Infant Care
A Safe Place To Explore and Play!
Non-mobile Rooms
For younger infants who are still working on mastering sitting up on their own, developing their neck muscles, lifting their head up, grasping and reaching for toys.
Mobile Rooms
For infants that are able to roll around, pull themselves up, learning or already crawling, or taking their first steps!
Walker Rooms
For confident walkers who love running outside on the infant playground, are taking one nap a day, and have graduated from a bottle to a sippy cup.
Your Baby’s Day at Action Day
Your baby’s day includes close time with primary caregivers and playmates to nurture social and emotional development as well as developmentally-appropriate materials and equipment to encourage small and large motor development.
We delight infants with daily activities planned around weekly themes. Look forward to fun activities like a multi-child buggy ride.

Please let us know if there are any special instructions for the day by filling out a Daily Infant Care Record. This will help inform the Primary Caregiver of how they can best meet your child’s needs at the center. The Primary Caregiver will fill out the form throughout the day with important information about your child, which you will then receive at pickup.
Needs and Service Plan
Your infant’s needs are changing rapidly. The Needs and Services Plan is updated quarterly to provide information for their primary Caregiver. This form will help meet your child’s needs at the center and work closely with your child’s routines.
What to WearWhat to Wear
Each day will be filled with both indoor and outdoor activities. It is important that you provide your child with washable play clothes that can withstand food spills, paint, sand, and water play. Please be sure to label all articles of clothing that might be removed throughout the day (i.e. jackets, sweaters, hats, and any extra clothing).
In addition, your child’s shoes need to cover his or her whole foot and must be worn at all times. If your child loses any of his or her items, please check with the school’s director. All locations keep a lost-and-found basket for a period of three weeks.
School HoursSchool Hours
The complete school hours are 7:00am to 6:00pm, Monday through Friday. Full-day and half-day programs are available, but please note that there will be overtime charges assessed for each 15 minutes you are late.
Rest PeriodsRest Periods
Your child’s day will be very full, so children up to the age of five have a daily scheduled rest period. For children ages birth through 12 months, the rest period is scheduled according to their “Needs and Service Plan.” Infants are offered a morning and/or afternoon nap.
Action Day Schools provides all linens, sheets, and blankets for infants from birth through 18 months old.
Meals and NutritionMeals and Nutrition
Our children receive two nutritious snacks each day. One will be provided in the morning, and another will be provided in the afternoon. A detailed snack menu will be posted at each location.
Breakfast brought from home will be served when the center opens at 7am. However, if a child misses breakfast for any reason, the morning snack is provided at 9am.
For an additional charge, we offer a daily, nutritious hot lunch at most of our locations. Refrigerators and microwaves are also available at each center for lunch brought from home.
Please do not send food items that could cause choking such as:
- Peanuts and/or whole nuts
- Whole grapes
- Honey
- Popcorn
- Chunks of hot dogs
- Fruits with seeds or with tough skins
Individually prepared formula bottles must be brought in daily, not in one large container.
Breast milk should be thawed and ready to serve.
Please label and date your child’s bottle each day.
