Each of ABC’s two infant classrooms are geared to stretch and challenge your developing infant. The classrooms are divided into “young infants” and “older infants” to ensure environments that are equipped for each growth stage.
Our Young Infant room was designed to nurture our youngest of students. Lots of music, visual stimulation and cuddle time are packed into each day. Schedules are designed to meet the needs of each child and are slowly shaped as your baby gets older. Our goal is to get our babes up and crawling from one end of the room to the other before transitioning at approximately 9 months.
Our Older Infant room is where all the action happens! Babies go from two naps down to one, jarred foods to solids, bottles to cups and crawling to walking. We are looking for each baby to be walking very well and beginning to navigate stairs before starting the journey into our toddler rooms at approximately 15 months.
