Our Baby & Infant Daycare Curriculum

Our Infant rooms are truly a special place. We work as a team with you to ensure your child receives personalized care and attention to detail, as well as providing the special support first-time parents often need in an infant daycare setting.

Infant Daycare

Our Approach

Our Infants program is designed to be in rhythm with your child’s individual habits and routines. For example, there are no set sleeping times. Infants nap when their little bodies tell them to. The program of our baby daycare is also all-inclusive, whereby all personal care items such as diapers, disposable wipes and sunscreen are included.

Daily exchange of information with parents is vital in order to provide your child with a high level of personalized attention. With the help of our infant daycare daily communications app, we are able to convey essential feedback and information with regards to subjects such as sleep patterns, bowel movements, appetite and activities.

About The Activities at Our Infant Daycare

The structuring of activities for our infants is organized according to the unfolding of daily personal care rituals and customary activities such as music and playing with our wide variety of age-appropriate toys. Personal care activities such as feeding, changing and getting dressed provide the one-on-one moments vital for infants’ well-being and healthy development.

Outdoor play on their very own sun-protected gallery offers infants varied sensory experiences such as feeling the wind blowing on their face, hearing the sounds of birds chirping and smelling fresh grass. We often do water and bubble-blowing play here as well.

More Than Just a Private Infant Daycare

While our infant daycare program provides nurturing, personalized care for children aged 6 to 17 months, we also offer a full continuum of early childhood programs to support your child’s development every step of the way. From Toddlers to Junior and Senior Pre-Kindergarten, your child can grow and thrive within the same safe and trusted environment.
