DAILY SCHEDULE

This schedule is meant to give you an idea of your child’s day. Actual times and activities may vary depending on time of the year, weather, age and temperament of the children. Age appropriate activities are scheduled with the flexibility allowed to respond to the needs of each individual child and their various ages. Throughout each day we practice on reaching, grasping, rolling, sitting, crawling, standing, walking, climbing, throwing, catching, kicking, cooing and talking; which ever developmental stage your child happens to be in at the time.

Infant/Young Toddler (6 Weeks-18 Months)

Lots of cuddles, love, and affection, tummy time, free play.

NAP TIMES

Nap times are typically around 9:00am and 12:30pm. Younger infants can be given a third nap in the later afternoon if needed, and older infants no longer requiring two naps a day will just take a single nap at 12:30pm. The State of Texas requires that all children under the age of five have at least a two hour rest period every day. No child will ever be forced to sleep, however good and regular sleep schedules are encouraged.

DAILY CONNECT

We utilize an extremely informative mobile app called Daily Connect to keep parents up to date with their child's day. As soon as an event is saved, it is immediately synchronized on each parents account. Everybody has access to the information in real time. Additionally, at the end of each day parents receive a detailed email listing the events of the day, such as, when your child was given a bottle (if applicable), what they ate and drank, when diapers were changed and what it was, their nap schedule, and any other pertinent information.
