Infants: 6 weeks to 12 months (Ratio 1:4)
In our Cuddlebugs class each little one has his/her own eating and sleeping schedule. With this in mind we cater to each child’s needs while providing stimulating interaction that fosters emotional and physical growth. Our infant program is designed to make each little one feel safe, secure, and loved. Our infant room staff is knowledgeable in age appropriate activities and important milestones. Your baby will receive one-on-one bonding time with their caregivers, floor activities to help foster developing gross motor skills, story time to begin language development, and introduction to music. Our room resembles a relaxed home atmosphere with cribs, age-appropriate toys, bouncers, high chairs and a comfy rocking chair. Each child has their own cubby for personal items. There is adequate space for staff to sit on the floor with baby during play.
