Overview

Infants & Waddlers

Infant care at Creative Beginnings begins at six weeks. This is the most delicate stage of your child's life, and our Waddlers room is built around that: low ratios, familiar faces, and a space designed for safe sensory exploration. Tummy time, reading sessions, soft music, and storytime fill the day. Your infant's first words come long before speech, through sound, facial expression, and touch, and our caregivers are trained to read and respond to every one of them.
