Infants

6 weeks – 15 months old

We offer nurturing, year-round infant care programs for babies ages 6 weeks to 15 months at our two locations in Eden Prairie and Edina, Minnesota.

Our infant classrooms provide a warm, responsive and secure environment led by experienced early childhood educators who are dedicated to supporting each child’s growth and development. Each classroom includes thoughtfully designed play and exploration areas, along with a separate quiet sleep space to ensure infants have a calm, comfortable place to rest.

During their time with us, infants are encouraged to observe, bond, connect and build new developmental skills at their own pace. Through nurturing interactions and guided exploration, we help lay the foundation for healthy social, emotional and cognitive development.

“The teachers truly take the time to know each of our boys as individuals, including their personalities and behaviors. It’s clear our boys feel comfortable, safe and trusting of their teachers—and most importantly, they have fun. The photos shared throughout the day show just how much they are learning and enjoying themselves and it honestly feels like we have new boys each week as we watch them grow and learn new things.”
