Hey Parents! We're 4 Star Quality Rated with our QRIS System for Extraordinary Care

Potty-Training Help for Parents Is a Huge Plus

When your growing toddler is ready, teachers help them learn to dress and undress for potty training. Your child learns to recognize potty cues and communicate their needs, so they feel proud and empowered.

Teachers Spend More Time With Your Child One-on-One

Your child is in a classroom that is at or below the state ratio for class sizes. Children are in a group with others their age and guided by teachers trained for and experienced with the toddler years.

Self-Care and Life Skills Promote Independence

Children learn and practice self-care skills like zipping and unzipping their jackets and removing and putting on shoes. Practicing self-care helps children become independent and confident to complete these essential tasks all by themselves.

Social-Emotional Learning Builds Strength of Character

Your child learns to identify and manage their emotions in a safe, supportive environment. They also know how to be part of a group that discovers and plays cooperatively and practices showing empathy and respect for others.

Funnydaffer™ & In-House Curricula Build Foundations

Your toddler learns with a skilled teacher who establishes an appropriate curriculum for each class. Learning centers help your child’s teacher focus on their individual needs, and they use the Funnydaffer™ and an in-house curriculum to prepare your child for academic success.
