Infant Care in Somerville, NJ, That Puts Your Baby First
Yes, Even a 3 Month Old Has a Curriculum
At Celebree School of Branchburg-Somerville, each day is filled with connection and comfort. Families across Somerville, Branchburg, Raritan, Bridgewater, and surrounding communities rely on us to provide infant care that supports your baby’s earliest milestones. And while we may not expect babies to follow a syllabus, we do believe they benefit from intentional routines, warm relationships, and responsive caregivers.
From soothing feeds to language-rich interactions, everything we do lays the groundwork for a confident start in life. Many parents find us while searching for preschool or day care options later on, but care in these first months sets the tone for all the learning to come.
What’s Included in Our Infant Program
When you tour our school, we’ll walk through each element of your baby’s daily experience. Parents often appreciate these highlights:
- Every infant is paired with a primary caregiver
- Babies are rocked to sleep and held for feedings
- Daily morning check-ins: last feeding, nap, diaper changes
- Evening reports: meals, diapers, naps, play, and new discoveries
- Two dedicated infant rooms: 6 weeks–9 months and 9–18 months
- Consistent communication to ensure home and school routines align
We also support families by guiding what to bring on the first day, including necessary items like bottles, bibs, diapers, and extra clothes.
Clear Goals for Growth (Yes, Even Now)
Infant development changes quickly, which is why your baby receives a personalized plan that supports:
- Social and emotional development
- Early language experiences
- Fine and gross motor skills
- Age-appropriate sensory exploration
- Milestone observations and documentation
- Simple sign language to support communication
Our infant classrooms follow a whole-child, play-based approach that nurtures curiosity and provides the comfort they need.
A Gentle, Responsive Routine Built Just for Your Baby

Our teachers create a predictable, comforting environment where babies feel secure and understood, supported by our commitment to individualized attention and safety-first practices.
