Toddlers and Preschoolers ( 3-5 year olds)

Building Confidence, Creativity, and Social Skills

At Talita’s Daycare, we understand that the ages of 3 to 5 years are critical for a child’s development. This is the time when children begin to explore their independence, refine their motor skills, strengthen their social interactions, and develop essential early learning abilities. Our Toddlers and Preschoolers Program is designed to provide a structured yet flexible environment where children can learn through play, exploration, and guided activities.

Our experienced caregivers are passionate about helping young children build confidence, creativity, and curiosity. We foster a sense of belonging and encourage children to engage with the world around them, preparing them for future academic and social success.

Through a carefully designed curriculum that includes phonics, language development, creative arts, motor skills, and social interaction, we ensure that your child receives a well-rounded early education experience.

Social Skills – Encouraging Cooperation, Patience, and Kindness

Developing social and emotional intelligence is just as important as academic learning at this age. At Talita’s Daycare, we teach children the value of:

Patience – Waiting their turn during group activities and games.
Sharing – Learning how to share toys and materials with classmates.
Kindness – Encouraging empathy, understanding, and positive interactions with peers.
Conflict Resolution – Teaching children how to express their emotions and resolve conflicts respectfully.
Teamwork – Engaging in group activities to teach cooperation and collective problem-solving.

Children learn these skills naturally through play, guided group activities, and teacher-led discussions. Our caregivers model positive behavior and help children understand the importance of treating others with respect and kindness.

Daily Feedback and Progress Updates – Stay Informed and Involved

We believe that parent involvement is essential for a child’s success. At Talita’s Daycare, we maintain open and consistent communication with parents to keep you informed about your child’s progress.

Daily Reports – We provide daily updates through a secure app, including details about meals, naps, learning activities, and milestones.
Parent-Teacher Meetings – We schedule regular meetings to discuss your child’s development, strengths, and areas where they might need additional support.
Photo and Video Updates – We share moments from your child’s day so you can feel connected and engaged even when you’re not there.
Developmental Milestones Tracking – We monitor your child’s progress and share insights about their growth in social, cognitive, and motor skills.

Our goal is to work together with parents to ensure that your child is thriving in all areas of development.

Phonics and Language – Building Strong Communication Skills

Language development is a key focus at Talita’s Daycare. We integrate phonics, singing, and language activities into daily routines to help children build a strong foundation in communication and literacy.

How We Develop Language and Literacy:

Music and Singing – Children engage in singing, rhyming, and repetitive patterns, which help them develop phonemic awareness (recognizing and manipulating sounds).
Storytime and Reading – Our teachers read age-appropriate books and encourage children to ask questions and share their thoughts, helping them develop listening and comprehension skills.
Conversation and Expressive Language – We engage children in open-ended conversations to encourage them to express their thoughts and improve their vocabulary.
Early Writing Skills – Through tracing, drawing, and guided writing activities, children develop fine motor skills and early writing techniques.
Multilingual Exposure – Depending on the child’s background and family preferences, we introduce simple words and phrases in different languages to enhance cognitive flexibility.

By incorporating phonics and language into everyday activities, we create a natural learning process that strengthens communication skills and builds confidence in self-expression.

Gross Motor Skills – Active Play and Outdoor Exploration

Physical activity is essential for healthy development and coordination. Our program includes plenty of time for active play and exploration in a safe, well-equipped outdoor playground.

Jumping, Running, and Climbing – We encourage children to engage in physical activities that develop balance, strength, and coordination.
Outdoor Games – Group games help children learn teamwork and strategic thinking while improving their motor skills.
Nature Exploration – Time spent outdoors helps children develop a connection with nature and enhances their sensory development.
Sports and Group Play – Children have the opportunity to participate in age-appropriate sports and team-building activities.

Our caregivers closely supervise all outdoor play to ensure that children are safe while having fun and staying active.

Creativity and Imagination – Inspiring Self-Expression

Creativity is an essential part of early childhood development. At Talita’s Daycare, we provide opportunities for children to explore their imagination through:

Arts and Crafts – Painting, drawing, and creating with different textures and materials to develop fine motor skills and artistic expression.
Music and Dance – Exploring rhythm and movement through songs and dance.
Storytelling and Dramatic Play – Acting out stories and role-playing helps children improve language skills and emotional expression.
Building and Constructing – Blocks, puzzles, and problem-solving activities encourage logical thinking and creativity.

By encouraging creativity and imaginative play, we help children develop problem-solving skills and emotional intelligence while discovering their unique talents and interests.

Extra-Curricular Activities – Expanding Learning Opportunities

At Talita’s Daycare, we offer extra-curricular programs to give children additional opportunities to explore their interests and develop new skills:

Ballet – Ballet classes help children improve balance, flexibility, and grace while encouraging discipline and creativity.
Karate – Karate teaches self-control, respect, and focus while improving physical coordination and confidence.

These activities are designed to support your child’s physical, social, and emotional development in a structured and engaging environment.
