Innovative Early Education Programs

You can enroll your preschool child in our Toddler Community when he or she can walk independently, usually from around 12 to 16 months. This is an environment of active learning and social engagement, a community of peers. We work to foster basic motor coordination, independence, language development, and a respect for individual personalities.
