Infant Program

From birth, babies are primed and ready to soak up all the wonders life can offer. Every day is a brave new frontier and another opportunity to learn. Whether it’s moving, communicating or exploring their surroundings, their world is full of awe. What a privilege it is for us at New Leaf centres to help your child with this most important journey.

We aim to make the transition between home and our centre as seamless as possible. Your child will have his or her own special Educator, or primary caregiver, who will be responsible for his or her care, activities and will support your child in feeling safe and secure in their new environment. Our Educators work closely with you to find out about your home routine, your child’s sleep and feeding patterns. We’re also in constant communication as your child’s needs change. To support this critical and exciting stage of a baby’s development, we aim to provide a peaceful environment that is physically safe, cognitively challenging and emotionally nurturing through the sensitive observations of our caring and qualified Educators. On a practical note, we provide a sleeping nursery, cot linen, cotton blankets, organic milk and healthy snacks ,Of course, you can visit your child for cuddles during the day or to breastfeed – our open door policy means you are welcome at any time.
