Older Toddlers
Our Older Toddler Classroom is designed to nurture curiosity, independence, and essential developmental skills for children at this exciting stage. As toddlers grow, they become more expressive, social, and eager to explore the world around them. Our caring teachers support language development, fine and gross motor skills, problem-solving, and early social interactions through engaging activities and hands-on learning. With a focus on fostering confidence and independence, we provide a safe and stimulating environment where older toddlers can thrive, learn, and prepare for the next steps in their early childhood journey!
