Infants
VIP EAST
the VIP East infant program (6 weeks to 18 months)
Leaving your baby in someone else’s care is a big step. Everyone at our facility, most importantly, our naturally gifted teachers, will work with you to make sure the transition goes smoothly. When you step into our infant classroom, you’ll see how much we want your infant to feel safe, loved, and ready to explore.
Activities We Do Together
Here are some examples of activities we do together:
- Group time: We come together to sing songs, read books and discover new things about the world!
- Cuddle Time: Infants in our classroom get lots of one-on-one time with teachers.
- Outdoor Play: Every day, infants go outside into the fresh air to explore nature.
- We follow your infant's natural rythm: Once your infant moves into the toddler classroom, they'll begin a daily rhythm as a class. For now, how your infant spends their days with us has a lot to do with their natural rhythm at home.

Minimizing Foot Traffic
As soon as your infant is ready to start crawling and scooting around, it’s important to give them the freedom to explore. An environment with less foot traffic keeps dirt off the ground and their little hands and mouths safe from germs and dirt while they discover the world.
Keeping Cribs Free and Clear
We keep cribs clear of items like pillows and toys. Our pack n’ plays are personalized with your infant’s name and if they can roll over yet or not. Plus, they’re see-through so we can keep an eye on your little one.
Flexible Feeding Schedules to Fit Your Infant's Needs
Whether you breastfeed or bottle-feed, we’ll keep your infant fed, happy, and healthy. We have policies to carefully label and separate breast milk and formula. And you’re always welcome to stop in on a break to feed your baby!
Take a look at how we set up our classroom for infants. It’s organized for their age and stage of learning and development.
Our food is yummy, healthy, and included in tutition!
