Questions About Toddler Childcare

Parent Plays Pretend Mealtime with Toddlers

If you’re here, you might find that it’s time to enroll your little one in toddler childcare! It’s normal to have questions about programs, safety, and more when thinking about finding the best daycare. At The Breakie Bunch Learning Center, we are happy to address any questions or concerns that may come up.

We’ve addressed some of our most common questions below about how our young toddler and older toddler classes can support your family. If you have more questions or would like to talk to someone about enrollment in toddler childcare at either our Waterford or Goodrich locations, please don’t hesitate to contact us!

 

How Does Your Toddler Childcare Focus on Enrichment?

We are committed to providing an enriching toddler childcare experience that focuses on physical, social, and cognitive milestones at all levels. Three of our favorite ways we enrich your child’s day are:

  • Singing and dancing
  • Reading
  • Hands-on play

 

Toddlers Love Learning Through Song and Dance

With toddlers, it’s important to keep their minds and bodies engaged at the same time! We love to get our wiggles out with daily singing and dancing. Music and dancing for preschoolers are both wildly important and beneficial; they help develop communication skills, allow little ones to express themselves, and teach them about what their bodies can do! We teach all sorts of songs that can help us learn about letters, animals, and even putting things away.

 

Storytimes During Toddler Childcare

Reading is essential, and we value everything that books have to offer. We hope to instill a love of reading in your child from day one at our childcare center. Our classroom libraries are well-stocked, and your child can explore books alone, with a friend, or as a class during storytime. As your little one ages, we will learn the alphabet and sight words.

 

Child-Led Play Time

Hands-on, child-led play is one of the best ways to learn. Your little one will be able to enthusiastically explore their environment in a safe and fun way, learning tons of social skills and gaining emotional intelligence along the way. Our older classes slowly become more structured to accommodate the learning needs of every kid.

 

How Do You Support Home Schedules?

Young minds thrive when they can fall back on their routine and structure. We intend to communicate and work with parents to support home schedules and routines as much as possible. With this approach, toddlers can learn to expect the same thing at home and in childcare, ensuring easier transitions and a greater love of their toddler childcare environment.

 

How Can I Be Involved with My Toddler’s Childcare Center?

We always love having parents involved in our play and learning! Parents are welcome to see what we’re up to and can do so via Tadpole, a parental communication app. This app allows your child’s teacher to give you crucial information about their day, like their eating habits and learning strengths. We will send daily pictures, videos, and reports to you to make sure you feel connected, even from afar.

 

Choosing Toddler Childcare

Every little one is unique, and we specialize in accommodating different learning and discipline styles so that everyone feels comfortable and receives a high-quality education. If you’re looking for great toddler childcare in the Goodrich or Waterford areas, we would love to have your little one join us in our adventures!
