FAQ

The Toddler Program emphasizes providing ever expanding social, physical, and intellectual opportunities for the young and older toddler to challenge themselves. The classroom provides simple daily living exercises designed to meet their growing need for independence (i.e., "I'll do it myself!"). Toilet training is begun when parents and staff agree that the child is ready. Constant observation followed by appropriate responses and additions to the environment to meet her/his ever-expanding needs for self-development.

As the individual toddler shows his/her need for more independent activities, they are introduced to more challenging exercises that support success in her/his endeavors. This process lays a foundation in all areas for future learning that builds confidence, problem solving skills, and social skills. As the child grows in the environment, they may be ready for more complex spoken language.
