THE TEACHER’S ROLE IN OUR TODDLER PROGRAM
Teachers will observe toddlers interacting with the space around them, the sensory materials, and other children to gain a deeper understanding about the children’s individual developmental needs. The teacher will use these observations to plan for the environment and experiences to support unique needs with special consideration for independence, movement and opportunities to engage all senses.
Teachers will build trust and encourage your child’s need for independence through intentional planning of the environment and providing toddler’s with unique opportunities to enhance their self-help skills.
Providing meaningful opportunities for movement, independence and the engagement of all senses through offering the choice of natural materials is the responsibility of the teacher.
Teachers will develop a respectful relationship with your family through open, reciprocal conversations about your toddler in our care. A daily log will be provided by the teacher, documenting basic care needs provided, individual experiences and learning.
