Nido (Toddlers)

Our Nido program ensures that toddlers develop their expressive language skills, experience empathy, engage in pretend-play, and practice social roles as they navigate their first relationships and begin to create their own identities. Educators in our Nido classrooms work to build strong bonds not only between children and teachers, but between teachers and parents as well. This partnership with your child’s teacher, along with excellent communication about your toddler’s development, results in a confident, secure toddler with the confidence they need to express themselves and grow their vocabulary.

2 Year Olds

We offer opportunities for children to encounter challenges that promote individual identity and collaborative play. In addition to emotional growth, the physical growth of fine motor skills provides two-year-olds with greater manipulative control and an increased desire for independence. As your two-year-old discovers all the things they can do, they will want to communicate with others and to do more things on their own. Our educators understand this and use various sensorial, fine motor, and gross motor experiences to encourage your child’s literacy and comprehension skills and desire for independence. These experiences also allow your child to interact with peers, become more social and begin to develop emotional control.

Beginners

The Beginner program, for children ages 2-3, introduces more routine and structure to the children’s activities and schedule. Your child will build vocabulary, learn foundational mathematical skills, and will be encouraged to use simple reasoning to explain everyday occurrences. The concepts of social studies, diversity, and Spanish are introduced as our Beginners examine and explore the world around them.

Toddlers

Our Toddler program provides opportunities for children to physically explore their world inside the classroom and on the playground. They also begin more structured activities, such as learning centers and circle time. Your toddler will begin learning concepts of color and size, build their vocabulary, and explore foundational scientific concepts. Our teachers understand the challenges that one-year-olds face in a social learning setting, and have experience in helping them adjust to the give and take of the classroom environment.

Preschool

Toddler Classroom

As toddlers are rapidly developing both physically and cognitively, the Toddler classroom is where their natural curiosity is fostered, and their language and communication skills are nurtured. A lifelong love of learning starts early, and we believe in providing brand-new learners with the tools they need to be successful. In the Toddler classroom, our proprietary education program, Wonder of Learning™, comes to life as expert teachers harness children’s natural curiosity, guiding them to explore the world around them through hands-on learning, play and asking questions. Teachers support your child's social-emotional growth while helping them develop important physical skills. Your little one will build social awareness, form meaningful connections with others and have plenty of opportunities to strengthen essential skills like persistence and independence.
