What's your bottle and breast-milk policy?

All bottles must be labeled with your child's name, the date, and contents (formula vs. breast milk). We follow your feeding schedule. Breast-milk donations are welcome — there's a clean prep area in the infant room.

Do you do tummy time daily?

Yes — multiple times a day starting from when your baby joins us. We track total minutes and your baby's tolerance and share both in the daily update.

What if my baby isn't sleeping on your schedule?

We follow your home schedule, not the other way around. As your baby's needs shift, we adjust together — there's no fixed nap clock in the infant room.

Are immunizations required?

Yes, current immunizations per Texas HHSC are required at enrollment. If your child is on a delayed schedule with your pediatrician's approval, we'll need that documentation in writing.

Curriculum focus

What we work on at this age.

Sensory development
Mirror work, mobile tracking, texture baskets, and music to build vision, hearing, and proprioception in safe doses.
Language exposure
We narrate the day in plain language and read aloud at every nap-down. Gentle exposure to multiple home languages where families have them.
Attachment-led care
Babies are soothed by predictable people. Lead caregivers stay consistent so your baby builds real bonds, not just supervision.
Safe sleep practices
Back-sleeping, firm crib surfaces, no bumpers, no loose blankets. We follow AAP guidelines without exception.

What we focus on tracking

Developmental milestones.

Head and neck control, rolling, and pre-crawling work tracked weekly.
First sounds, first words, and growing vocabulary noted in daily updates.
Spoon and cup readiness; transitioning from purées to table food on your timeline.
Object permanence, cause-and-effect, and early problem-solving with simple Montessori puzzles.

When does my child move up?

Babies move up when they're ready, not by birthday.

Most infants transition into the toddler room around 12 to 14 months — when they're walking confidently and showing readiness for the new environment. We schedule visits to the next room well before the move and you'll know about every step.
