Toddler Care at Coronado Prep
Our Wild Cats | 1:6 Teacher-to-Child Ratio
Big personalities. Busy little hands. So much to discover.
The toddler years are full of exciting firsts—new words, new friendships, new skills and a whole lot of “I can do it!” At Coronado Prep Preschool, we give our toddlers a safe, loving place to explore their growing independence while still getting all the comfort, encouragement and cuddles they need.
Learning Through Play
Toddlers learn by doing. Our Wild Cats spend their days moving, exploring, talking, creating, singing, reading and playing alongside their friends.
Through hands-on activities and everyday experiences, our teachers encourage:
- Language & Communication — building vocabulary, expressing wants and needs, songs, stories and conversation
- Social & Emotional Skills — learning to share, take turns, make friends and navigate big toddler feelings
- Independence — practicing self-help skills like eating, cleaning up and doing more for themselves
- Movement & Coordination — running, climbing, dancing and developing both large and small motor skills
- Curiosity & Thinking — exploring, experimenting, problem-solving and discovering how things work
And because every toddler develops differently, we meet children where they are rather than expecting every child to reach milestones at exactly the same time.
Routine With Plenty of Room to Explore
Toddlers thrive when they know what comes next. Our days provide a comfortable rhythm of play, learning activities, meals, outdoor time and rest—with plenty of flexibility for the needs of young children.
Our teachers guide with patience, encouragement and lots of positive reinforcement as toddlers learn how to express themselves, manage emotions and become increasingly independent.
We’re Your Partner, Too
We know there’s a lot happening during the toddler years! Families stay connected through Brightwheel, with updates about meals, naps, diapering, activities and special moments throughout the day.
And when your child is ready for potty training, we’re here to work alongside you so home and school can be consistent.
Little Steps That Lead to Big Things
At Coronado Prep, we believe these early experiences create the foundation for everything that comes next. Our goal is for your toddler to feel safe, loved, confident and excited to come to school each day.
Come meet our Wild Cats and see toddler learning in action.
