A Day in This Program

Picture Your Child’s Day

MORNING
Each morning starts with a warm welcome and time to play and explore before breakfast. From there, it’s tummy time, fresh air, or explorations in the sensory room before nap time.

MIDDAY
After lunch and clean-up, babies move, grow, connect, and rest on their own individual schedule, with soothing routines that follow their cues, not the clock.
AFTERNOON
The rest of the day includes more fresh air and fun in the sensory room, plus rest and snacks when needed.
