Infant Program

Our Infant Program is a specially designed space where we cater to the unique needs of your little one from 6 weeks of age until their first birthday. Our program is crafted with care to provide a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment during these crucial early stages of development.

In our infant room, we maintain a teacher-to-child ratio of 1:4, ensuring that each baby receives individualized attention and care. Our experienced and attentive teachers are committed to creating a warm and secure atmosphere, fostering a sense of trust and comfort for both infants and families.

Safe Sleep Practices

During rest time, caring for the individual needs and natural rhythms of each child is at the forefront. Embracing the uniqueness of every infant, our rest time routine is centered around their own sleep schedule. We adhere to Safe Sleep Practices, ensuring a secure environment by placing infants on their backs to sleep and maintaining cribs free of soft bedding. To enhance the comfort of their nap, families are kindly requested to provide a crib sheet, adding a familiar touch to their designated sleeping space. Additionally, we offer the option for families to bring a sleep sack, providing an extra layer of comfort and warmth for their little ones. Our dedicated staff is attuned to the cues of each infant, creating a peaceful and personalized nap time experience that aligns with the practices and preferences established by each family.

Feeding Policy

 At Kids Corner, our feeding policy is designed to ensure an individualized approach to infant nutrition.
  • Individualized Feeding: We understand that every child is unique, and we tailor our feeding practices to meet the individual needs and preferences of each child. Infants are fed based on their cues for hunger, fullness, and a family provided feeding schedule.
    • If your child has begun to eat solid foods, please ensure any food is not packed in glass containers.
  • Family Provided Bottles: Families must provide premade bottles for their child. Whether it’s formula or breast milk, we’re here to support your chosen feeding method. We can also keep a fresh, unopened canister of formula in the classroom for emergencies. Bottles can be warmed in a bottle warmer if needed. Bottles and bottle lids need to be labeled with the child’s name.

Diapering

Our teachers regularly check students throughout the day and looking for the telling signs that a child has soiled their diaper. For convenience, the infant room has a diaper changing station in the room so the children can remain clean and healthy. We ask that families provide wipes, diapers, and any necessary creams needed.

Personal Belongings

Each child has a personal cubby for their belongings. To prevent loss or theft, please avoid sending personal items like toys from home and please make sure all items are properly labeled with the child’s name.
