That Molds Your Little One
Waddler & Toddler | 15 To 33 Months | Serving Branford & Wallingford, CT
A Daily Schedule and Lesson Plans Individualized to Your Child
The toddler years are a wonderful time, when your child first begins to explore the world around them. Your little learner engages in play-based learning experiences, guided by skilled loving teachers, that gently nudge them towards developing:
- Their senses of sight, hearing, touch and smell
- Fine-motor skills like clasping, holding, and grasping
- Gross-motor skills such as walking and playground skills (e.g. climbing)
- Social skills like taking turns and learning to manage big feelings
Impressive Outdoor Play AREA FOR TWICE A DAY FUN
Imagine your child flipping through books in the library, building with blocks, investigating cupboards in the little kitchen, or engaged in a music lesson or dramatic play. They happily investigate the ocean-themed classrooms, from guppies to jellyfish to sea turtles. There’s ample occasion for fresh air too, with structured outdoor playtime twice a day.

Our toddler rooms provide a safe, nurturing environment where your child’s day follows a consistent daily schedule and individualized lesson plans designed to meet their unique needs. The toddler years are such a special time as children begin exploring the world around them, and our loving, skilled teachers gently guide that growth through play-based learning experiences.
As toddlers build communication skills, confidence, and healthy ways to manage big feelings, we focus on developing their senses of sight, hearing, touch, and smell through hands-on exploration. Fine-motor skills like grasping, holding, and clapping are strengthened through purposeful activities, while gross-motor development is encouraged through walking, climbing, and active playground experiences. Social skills such as taking turns, building friendships, and learning self-regulation are thoughtfully supported each day.
Our curriculum balances nurturing care with engaging group experiences that promote social and cognitive growth. Children explore dramatic play, early math concepts, creative arts, literacy and language development, and sensory activities that spark curiosity and creativity. With opportunities for structured outdoor play twice a day, toddlers enjoy fresh air and active fun while building coordination and confidence.
Through meaningful play, individualized guidance, and a warm, supportive environment, we help toddlers grow, explore, and develop the foundational skills they need for future learning success.
