Explorers
The growth that happens during this stage is remarkable. Your child’s brain is developing rapidly, and each day brings new opportunities to explore, learn, and grow. This is why it’s important to choose more than basic child care. You want an environment that nurtures curiosity and supports healthy development. In our Explorers program, children begin building social-emotional skills through guided group interaction, learning how to engage with peers, build relationships, and work together. Intentional play is a core part of each day, blending creativity, movement, and learning in meaningful ways. Yellow Brick Road offers academic child care through the Creative Curriculum, providing research-driven activities that support early learning and development. With thoughtful guidance from teachers, children explore their world while building a strong foundation for future success.
Wobblers
It seems impossible to think that your scooting, walking, babbling, and talking toddler was once coming home with you from the hospital. These are critical years of development, and it’s crucial that your child receives the best possible care. Yellow Brick Road doesn’t only provide exceptional child care for families, we also build an academic foundation your child will carry throughout their life. Social-emotional growth is a strong focus as toddlers begin to understand play, relationships, and human connection. Through songs, literacy activities, and engaging lessons, children continue building these skills each day. While we follow a daily routine and schedule, we recognize that every child grows at their own pace and work to meet each child where they are in a gentle, nurturing way. Our Wobblers program implements the Creative Curriculum, offering research-driven activities rooted in language development and early learning. With constant supervision, guidance, and care from our teachers, children are supported as they begin to navigate their world and build a strong foundation for future academic success.
