Toddler Care and Education

1 - 2 years old

Energy and excitement are a natural part of growth and learning. In our toddler classes, we channel that energy into positive learning experiences, with room to move and explore. We go beyond daycare to provide nurturing guidance as they develop skills and master milestones.

In this program, children are provided with:

Stimulating classroom environments

Toddler Classroom Learning Centers

For the love of inspiring curiosity
Your little one is now big enough to walk and explore everything within reach. Our Toddler Program gives them plenty of room to do so safely as they begin to communicate, learn more skills, and develop their personalities. This is more than daycare! Our Learn as We Grow curriculum helps teachers to guide their classroom explorations with purpose and endless encouragement.

Communication Center

The foundations of language grow with each book, puppet show, and dress-up performance. The Communication Center is where toddlers discover the art of storytelling as they listen carefully, interact with friends, and begin to make marks on paper.

Creation Center

“What happens if I dip this sponge in the paint?” Toddlers have big ideas. We like to give them the space to explore the answer. The Creation Center includes plenty of hands-on materials your child can use to create their own colorful work of art.

Discovery Center

Engage in the process of problem-solving by comparing, arranging, or sorting materials. While investigating the Discovery Center, toddlers learn early math and science concepts through trial and error. Explore patterns and make observations like a scientist.

Imagination Center

If the beat is catchy, you’ll catch your toddler dancing! The Imagination Center gives children a chance to experience music, movement, and pretend play as a form of self-expression. They’ll love to explore and dig into the dress-up bin with their friends.

Invention Center

Let’s build a tower or balance objects. Fine and gross motor skills get a good workout in the Invention Center as curious toddlers assemble and connect various materials to create solutions. Why did it fall over? What happens if I stack this piece? Try it and find out!

Reflection Center

A calm space to take a break from all the action in the classroom. Toddlers are encouraged to use the Reflection Center to relax their bodies and self-regulate. Invite a friend to join you or grab a favorite book to enjoy alone. These quiet moments make a big difference.

Toddlers Program FAQs

Enrollment is offered year-round based on each family’s needs and classroom availability.

Each day, your child should arrive with these items: - At least one complete outfit change (including socks) - Enough prepared and labeled formula or breast milk (if applicable) - Jar food and infant cereal (if applicable) - Layers to accommodate indoor/outdoor temperature changes All items must be labeled with the child’s first and last names. Used belongings must be taken home nightly and laundered or sanitized.

Toddlers spend the morning exploring the classroom through intentionally planned learning experiences. A morning outdoor time promotes physical activity and fosters a love of the outdoors. A midday healthy lunch is served followed by rest time for children to relax and recharge. The afternoon begins with a healthy snack, and then children engage in small group play and learning in the indoor and outdoor learning environments.

Social skills are at the core of our teaching in early childhood education. The environment is structured to promote small group learning for children to play and explore together. Children learn through interacting with and watching each other, and teachers model how to communicate needs and understand the needs of others.
