Programs: Infant

Your baby's discoveries are safely nurtured in our exceptional infant program.

We're so much more than infant daycare. Goddard School's nurturing teachers guide your baby's early experiences toward a lifelong love of learning.

Our nursery is designed to create a warm and secure environment for your infant. From the peaceful sleeping alcove to the big rocking chairs where babies are held and fed, your child is in a very special place at Goddard.

Our teachers spend lots of time cuddling and talking to your baby to instill trust and provide a healthy early learning environment for movement, exploration and communication.
  • Balancing home and Goddard: Teachers work with you to develop your child's daily schedule including naptimes, playtimes and bottle times. You're welcome to visit anytime.
  • Just the right amount of stimulation: Our infant care play area is filled with toys and books that help your baby develop at his or her own pace.
  • First learning skills: Teachers sing songs and read stories to encourage language acquisition. They also pass balls and play games to develop motor skills.
  • Early communication: In many Goddard Schools, American Sign Language is introduced in Infant Rooms with amazing results. Your child learns to express thoughts or needs without language ability.
  • Playing safely: To offer plenty of room for movement and exploration, we limit swings and play seats in our Infant Rooms.
  • First Steps transition: In our First Steps classroom, we help your child transition from infant to toddler as your budding explorer learns new vocabulary and self-help skills.
