What Makes Our Infant Program Special

Our infant rooms are calm, safe, and purposefully designed for babies at the earliest stage of development. Small group sizes mean each baby receives the close attention they need, while our caregivers are trained to respond to every cue, from hunger and sleep signals to the need for comfort and connection. We use age-appropriate sensory materials, soft music, and responsive interaction to stimulate development gently and naturally. Parents receive daily updates through the Kid Reports app, so you always know how your little one is doing throughout the day.

Consistent, Responsive Caregiving

Our infant caregivers build real bonds with each baby. By maintaining consistent routines and responding promptly to every need, we help infants develop the sense of safety and trust that is foundational to all future growth.

Developmentally Appropriate Stimulation

From tummy time and sensory play to gentle music and visual exploration, every activity in our infant room is intentionally designed to support brain development, motor growth, and early social connection.

Parent Communication Through Kid Reports

We use the Kid Reports app to keep parents informed throughout the day, including feeding times, diaper changes, nap logs, photos, and milestone moments. You're always connected, even when you're not here.

Flexible Scheduling for Working Families

Our 5:30 AM to midnight hours mean we can serve parents who work early shifts, late shifts, or non-traditional schedules, something very few infant daycare providers in Lakewood are equipped to offer.

DSHS, Tribal and Military Subsidies Accepted

Over 98% of our enrolled families receive financial assistance. We accept WCCC through DSHS, Tribal subsidy, and Military Childcare Aware, and we'll help guide you through the enrollment process step by step.

What to Expect

A Typical Day for Your Infant at Just Like Home

Every day in our infant program begins with a warm welcome. Your baby's personal schedule, including feeding, napping, and playtime, is followed closely by our team. Throughout the day, infants engage in age-appropriate sensory activities, receive plenty of holding and interaction, and rest in a safe, monitored sleep environment. At pickup, you'll receive a full daily summary through the Kid Reports app covering feedings, diapers, sleep, activities, and any special moments worth sharing.
