Infant Program · 6 weeks – 18 months

Gentle, attentive care for your littlest one.

From six weeks old, your baby is met with warm, consistent caregivers who follow your routines — not the other way around. Individual feeding and sleep plans, daily photo updates, and a calm, sensory-rich room help your infant feel safe, loved, and ready to explore.

Overview

A room built around your baby's rhythm

Our infant classrooms are designed for one thing: helping your baby feel secure. Consistent primary caregivers learn your child's cues — when they're hungry, tired, or ready to play — and follow an individualized schedule for eating, sleeping, and exploring. There is no rigid timetable a six-week-old has to keep up with.

The space itself is calm and purposeful: individual cribs, soft and safe surfaces for tummy time, and gentle, engaging materials that invite the earliest kind of learning. Caregivers narrate the day, sing, read, and respond — the back-and-forth that builds language and trust long before a baby's first word.

Throughout the day, you'll receive photos, feeding and diapering logs, and milestone notes through our family app, so you never miss a moment even while you're at work.

Small groups: 1 caregiver to 5 infants — small, consistent groups so every baby is truly known.

Good to Know

Infant Care questions, answered

What is the youngest age you accept?

We welcome infants starting at six weeks old at every All Around Children center.

Do you provide formula and bottles?

Yes — formula is provided. You're welcome to send breast milk or a preferred formula, and our caregivers handle safe storage, warming, and feeding on your baby's schedule.

How will I know how my baby's day went?

You'll get real-time updates through our family app — every feeding, diaper change, and nap is logged, along with photos and milestone notes throughout the day.

Do infants nap on a set schedule?

No. Infants sleep on their own schedule in individual cribs, following safe-sleep practices. We adjust as your baby's routine naturally changes.
