Care for children ages 1 – 2 years
Our One’s Room welcomes children who are ready to begin their journey into toddlerhood. Most children move into this room around their first birthday, or the September after they turn one, depending on developmental readiness and classroom availability.
This room supports your child’s shift from baby routines to the early structure of group care. With a 1:4 teacher-to-child ratio (maximum of 8 children), your little one receives the attention, safety, and love they need while beginning to explore their independence.
