At First Path Daycare in Calmar, our Baby Care program focuses on rapid development and critical bonding through a “Primary Caregiving” model. By pairing your infant with a dedicated educator, we build a secure, loving foundation. Our “shoes-off” infant room provides a clean, safe space for tummy time, crawling, and first steps. To ensure a stress-free transition, we also closely mirror your home routine for naps and feeding schedules.
Explore the core features of our infant program, designed to keep your baby safe, engaged, and deeply connected to you.

No. We believe infants should follow their own biological clock. We work with you to maintain the feeding and nap schedule you have already established at home.
Parents are asked to provide diapers, wipes, any specific creams, changes of clothes, and bottles/food. We provide the love, the learning, and the safe environment!
Our educators use gentle techniques including rocking, soft singing, and sensory distraction. Because of our primary care model, our teachers quickly learn your baby’s unique “cues” and what comforts them best.
