Infant Room
Infant Room - Birth through 12 months
Our Focus:
Our infant room provides a warm, welcoming environment where your baby can grow from a bundle of joy to a bundle of curiosity. Our babies are cared for by friendly, enthusiastic and responsive caregivers in a calm, soothing, happy environment. Each infant will havea primary caregiver who will create a strong bond and foster each infant's individual growth. We strive to help the babies reach their developmental milestones, including grasping, rolling, sitting, crawling, standing, feeding themselves and eventually walking. Each baby's individual schedule is followed, babies are fed on demand and changed every two hours.
