Curriculum and Development
Lorrae brings attentive care, clear communication, and a trauma-informed lens to each visit, helping families feel more grounded, informed, and supported at home.
Approaches to Exploration
Newborns learn through closeness, sensory input, and responsive caregiving, and parents are supported in noticing and responding to those early cues.
Cognitive Development
Simple routines, soothing interactions, and attuned care help babies build early awareness while parents gain confidence in reading their infant’s needs.
Language Development
Conversation, eye contact, and responsive presence support early communication and help strengthen connection between parent and baby.
Physical Development
Positioning, movement, and gentle body-aware support can encourage comfort, regulation, and healthy early development.
Social-Emotional Development
A calm, consistent environment helps babies feel secure while giving parents space to build trust, attachment, and confidence.
