Young Toddlers - 12 - 23 months and MUST be walking
This program is available for 2-5 days per week and for any hours that fit the needs of the individual child and family. The room setting is developmentally appropriate for the youngest children with small chairs, tables, cabinets, and numerous toys to manipulate. This program is based on the concept that play is the work of the child. Play is learning and contributes to the development of every aspect of the child’s growth and love of learning. The teachers in this program are specially trained to work with the youngest child. They use songs, music, stories, creative movement, and sensory experiences to enhance the child’s development.
