Family Access

We understand that choosing the people who will care for your ‘heart’ when you are not there is an important and, often difficult, decision. You want to know your baby is safe, loved and nurtured. Our nationally-accredited infant program offers spacious, safe classrooms with educated, well-trained staff and a comprehensive support system for families to give you and your baby what you need to grow and flourish. We honor the relationship between you and your child and value your relationship with us.

Our infant classroom is designed to allow plenty of opportunity for exploration, and our low teacher-child ratios (3 teachers to 7 infants) facilitate sensitive and responsive relationships. Low shelves give infants independent access to their choice of toys, floor pads cushion young crawlers, climbing lofts build strong bodies and adventurous minds, and sleeping areas with individual cribs ensure restful naps. Age-appropriate infant equipment and manipulative toys enhance motor skills and intellectual curiosity. Infants remain in the same classroom for an entire year, promoting strong attachment with caregivers. Weather permitting, teachers take the children out on buggy rides and spread out blankets on the field to encourage babies to explore their natural surroundings and enjoy the fresh air.

Keeping your baby’s health and well-being in mind, the teachers remove mouth toys to sanitize when the child is no longer interested in that particular toy. We also thoroughly clean all touched surfaces and equipment and air out the classroom when the children and teachers are either outside or in the gross motor auditorium. Teachers and other staff remove their outdoor shoes before entering the classrooms.
