Infant Services

 Even though infants are young and vulnerable their brains are developing at a rapid pace as they are introduced to new places, people, and sensory experiences. They sleep most of the time so their brain can make sense of all the external and internal experiences throughout the day. During sleep their brain is organizing by growing and developing new pathways.
