TODDLERS

TODDLER Program AGES 13-23 MONTHS 

Our teachers provide a safe, warm, nurturing and balanced environment. Every week focuses on a different theme that each child discovers. Teachers initiate a variety of activities for children to develop cognitive skills. We stimulate children and have them experiment with new ways to meet goals. We help them learn to evaluate, compare, and understand. We boost their creativity through individual expression and collective interactions. Our activities help them foster self-awareness, self-esteem and consideration for others.
TODDLER Program AGES 2-3 YEARS 
Every week focuses on a different theme that each child discovers. Teachers multiply a variety of activities for toddlers to develop cognitive skills. At this toddler age group, the classroom centers are more spatially defined, so that toddlers can slowly be introduced to a preschool setting. We continue to stimulate toddlers and have them experiment and help them find new ways to meet goals. We help them learn to evaluate, compare, and understand. We boost their creativity through individual expression and collective interactions. Our activities help them foster self-awareness, self-esteem and consideration for others.

Toddlers | ages 1 - 2 years | Program highlights 
Our certified teachers continue to build on the skills that were developed in the first 12 months and expand onto newer, more advanced goals.

At this age, it is extremely important to begin to foster each child’s independence, so that they can start to accomplish some goals on their own. One of the most important goals during this developmental stage is being able to feed themselves - “Increase strength and control of small muscles in the hand (PM 10.5 q)”.
​
This training needs to be consistent to ensure that each toddler can master the goal before moving onto the next stage of development. With our play-based curriculum, our teachers can expand on these goals. For example, they place various theme related toys throughout the classroom, and ask each toddler to simply pick them up. This allows our teacher to expand on the same goal, while integrating the daily curriculum.
Toddlers | ages 2 - 3 years | Program highlights 
Our curriculum continues to foster their independence and further develop the skills they have previously acquired. In this toddler age range, more curriculum is integrated into the lesson plans on a regular basis.

Topics such as number identification, letter identification, and counting will start to be introduced on a daily basis. Our curriculum allows our teachers to introduce these topics in a fun way for the children. Learning is made easier through play time. 

Another key element of toddler age range 2 to 3 lessons is introducing potty-training and best hygiene practices. In order to properly master the skill of potty-training, our teachers have a consistent routine that they follow with our toddlers every day.

We have developed a toddler curriculum to allow our certified teachers to follow a daily routine and schedule, while introducing teachable moments. Our curriculum is aimed to fully prepare your toddler for a successful transition into the preschool program. ​
Safety
TODDLERS ARE ACTIVE AND THEY NEED PROPER GUIDANCE AND SUPERVISION TO SUCCEED IN SKILL ACQUISITION.

OUR PLAYGROUNDS AND CLASSROOMS ARE DESIGNED TO IDEALLY SUIT THEIR AGE GROUP. WE ALWAYS MAINTAIN A PROPER TEACHER-CHILD RATIO.
​
WE HAVE EXTENSIVE HYGENE PROCEDURES WITH HAND-WASHING, SANITIZATION AND DIAPER CHANGING PROCEDURES IN PLACE. We WORK TO ENSURE that all OUR TODDLERS REMAIN HEALTHY AND SAFE, WHILE MINIMIZING THE SPREAD OF GERMS.
