A look inside our Toddler Center:
Why our Toddler Center?
Transition at their pace.
Our toddler center is a gentle transition from our infant center, which is run completely child-led, into preparing for preschool. Our teachers are skilled at teaching and introducing school-like skills and routines, while keeping the day developmentally appropriate, and at your child's pace. We work with parents on skills such as potty training, introduction to new foods, and acclimating toddlers to a loosely school-based routine.
High-quality nutrition.
Healthy eating habits start early! 🌱 That’s why we’re dedicated to gently introducing our little ones to wholesome, nutritious foods in a safe and trusted environment. By providing our kids with nourishing, unprocessed options, we’re not just feeding them today—we’re setting them up for a lifetime of well-being.
In addition, MCC practices family-style meal times, where children and staff sit together and enjoy meals in a setting which promotes connection around food.
Developmentally appropriate activities -- backed by the research.
Toddlers are motivated by their curiosity and desire to learn about the world. In Fall of 2024, we began utilizing Lillio Learning, a nationally recognized curriculum platform, designed by experts in early childhood education, to ensure every child receives age-appropriate, research-backed learning experiences.
