Infant daycare and early learning program
Going beyond traditional daycare
For babies, every interaction is a moment made for development and learning. Our child care for infants program is designed to build a strong foundation for early childhood education.
Infant daycare program curriculum
Explore Lightbridge Academy’s high-quality daycare for newborns near you. Your baby’s day will be filled with learning through play that encourages them to safely explore the world around them. Our program is more than just baby daycare. Your infant will experience our theme-based curriculum that stimulates development in multiple areas:
*The ages of children in our programs varies based on local and state regulations as well as the unique needs of each child.
Fine motor skills
Clapping their hands to music, picking up finger foods and holding on to their favorite toys all help babies build dexterity and hand-eye coordination.
Language
American Sign Language is used to reduce pre-verbal frustration by helping babies express their wants and needs. This closes the gap between their ability to communicate and having their needs understood while also helping language skills grow.
Movement in space
Crawling, exploring their environment, and taking their first steps all help babies get stronger from head to toe.
Social and emotional
Our teachers use smiles, embraces, and encouraging words to build trust and help children thrive in social situations, setting them up for healthy relationships.
Cognitive
Stimulating brain function helps infants build skills such as object permanence and rationalization.
Extra support for nursing mothers
The transition from maternity leave back to work can be especially challenging for breastfeeding moms.
