Infants

The Robin’s Nest in Sleepy Hollow, NY, believes that learning begins at birth. Our center is designed to provide a safe, happy place for your little ones where they can grow and develop at their own pace. Our infant program serves children from 8 weeks of age until 18 months. Babies eat, sleep and play according to individual needs, helping them to feel safe and develop to their full potential. We understand that child development begins early and our staff is focused on facilitating learning at the earliest stage, which is what separates us from other child care facilities.

Our teachers recognize that every infant is unique with their own emotions, abilities and interests. We have created a program that focuses on the individual needs of each child. Our teachers take the time to develop an understanding of your child’s personality and developmental needs. The infant program provides the following for your child:

• Visual experiences through colorful toys and images
• Language development through music and interactive play
• Gross and fine motor skill development through educational toys and experiences
• Cognitive skills as little ones develop memory retention and learn to recognize sounds
• Emotional skills as infants feel safe in their environment and develop attachments
• Social skills as the child learns to recognize familiar faces and play with others and develop early friendships

The infant program teachers at The Robin’s Nest understand that infants are continuously learning. Their inquisitive nature creates an ideal opportunity for early education. Our teachers recognize these opportunities and help them learn the skills they need through play.

Our teachers are trained to work with your infant through the various stages of development. They will work with every family to create an environment which provides loving care and educational opportunities for each child who is part of this program.
