Thornhill Child Care - DOVER Centre
Infant Care Program

Our infant care is based on the principal that each infant is unique and requires unique care to meet his/her individual and developmental needs.  We provide many developmentally appropriate toys and interest centres for infants to explore, experiment and develop their skills at their own pace.

An infant's individual needs are met as they arise.  We stimulate infant development by providing attentive and loving care, many one-to-one interactions and by extending and initiating their play.

The infant program includes provisions for feeding, diapering, sleeping and indoor/outdoor play.  Infants will be taken outside at least once a day, weather permitting.  Reports of their activities are sent home daily.

Our centre provides freshly cooked baby food for your child and we modify our weekly menu to meet the needs of the older infants.  Homo milk is always available for those 12 months and older.

Parents are required to supply:

  • Diapers, powders/ointments
  • Hairbrush
  • 2 bottles/sippy cups
  • 2 full sets of clothing
  • Formula (for infants under 12 months)
  • Baby cereal (Pablum)
