In daycare terms, when is my child considered a toddler?

Most providers consider a child to be a toddler, or move them to the "toddler room" between 12-18 months depending on the size of the program and the needs of the population they serve.

Toddler Program

Toddler daycare caters specifically to the needs of toddlers, typically aged 1-3 years, providing a program that encourages their rapid development and curiosity. These daycares focus on activities that promote motor skills, language acquisition, and social interaction, ensuring toddlers engage in play that is both educational and enjoyable. The environment is structured yet flexible, allowing children to explore and learn at their own pace. Caregivers are attentive to the unique needs of toddlers, providing guidance and care as they navigate this critical stage of growth. Toddler daycare is an option for parents seeking dedicated care that supports the developmental milestones of their young children.

What do 2 years old learn in daycare?

The specific curriculum may vary from program to program, but two year olds in daycare learn a lot by socializing with their peers. From learning to share to talking about feelings, this age is all about social-emotional development and friendship.

At what age does a child start a toddler program in daycare?

The exact age may vary, depending on how many children are in the group or your state’s guidelines, but typically a toddler program begins anywhere from one to two years old. Some programs may separate toddlers into "young toddlers" from one to eighteen months where others may group them all together.

Is daycare good for toddlers?

In daycare, toddlers learn to be independent, how to share and be a good friend, work on potty training, and may even begin early pre-academic skills. So, yes! Daycare is definitely good for toddlers.
