Toddler Program

18 months to 34 months

Our Toddler Program consists of the Wobbler and Mini classrooms. Both feature the same curriculum, but toddlers are grouped in different classrooms based on age and skill level.

Patience Montessori School offers an excellent program for toddlers, which is conducive to the total growth of a toddler. They are under the individual attention of a warm, loving trained teacher. They care for the child as a whole, which includes contributing towards their emotional, physical, and intellectual development.

Our goal is to educate children in a loving and orderly environment, where they can master their muscle coordination. They also work on body image and movement, as well as a sense of order, good habits, confidence, and concentration. Each class is assigned two teachers. The teachers are well trained in Montessori Education, CPR, First Aid & Universal Precaution. Advancing to the next class (ie, Mini to Wobbler) is determined by the prepared environment’s capacity to meet that particular child’s educational needs. The toddlers have their own specially designed playground to ensure safe play.

Potty Training

We will help potty train your child. The director will notify you of our training procedures when your child is ready to begin. Our children get potty trained much faster than most parents expect.

Mini and Wobbler Developmental Characteristics

  • Exploration of everything around them

  • An explosion of language.

Curriculum for Mini and Wobblers

Mini and Wobblers Development Activities are grouped into the following areas:

  • Practical Life Activities

  • The Five Senses

  • Language Development

  • Movements

  • Personal Expression

This program emphasizes motor skills and practical life activities. Some examples of our curriculum’s focus on these areas is practicing measuring, pouring, lacing, and stringing. We also polish fine motor skills, table manners and work closely with toddlers to understand socially acceptable behavior. Most of the classroom’s day-to-day activities will focus on five important skills - visual skills, such as shapes, colors, patterns, kinesthetic and tactile objects, smell and tasting of food, and auditory skills by listening to CDs, dancing, and more!
