Infant Programs
The Lands End School’s Infant program prioritizes building trusting relationships with the children and their families. We encourage the child’s autonomy by providing age appropriate materials and activities that spark the babies’ natural curiosity and the freedom to discover and explore the things around them. Our indoor and outdoor environments are designed to aid infant development through its safe and accessible setup. The Infant program’s daily schedule is custom to the differently aged infants to allow them to sleep, eat, and play whenever they want!
