Opening Doors to Imagination
Our toddler program is built upon the importance of fostering education in every child while celebrating their individuality and reaching their potential. We know that toddlers thrive on routines, so we develop a flexible schedule that accommodates accommodating naps, meals, and playtime. This program is intended to promote a love for learning in your child that will last a lifetime.
What to Expect
At Great Beginnings, we understand that entrusting your child to the care of others can be a difficult decision. Our goal as caretakers is to provide the highest quality environment for little ones to thrive, while also providing parents with the peace of mind that their child is safe, happy and in great hands.
