About our Parent-Toddler Groups:\n
In our toddler groups\, the children play together and are supervised by early childhood staff while the parents sit nearby talking together with the group leaders. Toddlers are within visual range and easy access at all times. The staff helps children develop early socialization skills while beginning the discovery of independence from their parent. Groups have eight to ten toddlers and their parents. Groups are put together according to the toddler&rsquo\;s age. \;\n
\n
Some of the topics addressed in these groups are: separation\, temper tantrums\, sleep disruptions\, beginning toilet training\, travel\, balancing the toddler'\;s need for dependence and independence\, and how to manage eating issues.\n
