As toddlers develop friendships, self-esteem, and curiosity, our Early Toddler program will help them explore their world in a safe and nurturing environment.

Our unique curriculum is based on the philosophy that young children learn best through hands-on experiences. Each day is filled with fun activities that excite and develop toddlers, giving them the comfort and confidence to speak those first few important words, as well as make their first friends.

Kiddo's Academy toddler curriculum enables your child to grow in confidence and learn to walk tall in his new world. From first steps to first words, your toddler will begin to experience the world in new ways at Kiddo's Academy. Group games provide your toddler with a sense of identity and his place in the broader world.

We provide child-directed activities such as art and sensory time. We provide meals and snacks, help toddlers adjust to transitions between activities throughout the day, and accommodate individual differences and developmental abilities. Because toddlers are gaining independence, we support their desires to learn to feed themselves and help with meal preparation, fostering self-help skills.
