In our infant rooms, the daily routine is always flexible to accommodate the infants’ individual needs. Because of the different feeding/sleeping schedules of each infant, the daily routine revolves around the child focusing on age-appropriate exploration and play, socialization, auditory and visual stimulation, sensory activities and outdoor experiences.
PREPARING YOUR CHILD TO BEGIN CHILD CARE
Parents should provide a written, “Day in the Life” summary of what the infants’ routine is like at home. This is very helpful when acclimating a new baby to our program.
For breast fed infants: Parents should address readiness for an infant that is breast fed at home to accept feedings from a bottle while in care.
TRANSITION GOALS
The goals we work toward before the first transition of care involve reaching the developmental milestones during the first 12 months.
