Your little one’s first steps in learning and discovery

Infant Program

At The Growing Tree, we understand that every baby is unique. That’s why each infant follows their own personalized feeding and nap schedule, provided by parents and carefully followed by our teachers. All babies nap in full-sized cribs for comfort and safety.

Throughout the day, our infants are nurtured with enriching activities that support growth, curiosity, and connection—never screen time. Instead, your baby will always be engaged, stimulated, and cared for in a loving environment.

Meals & Healthy Eating

Babies follow their individualized feeding schedules, and when they begin eating solid foods, mealtime becomes a fun and social experience. They enjoy eating while overlooking the beautiful Roslyn Duck Pond with their friends, encouraging healthy eating habits. From spoon-feeding to finger foods, our teachers provide guidance and support every step of the way.

We also proudly support breastfeeding families. Our infant classroom has a freezer for storing breast milk, and teachers follow careful procedures for defrosting and feeding. Parents are always welcome to use the rocking chair in the classroom to nurse during drop-off, pick-up, or anytime they’d like to be with their baby.

Health & Safety

Meals & Healthy Eating

Meals & Healthy Eating

Cleaning is our top priority in the Infant Program. Any toy that touches a baby’s mouth is immediately sanitized, and changing tables are lined with paper and then cleaned with a special solution after every use. All bottles, food, and personal items are clearly labeled with each child’s first and last name and stored in individual baskets in our refrigerator. We also maintain separate sinks for food preparation and washing, ensuring the highest level of safety and hygiene every day

Throughout the day, our caregivers provide lots of love, language, and interaction, creating a warm environment where your baby can thrive.
