The Early Foundations Experience

Responsive, developmentally informed support for your baby's earliest months.

Designed for newborns and young infants from birth through approximately four months, with recommendations individualized according to the baby's development, health, temperament, and family needs.

The Early Foundations Experience supports newborns and young infants during a period shaped by feeding, sleep, regulation, attachment, physical development, and rapidly changing family rhythms. Rather than expecting extended periods of structured play, this experience thoughtfully integrates development into everyday care, including feeding, positioning, tummy time, sensory engagement, rest, connection, and responsive interaction.

"The baby may sleep during part of the visit, and that time still supports the experience."
