Infant Daycare (6 weeks to 1 year)

At The Sunshine House of Greeley, your baby will explore and learn in a nurturing, loving environment that provides the warmth and security your infant is used to receiving at home. In our infant daycare, we utilize the primary caregiver system. A specific teacher will be your baby’s main caregiver and will work closely with you to provide consistency with your existing feeding, playing and sleeping schedules. While your baby is playing, your infant is also learning. Using our individualized Brain Connect Infant Curriculum, each week your caregiver will create a lesson plan for your baby, tailored to your infant’s interests and development.

Our toddler daycare program is designed to respond to this unique stage of development. Your toddler will participate in fun learning activities and creative playtime that stimulates the mind and encourages exploration, while introducing structure and an established routine. When your toddler is developmentally ready to start potty-training, we’ll partner with you to create consistency from school to home. Our toddler daycare program helps your child build invaluable skills, such as language development, fine motor skills, analytical skills, positive self-image, creativity, increased attention span, communication and social integration.

Meet Our Director, Maija Wood

Hi there! My name is Maija Wood. I've been in the Early Childhood Education setting for nearly 8 years. I started my journey working in a small center as a toddler teacher, and then worked at a variety of schools as a teacher in classrooms ranging from infants to Pre-K students. I have also worked as an Assistant Director, Program Director, and Center Director in both for profit and nonprofit centers.

I graduated with my AAS in Early Childhood Education from Aims Community College and am nearly finished with my BA in Early Childhood Administration from Purdue University Global. 

When I'm not working, I enjoy going to karaoke events, reading anything I can get my hands on, and writing. I've even published a book, with more coming in the future. At the end of the day, there's nothing better than snuggling up with my two cats with a good book.

Being a director isn't just a job for me; it is a passion and an honor. I devote as much time and energy as it takes to ensure that all children, families, and staff can have an experience full of growth, happiness, care, and fun every single day at The Sunshine House.
