Our infant childcare program emphasizes a warm, nurturing and safe environment.
Program Goals for Infants

-
Affection
To provide the loving care and affection so necessary for an infant’s development so that each child will know that he/she is a special person created by God.
-
Physical Needs
To provide, in every way possible, for the infant’s physical needs.
-
Activate the Senses
