Infant Childcare & Early Education
A Nurturing Start for Your Baby’s Bright Future
We’ve created a warm, secure, and stimulating environment where your baby can grow, explore, and thrive! Our infant nursery is thoughtfully designed to provide comfort while encouraging curiosity and early learning.
Your baby’s primary caregiver focuses on their individual needs, working with you to maintain a consistent routine that mirrors your home schedule—including bottle times, naps, and playtime.
But here’s the best part—while your little one plays, they’re also learning! Our exclusive Brain Connect Infant Curriculum helps your baby reach key developmental milestones, from motor skills to language, cognitive growth, and emotional development.
Brain Connect Infant Curriculum
Your baby is unique, and so is our infant curriculum. This exclusive program is based on 5 key areas of early brain development:
✅ Critical Thinking – Encouraging problem-solving and curiosity
✅ Language – Building early communication skills
✅ Movement – Strengthening motor skills
✅ Relationships – Developing social and emotional connections
✅ Sensory Exploration – Enhancing touch, sight, sound, and taste experiences
We’ve created thousands of play-based activities designed around these five areas. Each week, your baby’s primary caregiver will develop a personalized lesson plan with at least six activities tailored to your child’s interests and growth. Lesson plans are updated weekly and posted in the nursery so you can stay informed.
A Resarch-Based Approach: Creative Curriculum
Our Brain Connect Infant Curriculum is guided by Creative Curriculum®, a nationally recognized, research-backed early education program. It’s one of the few curriculums approved by every State Board of Education in the country, ensuring your baby gets the highest quality start.
What’s Included in Our Infant Care Program?
🍼 Tummy Time for Stronger Muscles
Most infants spend a lot of time on their backs—in cribs, car seats, and strollers. Tummy Time allows your baby to lie on their stomach while awake and supervised, helping to:
✔ Strengthen arm, chest, and neck muscles
✔ Develop essential motor skills
✔ Prevent flat head syndrome
✔ Build strength for sitting, rolling, crawling, and walking
🖐 Baby Sign Language for Early Communication
Before your baby can speak, they can communicate through sign language! In our program, we introduce simple baby signs to help infants express their needs, emotions, and desires. Ask your teacher about these signs so you can use them at home too!

Family Reviews!
"I do not have enough good things to say about the Sunshine House. It is more than a daycare; it is a FAMILY. While the staff are incredibly caring, they go above and beyond to treat every child as if they were their own. I really could not ask for more from a group of people whom, I can tell, truly care about my son."
-Tyler Smith
