Toddlers (12-24 months)

Exploration takes center stage when your child enters our toddler classroom. We provide this active preschool age group with the freedom to learn independently and interact with their environment firsthand. We encourage our toddlers to grab a toy, look through a book, and point to objects of interest by keeping educational content at eye level. Your toddler will achieve their childhood developmental milestones through our fun-filled exploration centers and receive the support of our caregivers through every lesson.

While our educators maintain a watchful eye, your toddler will learn to:

Easily transition to new environments or activities

Crawl, climb and walk to explore new objects

Learn about feelings and how to express them

Explore the classroom

Our preschool classrooms are designed with your toddler in mind. At this age, your little one is on the move, ready to explore every environment. This requires a well-organized space with opportunities for teacher-directed lessons and early childhood-initiated activities. More importantly, they learn in an environment where self-confidence and discovery are at the core of our preschool curriculum. By maintaining a safe and sanitary space, our children enjoy developmentally appropriate activities without distraction.
