Good Samaritan Infant Program

The Good Samaritan Infant Program was opened in January 1997, in response to the community need for quality infant care. Our program is licensed for 8 infants 6 weeks to 2 years. The ratio of the infant room is 1 to 4. The program is based on the individual needs of the children. Teachers take time to learn about each child’s routines at home and use that information to find a routine at the center that meets each child’s needs.

The children are exposed to activities during the day that will encourage development in all areas. Teachers work to provide activities that are interesting and challenge children enough to encourage moving to the next step without frustrating our little ones.

Each day our infants are exposed to many enriching activities. Teachers sing and dance with children, read stories, talk to the infants, provide outdoor playtime, and much more. All activities are done with children when the opportunity presents itself during the day. Teachers, when not engaged in care giving activities such as feeding or diapering will sit with children and take the opportunity to sing or play with the children.
