Infant Schedule
In the infant nursery, "T.L.C.", individual approach is stressed. This means that each infant's "at home schedule" is followed by our infant care providers. As each baby grows, Youthland adjusts their schedule to that of the baby's. Each baby is cuddled and loved, as they are bottle fed in the childcare provider's arms. We know how important that is to a child's development.
Each baby has their own crib, which parents are welcome to personalize and make like home. Parents are provided with a storage bin to store extra clothes, diapers, and wipes. The Teachers at Youthland Academy sterilize toys, equipment, and bedding on a daily basis to prevent the spread of germs. Parents and visitors to the room are asked to remove their shoes and sanitize hands before entering. The staff is also trained in Youthland's elaborate diaper changing procedure. When the Infant Teacher is not involved with the immediate needs of the babies, she stimulates them through play activities in which their small and large motor skills are developed.
- Diaper changing occurs every 1 ½ - 2 hours or more often as needed
- Babies are fed according to their individual schedules
- Cuddling and play occur throughout the day
