Toddler Program

Every day in the life of a toddler is a true adventure with our teachers there acting as guides while providing loving care. We pay a great deal of attention to the environment, making sure that it’s inviting, engaging, and safe for many little explorers. Toddlers have a theme based curriculum, which allows for new and unique areas to explore each week. Our teachers engage the children in story times, singing, creative play, and a great deal of active play. Daily interaction includes Sign Language and Literacy Time.
