#1 INFANT CARE


Why is CDP #1 in Infant Care?  We have the best teachers and the best setting!  At CDP we look after every detail in caring for your infant:

 *** We have a private Mother's Room for nursing or just cuddle time during your lunch break or whenever you can stop in for a visit.  Our Mother's Room features a padded rocking chair, table area, cd player and magazines for relaxing.  The room is equipped with outlets for pumping equipment and other necessities.

 *** Our staff is very experienced in the professional child care field and they receive extensive training every year to enhance the infant experience and strengthen their expertise.  Every one of our infant teachers is also a mother, bringing an additional level of expertise and experience to the environment.

 *** Our infant rooms are designed around the child, to provide a soft and loving physical environment, as well as provide appropriate levels of stimulation for optimal growth and development.

 *** CDP utilizes the country's top curriculum program in every classroom, beginning with our infants.  The infants at CDP enjoy a well rounded and enriching experience while receiving the highest level of love and care in a professional and secure setting!

Schedule a tour at our facility today to see why our infant rooms are so highly recommended by past and current families!
