Infants

Children enrolled in the Infant program range in ages from 12 weeks up to approximately 18 months of age with a caregiver: child ratio of 1:4 with a group size maximum of 8 children. Our Infants are on their own individual schedules based on the specific and needs of the child. This means that each infant must be allowed to follow his or her own pattern of sleeping and waking periods, as mandated by the State.

Our infants are given opportunities during each day to move freely by moving about in a safe, clean, open, warm and uncluttered area. New Dream Family Center uses the creative curriculum to plan develop curriculum that encourages the development of skills such as feeding and moving. The child’s caregiver or parent receives a report each day with information pertaining to their feeding, diapering and sleeping times.
