INFANT PROGRAM: FEEDING

WE WANT TO PARTNER WITH YOU IN THE FEEDING OF YOUR CHILD WHILE IN OUR CARE

We are your partners in guiding and supporting you during the many changes in feeding routines that you will experience as your child grows.

All bottles and food for infants are supplied from home. With fridges, freezers and warmers in each Infant environment, we are set up to safely and hygienically accommodate both breastfed and formula-fed babies, finger foods, jarred meals, homemade purees, etc.

WE WELCOME BREASTFEEDING MOTHERS

We provide comfortable chairs for breastfeeding mothers who would like to nurse their babies on site. Parents are also welcome to drop off expressed milk anytime during the day. To ensure a smooth transition into a group setting, breastfed babies should be successfully bottle feeding for at least one month before they join the infant class; older infants may alternatively take milk from a regular cup. In our effort to encourage independence, we offer your child the opportunity and guidance to self-feed as soon as he or she is ready.

HOW CAN WE HELP?

There are many considerations when choosing what’s best for your infant. We are here to listen, help answer questions, and partner wth you to develop the best plan for your little one as you go through transitions like feeding, sleeping, and more as your little one grows.
