our cohort model ensures stability, consistency, and deep relationships.

We do not accept new enrollments after infancy, as our focus is on providing a long term, continuous experience from infancy to age five.

By joining Casa Feliz early, families become part of a supportive community where children thrive in a trusted environment, growing at their own pace with the same caregivers and peers.
