Toddler Care

Ages 12 months to 24 months

Our focus on sensory and cognitive stimulation and development continues in our toddler classrooms. Toddlers are experiencing the world in exciting new ways as they begin walking, talking, exploring on their own and playing together. The combination of an enriched learning environment and personalized rather than individualized care helps toddlers learn and grow with confidence. Children learn self help skills and self regulating skills that build self-esteem to support successful social skills in the years ahead.

Our toddler rooms provide a fun and flexible environment supporting every child's need for a balanced day of stimulating activity, quiet time and small group interaction. Creative expression is vital for emotional development and our learning centers encourage toddlers to find and use the materials, toys and equipment that encourage different learning concepts. Touch and feel participation increases sensory development and cognitive activities spark their interest.

In addition to our center play and weekly themed activities, we also introduce Spanish to the 2 and 3 year olds. Our Spanish classes are taught using a curriculum based on a literacy-rich program of language and cultural instruction enhanced by music and movement.
