Infants
Welcome to the Infant Care program at Kangaroo's Korner! We understand that the first year of life is a time of incredible growth and discovery, which is why our program is dedicated to creating a warm, safe, and deeply responsive "home away from home" for your baby. We prioritize building a secure attachment between our nurturing educators and your infant, ensuring they feel completely safe to explore their surroundings. By following your family’s unique feeding, sleeping, and care schedules, we provide a seamless transition from home to center, allowing your little one to thrive, feel loved, and develop at their own natural pace.
Values
Responsive Nurturing
We believe in immediate, loving responses to every cry, coo, and gesture, building a foundation of absolute trust and emotional security.
01
Safe Exploration
Our environment is meticulously designed for our tiniest learners, offering clean, secure spaces where they can safely move, roll, and explore.
02
Individualized Routines
We do not force infants into a rigid center schedule; instead, we mold our day around your baby’s specific biological needs for sleeping and eating.
03
Sensory Enrichment
We provide meaningful, hands-on experiences with different textures, sounds, and visual elements to spark early brain development and curiosity.
04
Milestones
1
Motor Skill Foundations
Infants will progress from lifting their heads and rolling over to mastering sitting up, crawling, and eventually pulling themselves up to stand.
2
Early Communication
Your baby will move from crying as communication to cooing, babbling, mimicking sounds, and using expressive gestures like waving or pointing.
3
Sensory & Cognitive Awareness
Children will learn to track objects with their eyes, reach for toys, explore items with their hands and mouths, and begin to understand cause-and-effect (like shaking a rattle).
4
Social Attachment
Infants will hit crucial emotional milestones, including recognizing familiar faces, flashing their first social smiles, and learning to interact and bond with their caregivers and peers.
