Toddler Program

First steps

St. Therese toddlers are bright and bold. With one teacher for every five toddlers, our staff get to know each child individually and encourage their little personalities to blossom.

This amazing time of development is enhanced with art, music, dramatic play, cognitive learning, and gross and fine motor development. Activities are balanced between active time and quieter moments, and we take full advantage of our campus, exploring the Outdoor Learning Center and the DNR-certified school forest right outside our front door. Whether we are playing on our toddlers-only playground, walking in the woods, singing songs or learning about colors, shapes, letters and numbers, our toddlers are immersed in learning and love.
