Infant Daily Journals
We cherish the trust, you as parents have placed in us. Your interest
in your child's quality of day can be communicated directly with
staff, or through our Infant Daily Journals.
Each child will have a journal. It is located in the diapering/change
area. The infant Journal shows information about your experiences
with your child the previous evening and in the morning. You can
also give us information about special health concerns, medications
and special requests/
During your child's day we will complete the other portion of the
journal with notes on diapering, nutrition, rest and information
regarding your child's day which may include curriculum, health
and accomplishments.
Things to bring...
A blanket and cuddly toy for nap time, soother if needed...
Items that represent your child and their interests to hang outside
our door.
Pictures of your family for your child's family album..
Four changes of clothing, including, shirt, pants, socks...
