Expect face-to-face interactions with your child’s teachers every day. Families are invited to stay connected to their child’s daily activities via our family communication app.
Our teachers carefully craft lessons and follow daily routines to support toddlers in navigating social-emotional experiences, as well as the basic principles of language, math, and science.
Unique to Kinderberry Hill, our lower teacher-child ratio of 1:6 and small group size of just 12, allows teachers to meet the individual needs of each child and foster their overall learning.
Designed to be warm and engaging, our toddler rooms provide a language-rich, home-like environment with areas for children to be curious, energetic, and eager learners. Art, sensory, blocks, language, manipulatives, and dramatic play areas are all richly enhanced with unique and beautiful loose-parts materials, encouraging open-ended play. Endless opportunities are provided as toddlers explore the world around them.
Through thoughtful observation, our teachers intentionally plan activities to support children to move to the next developmental level. Activities are integrated across all domains of toddler development: physical, social, emotional, and intellectual. These experiences foster self-awareness, develop self-esteem, and transform everyday routines into playful and meaningful learning moments.
Each morning, our caring teachers and excited friends will warmly greet and welcome you and your child into the classroom. After a quick stop at your child’s locker, your child will be ready to jump into their day.
Balanced and healthy meals, including breakfast, lunch, and snacks, are prepared on-site and served family-style. Your child will enjoy delicious and nutritious options throughout the day, fostering a strong sense of community through engaging and lively conversations with peers and teachers.
Favorite songs, books, games, and conversations bring this small community together during group times. Using a variety of music, fingerplays, props and FUN children practice colors and shapes, as well as explore new vocabulary each week. This time is also used to share kindness and EXPRESS care for our community members. We celebrate each other and extend happiness and friendship through the practice of many kind words and actions to express these feelings.
Your toddler will be invited to snuggle up with their favorite blanket and favorite comfort toy on their very own cozy cot for naptime. Dimmed lights, soft music and teachers rubbing backs ensure naptime is a soothing transition in which children can recharge for the full and fun afternoon ahead.
At pickup, you’ll be greeted by a well-loved, hardworking little learner—full from a day of discovery, growth, and play. Teachers will share an update about your child’s day before wishing your family a good night. We can’t wait to see you tomorrow!
The entire classroom is open for classroom exploration. OUR teachers intentionally set up provocations to promote curiosity and challenge children through play. During this exploration time, teachers also work with small groups of children to focus on specific educational outcomes, i.e. fine and large motor skills, color recognition, as well as social emotional skills and practices like turn taking, recognizing emotions, sharing and more.
Sunshine and fresh air are highly valued at Kinderberry Hill. At least once daily, whether sun, rain, wind or snow, your child will enjoy running, climbing, digging, and pedaling outside. This space is specifically designed for toddlers and teachers enrich it regularly with new provocations, water play experiences, art activities, instruments, games, songs and more.
Your curious toddler will thrive in our STEAM and Spanish Wonder Lab classes! These classes encourage children to experience hands on play and fun while learning STEAM concepts and building a strong foundation in the Spanish Language! Music, movement and exploration are key components of these engaging classes.
