IVY PREP EARLY LEARNING ACADEMY TODDLER PROGRAM
Toddler Programs for ages 18 months – 2 years old
This stage of life is consumed by discovering new things every day. Toddlers are curious, ever-moving creatures who are growing and learning with each coming second. With toddler programs like ours here at Ivy Prep Early Learning Academy, your blossoming toddler will be provided with something new to learn each new day! And, these discoveries will be made within a structured, compassionate, and safe environment surrounded by our experienced instructors.
Embracing the Developmental State of Your Toddler
At this age, toddlers use their senses to discover and learn about the world around them. And, with direction, these discoveries can be used to incorporate learning techniques.
Here at Ivy Prep Early Learning Academy, we believe that this developmental stage should be embraced. Additionally, we believe that this stage is essential so your child can effectively develop an appreciation for discovering and learning new things.
So, we provide a number of activities that encourage our young students to utilize all of their senses throughout each day. Whether it’s the art corner or circle time, your child will be able to utilize his or her sense of touch, smell, taste, or hearing to learn. At Ivy Prep Early Learning Academy, we want to make sure our toddlers are given the opportunity to safely explore the classroom. We understand toddlers do not have a very long attention span; our teachers enjoy planning a variety of projects and games to encourage them to continue learning during their day with us. And, with each milestone your child hurdles through their toddler programs, we’ll be here to monitor and document so that you’re with us every step of the way!
Curriculum Utilized in Learning Programs for Toddlers
Ivy Prep Early Learning Academy follows The Creative Curriculum’s statement and “Nurtures Everyday Moments for the Youngest of Learners”. We understand the importance of consistency for our toddlers, therefore we work closely with infant teachers/parents/guardians to help scaffold and support children as they adapt to the progressions of a toddler classroom. Our toddler program is adapted and aligned to the objectives for development and learning to ensure more discrete observations and individualized support during this critical period of development.
Ivy Prep Early Learning Academy strives to incorporate meaningful learning experiences into daily routines and create meaningful learning experiences with comprehensive, research-based curriculum solutions that nurture the unique strengths, interests, and needs of toddlers.
Everyday moments with toddlers present opportunities to build upon their natural curiosity. Create meaningful interactions that help young children learn to regulate their emotions and behaviors, participate in a group, develop relationships with people in their lives, and have confidence in their own learning. Here at Ivy Prep Early Learning Academy we focus on intentional caregiving with love, nurturing, support and guidance at the forefront.
Our teachers utilize resources designed specifically to support the unique demands of each day in a toddler program. Teachers and caregivers can provide children with the opportunity to develop secure attachments through developmentally appropriate resources that allow them to gain confidence as learners.
Every child is different, so it’s no surprise that they learn differently, too. Ivy Prep Early Learning Academy meets toddlers exactly at their level with The Creative Curriculum’s unique color-coded progression that shows the typical development of milestones from 12 to 24 months of age.
