Infant Daily Schedule
8:00 am: You arrive at the center, check your child in using our secure check in system and then it's off to your child's classroom where you are greeted by their loving teacher.
8:15 am: Working on your child's physical and cognitive development they play with their teacher on a textured mat. Touching your child's hand to the different textures and repeating words like "this part is soft," and "this part is rough." Rotating your child around to different sections of the mat and repeating the descriptive words, their teacher works to promote their brain growth as well as, their upper body muscles as they support themselves on their bellies.
8:45 am: Next, the teacher chooses an activity that will help build language and communication skills. Placing your child on their lap, the teacher reads and sings a nursery rhyme to your child. Beginning to exhibit their own language skills your child coos happily to the sound of the teacher's voice repeating the rhyme.
9:30 am: Your child's teacher notices it's time for a diaper change and that your child is beginning to get hungry. After changing their 100% cotton diaper and warming their bottle they settle together in the rocking chair to eat and cuddle.
10:00 am: Noticing the heaviness in your child's eyes it's time for their morning nap. Settling them down in their crib they drift off to sleep.
11:30 am: Up and ready to be active again it's a perfect time to explore the outdoors on a walk in our buggy. After a diaper change they are carefully strapped in then off they go. Integrating the senses of both hearing and seeing your child enjoys the sunshine and breeze.
12:30 pm: Back from the walk they are hungry again and ready to eat. After warming their bottle their teacher sings them a song while they enjoy their meal.
12:45 pm: Happy, fed and changed, it's time for some tummy time. Placed gently on one of our soft quilts your child develops motor skills that will allow head and trunk control and one day even help them with skills like holding a pencil and writing.
1:15 pm: It's story time! Placing your child face up on a blanket their teacher reads the story to them while pointing to and identifying the pictures to your child. Working on developing their expressive language skills the teacher notices your child's interest in the story by little sounds they produce, giving positive reinforcement and encouragement to this vocalization.
2:00 pm: Before long nap time is here again. After a fresh change and a gentle lullaby your child is asleep again.
3:30 pm: Waking up from their nap it's time for another bottle and a gentle rock in the rocking chair with their teacher.
4:00 pm: Ready for more movement they are engaged by their teacher in face to face interaction. Repeating their name your child raises their head and looks up at their teacher who is developing their social skills as they reinforce their reactions with a smile and a clap.
5:00 pm: It's time to go home soon. You arrive to find your child's happy smile as you enter the room and are greeted by the teacher who tells you about all the fun activities they did during the day.
