Toddler Care

Puddle Jumpers
18 months - 3 years

With our warm nurturing approach, we help toddlers take those initial steps towards independence.

Each child receives a great deal of one-on-one individualized attention. This provides little ones with a secure base for experiencing their strengths in an environment designed
specifically for them.

We see the toddler years as a time to support young children’s growing sense of self and to help prepare them for preschool. Through play and exploration, we foster children’s emerging abilities in all areas.

Learn more about our Toddler Care...

Toddlers like to explore. So, our toddler rooms are bright, colorful and engage every ounce of a child’s curiosity to play and learn. Little ones enjoy open space for physical play, quiet corners for slowing down and snuggling-in with any of our huge variety of books and puzzles, plus toys to stimulate, places to play pretend, sand and water to immerse one’s senses and a band full of instruments for making music.

Every day in our toddler daycare, children are expanding their competence and sense of achievement. As children build successes and rise to meet our teachers’ gentle challenges, children learn they can enjoy participating in activities outside of their home. They begin to develop a can-do attitude that will be one of the most important ingredients they will take with them into preschool.

 

We see the toddler years as a time to support young children’s growing sense of self and to help prepare them for preschool. Through play and exploration, we foster children’s emerging abilities in all areas of Rhode Island's Early Learning and Development Standards: physical health and motor development, social and emotional development, language development, cognitive development, literacy, mathematics, science, and creativity.

 

Stories from Lilyfrog families...

"Our family has been a part of the Lilyfrog community for nearly four years and we are so delighted with and appreciative of the tremendous care they offer! Lilyfrog has truly been a saving grace and has provided our kids with an invaluable experience in beginner school care. The Lilyfrog teachers and staff are absolutely phenomenal and incredibly engaging and communicative with us as parents. We are so pleased with our childrens' learning experiences and we can not wait to have our newest family member join the Lilyfrog community this fall!"
