This study examines how early stimulation influences the development of receptive language in infants under 3 years old within a child stimulation center, aligning with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goal 4, which promotes inclusive and quality education from early childhood. To evaluate the impact of these interventions on receptive language development, an applied research study was conducted with a quantitative approach and a pre-experimental design. The sample consisted of 11 infants selected through non-probabilistic sampling. Data collection employed a validated observation guide with high reliability (α=0.954), encompassing five specific dimensions. The results indicated that, following the intervention, 100% of the evaluated children achieved a high level of receptive language, with a statistically significant improvement (p=0.000). In conclusion, early stimulation proved to be an effective tool for promoting receptive language development in infants, highlighting the need to implement similar programs in educational centers to strengthen linguistic competencies from early childhood.
