Most infant daycare programs in Baton Rouge accept babies as young as 6 weeks old. Some facilities accept infants starting at 8 or 12 weeks. Louisiana sets specific staff-to-infant ratio requirements — typically one caregiver for every 3 to 4 infants — to ensure proper care and safety.

  • Safe sleep practices following AAP guidelines
  • Clean, age-appropriate environment with proper sanitization
  • Consistent daily routines for feeding, napping, and play
