[Toddler Classes]
A Day Filled With Discovery
Our two toddler classrooms welcome children from approximately 18 months to three years old. At this age, children are learning so much through the simple things they do every day — talking with their teachers, playing alongside friends, trying something for themselves, and discovering what happens when they ask “why?”
Our days include a familiar group schedule with circle time, center play, creative art, and seasonal projects. We also use weekly themes based on topics that capture children’s interest. These themes give teachers opportunities to introduce new ideas while helping children practice skills that are appropriate for their age and stage of development.
Toddlers are still little, but they are also becoming increasingly independent. We encourage that growing independence by giving children opportunities to make choices, try things on their own, and participate in everyday classroom activities.
Learning Through Play
At this age, learning doesn’t always look like sitting at a desk. It can happen while building with blocks, looking through a book, creating something with paint, talking during circle time, or figuring out how to complete a puzzle.
Our teachers plan activities that introduce early concepts such as letters, numbers, shapes, and colors in ways that feel natural and enjoyable for young children.
There is also plenty of time for children to choose what interests them, both inside the classroom and outdoors.
Growing at Their Own Pace
Every toddler develops differently. Our teachers pay attention to where each child is and provide experiences that encourage their next steps.
Whether a child is learning to communicate more clearly, becoming comfortable playing with others, trying a new activity, or proudly saying, “I did it myself,” we celebrate these little moments of growing independence.
What Toddlers Experience Here
Choosing professional toddler care offers numerous benefits for both you and your growing child.
Opportunities to Be Independent
Toddlers want to do things for themselves, and we give them safe opportunities to make choices, participate in classroom routines, and practice new skills.
Time to Connect With Others
Through circle time, group activities, and everyday play, children begin learning how to communicate, take turns, share space, and build relationships with their classmates.
Creative Ways to Learn
Art projects, sensory experiences, puzzles, stories, and hands-on activities give children different ways to explore their ideas and express themselves.
Early Learning Through Everyday Play
Weekly themes and teacher-guided activities introduce early concepts such as letters, numbers, shapes, and colors without taking away the joy of simply being a toddler.
Plenty of Time Outdoors
Children have opportunities to play and explore outside, move their growing bodies, and enjoy time with their friends in our outdoor spaces.
A Classroom Where Toddlers Can Be Toddlers
We know toddlers are naturally curious. They want to touch, try, ask questions, move around, and sometimes do the same thing over and over again.
Our teachers meet them where they are. Some activities are planned and teacher-led, while other parts of the day give children the freedom to choose what they would like to explore.
The goal isn’t to rush children into the next stage. It is to give them the time, encouragement, and experiences they need to grow into it.
