Toddler Program

Drawing from Montessori principles, our skilled educators have created a sensory-rich world that encourages toddlers to explore and connect with their surroundings. Play becomes a guided journey where touch, movement, and interaction are paths to learning.

 

Building essential foundations and a love for learning, our teachers also instill a sense of community and belonging. An emphasis on social awareness teaches children how to listen, cooperate, and recognize feelings, helping them become responsible community members.

At the heart of this program is the nurturing of independence and the confidence to explore and inquire. When toddlers graduate to the Primary program, they do so equipped to actively in the world, carrying with them the essential skills and attitudes that cultivated at the toddler stage.
