Toddlers
Toddler care for children ages 15 months to 33 months.
Indeed, toddlers make leaps and bounds with their communication, problem solving, fine motor movement, and social skills. That is why our Toddler program helps children thrive during this formative time.
Curious about what to expect as your toddler grows? The CDC offers a helpful guide to developmental milestones.
First of all, toddlers get plenty of time every day to play outside or visit the gym for fun activities. As a result, they practice gross motor skills and have time to make friends and play together.
For example, toddlers can play in different areas of the classroom, such as dramatic play, the book area, sensory tables, and play structures. Meanwhile, our teachers treat every child with respect, care, and the love of Christ. In addition, teachers model social skills and show children how to handle disagreements in a safe, supportive environment.
Our experienced teachers support your toddler as they begin to show readiness for toilet training. Beyond that, they also teach classroom cleanliness and personal hygiene. Likewise, children practice washing hands, taking out the trash, putting toys away, and wiping tables.
To begin with, our teachers create a language-rich toddler classroom. As a result, children grow their vocabulary through conversation, worship songs, and reading books together.
Families and teachers talk regularly at drop-off, pick-up, and through our ProCare app. Throughout the week, teachers update parents about their child’s day, upcoming events, and what they are learning in class. Also, twice a year, we share developmental assessments that cover social and emotional growth, cognition, language and literacy, fine and gross motor skills, and early math.
