Best Emergency Childcare in Mishawaka, IN

Toddlers

Toddlers need the nurturing and encouragement of an understanding adult. At Young Minds Development Center our teachers celebrate a toddler’s sense of curiosity and engage in active learning with them throughout the day. Children will begin to use their senses and motor skills to explore unfamiliar objects, events and phenomena. Teacher's will present our toddlers with simple problems in order for them to use "trial and error". Your child will begin to develop the questioning stage, Asking the 5 W’s Who, Why, What, When and Where? Our teachers will allow children to use their motor skills to explore their environment which fosters play and creative arts, using familiar objects and situations to process their daily experiences.

Early Toddlers

Our commitment to early learning and education begins in our Early Toddler learning program with the relationship between our teachers and parents. Together, we develop a daily schedule that best fits the needs of your little one. This important, trusting relationship continues as your child grows and continues to develop. We believe that young children thrive in an environment, like ours, that is especially responsive to individual needs. Our loving teachers will nurture your child with kind words, warm smiles, and gentle touches to assure opportunities for development.

Infants

Families love the balance of nurturing care and milestone development in this program. In a warm, safe, stimulating classroom, children have a primary caregiver to attend to their needs. Plus, our exclusive, milestone-focused curriculum, Learn from the Start™, was developed by our educational experts to focus on key developmental milestones specific to infants. We emphasize each child’s development, rather than specific age, because all children grow and learn at their own pace, and in their own unique way. We’re also here when you need us. Ask your school about flexible enrollment options to fit your family’s schedule.
