Toddler Childcare
For ages 15 months to 3 years
“The child looks for his independence first, not because he does not desire to be dependent on the adult. But because he has in himself some fire, some urge, to do certain things and not other things.”
Maria Montessori
Bright Child’s toddler childcare program in Madison, WI provides the opportunity for our new explorers to learn from the world around us.
This is an age where the seeds of independence are planted and nurtured – from taking those first steps, to learning how to politely ask for a drink of juice, to mastering the skills of buttoning a button or zipping a zipper!
Specific activities are designed to allow the child to: develop fine motor (pre-writing) skills, increase the child’s vocabulary, and develop coordination and strength.
Foreign language and music are a continued part of a toddler childcare learning experience.
Spaces include child-size tables, chairs, and other furnishings. All of our classrooms have very large windows which encourage interest in their surrounding environment.
The emphasis is on motor, social and speech development as our youngest students learn, grow and explore at their own pace.
