Infant

The AMC infant program is committed to promoting quality infant care for children from six weeks to 12 months, based on these key concepts:

The aim of the infant program is to foster the development of basic trust and to assist in the normal development of the personality.
Basic trust develops in an environment where people respond appropriately to the infant's communication of needs to be loved, respected, and accepted.
Infants learn through their senses. They learn by watching and moving freely. Freedom to move is essential to the development of the infant's potential.
The infant is considered as a whole person and is affected by the quality of holding and feeding, as well as the quality of physical care.
Learning, which leads to independence, occurs when infants participate in their daily routines of care.
Infants must be spoken to in the language with which they will communicate.
