Infant Childcare
At no other stage of life does learning occur so rapidly.
Find comfort knowing your child is in the right place at the right time!
Available to children as young as 3 months old
The Blessed Assurance Infant Programs have been carefully designed to deliver safe, nurturing and stimulating environments with activities to help children achieve important milestones while having fun!
Every day reveals an exciting new world for the babies in our care. Learning and development starts long before birth and accelerates rapidly afterwards. Therefore, infants must continually build knowledge and connect new ideas to what they already know and do.
Our Big Steps Curriculum® for infants nurtures and supports the development of abilities that babies need to succeed in learning, literacy, and life.

Daily Activities
While at Blessed Assurance, each infant will engage in activities designed to shape and advance the many aspects of their being. Our whole-child approach is guaranteed to ensure babies grow into happy, healthy and engaged children. Our programs tap into a baby’s natural curiosity and enhances his or her growth through actions designed to encourage Brain, Social, Emotional, Physical and Behavioral Development; while aiding communication, language and literacy.
Brain Development
Our Infant Childcare Programs are designed to engage infants and provide each one with the stimulation that is so crucial for early brain development. Our teachers ensure that each child:
- Responds to music and experiments with vocalization and sounds
- Explores simple art materials and shows preference for visuals
- Shows interest in rhymes, finger plays and stories with props
Social & Emotional Development
We provide every child with a nurturing experience that not only caters to their emotional needs but also enhances their ability to create healthy bonds with family members and caregivers. Our teachers observe to see if each child:
- Responds to their image and name
- Makes sounds, facial expressions or body movements to express simple emotions of contentment or discontentment
- Responds to negative and positive reactions and observes peers who are experiencing a need or discomfort
Physical & Behavioral Development
Our infant care programs provide learning centers equipped with educational and developmentally-appropriate toys and activities designed to promote learning in a fun and exciting environment. Expanding the imagination and strengthening the muscles is a big part of our programs, so we ensure that each child:
- Initiates active play and engages in some physical activity
- Responds to what they hear, see, touch, taste and smell
- Demonstrates beginning coordination and balance, often with support
- Selects an item of interest by pointing and/or reaching for objects
- Examines a toy, rattle, or object for a brief period
- Repeats actions to make something happen again
Communication, Language & Literacy
Our teachers constantly monitor each child for the beginning steps of communication by observing if they are:
- Responding to simple direction, words, phrases and familiar people
- Communicating feelings through facial expressions
- Showing interest in books and reaching for books to explore through touch
