The correct answer is the s ensorimotor stage of cognitive development.

According to Piaget's theory of cognitive development, she is in the sensorimotor stage of development. During this stage of cognitive development-which occurs at age 0-2 years in infants - infants develop something known as object permanence. This means that infants develop the ability to understand that objects continue to exist even if they are hidden from them or no longer in view.
