Our Programs
Infants & Toddlers
Not only quality child care, but an exciting learning experience.
Happy Faces Forever, Day Care & Learning Center nurtures Infants and Toddlers from 12 weeks to 24 months old. We understand that the experiences that an infant has during the early months of life are critical to healthy brain development. Our establishment has designated a special nursery area that’s designed to create a “second home” like atmosphere for infants and toddlers. Babies need to feel loved and cared for, they need to be where they can trust their surroundings and caregivers. Special attention and meaningful relationships with parents is one of our top priorities here at Happy Faces Forever.
Each and every baby is very important to us and we know that every baby is different. That is why, we generate a schedule and feeding plan that meets your baby’s specific needs.
