Daycare Daily Schedule – Room Routines

At Kids Club, we have certain room routines that educators follow. The routine may vary depending on current events and activities. Having a daycare plan in each room allows for smoother transitions into new activities, meals and rest time. The routine is available to families, so you know what your child is doing at certain times.

The Rainforest Room for our Babies (6 Weeks - 2 Year Room)

Creating interesting, inviting, and engaging learning settings for infants and toddlers is important, but this is sometimes easier said than done. Educators can find it hard to find the right balance between creating the right environment for the child’s age and stage of development and letting the child have the freedom to explore, test, and improve their new skills.

At Kids Club, we understand that when children can build stable, trustworthy connections with caring and responsive people, they can better adapt to and learn in surroundings where they always feel safe and at home. Children in the Nursery Room age range require close supervision, positive direction, and exciting experiences while they navigate a period of rapid growth and change.

Throughout the day you will receive reports on meals, nappy changes, sleep records and get glimpses of your child’s day via our Kids Club App.
