Infant Care Program

Highly responsive care in early childhood is critical to your child’s success in school, relationships, and in life.
 
Anna's Child Care provides a secure, home-like environment where your baby will be loved, safe, and cared for. Understanding that every moment with an infant is precious, the Infant Care Program will work to stimulate your baby’s cognitive, emotional and physical development through movement, exploration and one-on-one nurturing. Through simple games like peekaboo, singing, and reading, I do everything possible to bond with your baby and develop a sense of trust.

Baby Schedule

The schedule for our little ones is very much different from our toddlers, and even 1 year old infants.  For babies under the age of 1 year old, we follow the individual schedule suggested by parents.  We work together with parents to make sure that the selected feeding and napping times are the best choice for the baby.   We apply a smooth and comfortable transition when baby is ready to start napping twice a day, and then ones a day as they grow. 

                                The Infant Care Program offers:

1. Language development — using books, songs and activities that match your child’s development level
   
2. Cognitive development — using activities like peekaboo, hide and go seek, and shape-sorting toys
   
3. Motor Skill development — grasping toys, tummy time, and toys to push and pull around the room
   
4. Sensory development — touching items with various textures and feeling materials in the sensory bin
   
5. Rest and nap time
   
6. Nutritional guidelines
   
7. Age-appropriate materials and equipment support learning and development
   
8. Aligned with the state’s Guidelines for Healthy Child Development and Care
