At the infant school all educative labor is dependent on the children´s primarily needs: sleep, diet, hygiene, affection, etc, without to forget those invigorating activities, which can develop all children´s physical and intellectual abilities. Activities realized at this stage must be educational and training and they involve various types of works, such as to change diapers or to tell a tale. Work at this stage has the main aim of the children´s socialization, it is said, to get them used to live with other people, to answer collectively to the adults´ slogans and to respect the educators´rules. Relationships must be warm,in a setting where children feel them loved and at the same time, they can show warm and in this way, they will achieved a complet development. Children must feel themselves caring to can build a positive portray of themselves. At the occupational centre, educators work to increase the personal and social competence and therefore, the improvement of the quality of life of people with intellectual disability who live in San Clemente and its region. Actions carried out, will be directed at to facilitate the access to the employment level more conciliatory that can be reached each person, taking into account individuality and specificity of each one of them. This centre will realize several occupational activities which the aim to promote and to streghten our users' skills, taking into account the degree of development of each one of them.
