A safe place for your infant means you feel sound

It’s indeed a major leap to leave your infant in the care of someone else. You can trust Little Leaderz Day Care to provide a nurturing environment for your baby. Our teachers listen to and communicate with parents to ensure that the requirements of both the child and the parents are satisfied. Additionally, we pay close attention to your baby as he or she learns to roll over, crawl, walk, grin, babble, and wave hello!

Our Approach to Infant Care

Our infant program is child-centered and flexible. We understand that infants have unique rhythms, especially in their early months, so we follow their lead while providing gentle structure. Our approach balances nurture, stimulation, and rest—supporting natural growth at every stage. Through our infants care program in Irvine, California, we create a secure, engaging space where your baby can thrive from the very beginning.

Daily Schedule:

The infant program is designed to stimulate and nurture your infants’ minds while allowing them to rest and recharge. Do know that there is no such thing as a “normal day” in an infant classroom because young infants choose their own timetables! But as your baby grows, we will continue to guide them toward a more planned and regulated routine to ensure consistent feeding and rest times.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I look for when choosing infant daycare for my baby?

Look for a nurturing environment, clean space, trained caregivers, and activities that support early growth. We make sure all of these are in place.

What do babies actually do all day in infant daycare?

They eat, nap, and explore through music, movement, stories, and sensory play. We make each activity meaningful for their stage of development.

How does daycare handle nap and feeding schedules for infants?

Infants follow their own rhythm at first. Over time, we help them ease into consistent rest and feeding routines.

How can infant daycare support early learning?

Daycare encourages development through hands-on play, bonding, and activities that build fine and gross motor skills. We use every moment as a chance to help them grow.

How do daycares keep parents informed about their baby’s day?

Most centers share updates on meals, naps, and diapers. We send regular updates and welcome parent communication.

What happens if my baby cries a lot in daycare?

Crying is normal, especially at first. We comfort babies with gentle care and help them adjust at their own pace.
