SUNFLOWER CHILD CARE CENTER
INFANT ROOM
Sunflower is one of the only local child care centers that accepts infants!
​
The infant rooms accepts babies from ages 6 weeks to 18 months (depending on available space in the Toddler, Tweener, and Pre-School rooms). It is staffed by 1 full time caregiver and 2 part-time caregivers (one in the morning, one in the afternoon.) The room is typically divided into two groups.
​
We have a staff to infant ratio of 1:3 and 1:4.
​
SCHEDULE
Throughout the day, the infants in the classroom are involved in many daily routines. Each infant is on his or her own planned schedule so individualizing is very important in our classroom.

Some of the activities and daily routines are:​
-

-
Outside Time: Focusing on Gross Motor Development
