Our Infant Care

Our infant program prioritizes a nurturing environment that fosters healthy social and emotional interactions, while imparting language acquisition, body awareness, and motor control.

Our strengths:

We strive to provide top-notch infant care in a warm and secure environment. Each child enjoys his or her own crib, with fresh linen changed daily, and sanitized toys ready for playtime. Sleep and feeding schedules are carried out by attentive staff members, who will follow your instructions to the letter. Your Baby’s Day report provides detailed information on your little one’s activities and developmental milestones throughout the day. Our goal is to ensure your child feels nurtured, safe, and happy while in our care.

Routine

Routines and schedules are important for infant development because they provide a sense of security and stability. Infants thrive on regularity, familiarity, and predictability. Establishing a routine can help babies become more independent and self-regulating by teaching them to anticipate what comes next. Using routines helps infants learn how to control their emotions, trust others, develop problem-solving skills, and contribute to their overall cognitive, social, emotional, physical, language and literacy development.

Clealiness

Cleanliness is important for infant development because it helps to reduce the risk of infection and illness. A clean environment also encourages healthy eating habits, physical activity, and mental stimulation. Proper hygiene practices can help minimize the spread of bacteria and viruses that can cause serious health problems in infants. Additionally, maintaining a clean environment can promote healthy emotional development as children learn to practice organization, discipline, and orderliness in their daily lives.

Infant nutrition

Nutrition is important for infant development because it provides them with essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that are necessary for healthy growth. Proper nutrition plays a key role in promoting physical development, cognitive development, and emotional well-being. Infants need adequate amounts of protein, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals and water to provide the energy and nutrients necessary for growth and development. Nutrition helps ensure that infants receive the nourishment they need to meet their physical growth and psychological needs. Adequate nutrition also supports normal functioning of the immune system and can help prevent diseases in children.

Continuity of care

Continuity of care is important for infant development because it allows a baby to form an attachment to their primary caregiver. This secure attachment serves as the foundation for all future social relationships and helps them feel safe, secure, and supported in the world. Having continuity of care also ensures that a baby receives consistent physical, mental, emotional, and developmental care from the same people over time which can help them have better health outcomes in the long run.

Outdoor time

Outdoor time is important for infant development because it provides an opportunity for infants to observe and explore their environment in a safe and stimulating way. It also encourages infants to move around, helping them learn about physical activities like crawling, walking, and jumping. Outdoor time also offers opportunities for sensory exploration and learning, as babies interact with different textures, sounds, smells, and visual stimuli that they wouldn't encounter indoors. It allows babies to explore the world around them while building physical strength, developing motor skills, increasing awareness of their surroundings, and creating positive associations with nature.

Important Milestones

-Reaching out and grasping objects (3 months)
-Rolling over from stomach to back (4 months)
-Sitting up without support (6 months)
-Crawling or scooting on belly (8 months)
-Walking independently (12-15 months)

About our infant care daily routine.

Our infant daily schedule is specially designed to make children feel at home and at ease. Our team takes care of them with daily schedules that aid their growth and development while in our program. We adapt to the needs of children under 8 months as we believe they should be in charge of the daily routine. When new students enroll in our program before the age of 8 months, they transition into childcare effortlessly. But as your child grows and develops, they may require a slower transition to care, as all children have different needs. That's why we require two 1-hour visits (at no charge) before enrolling. This system is in place to consider everyone involved in the potential class since most of our students have been with us and are sensitive to newcomers. Below is our daily routine for students 10M and up.
