ECFE

TODDLERS AND TWOS CLASSES

There is no “ one-size-fits-all ” approach to raising them . The information and tools ECFE offer during the toddler and two-year-old stage are designed to support families in creating their own ways to promote their children ’ s growth and development .
Toddlers and Twos classes are separating classes which means parents / caregivers spend half of the class time together with their child and half in parenting education while the child stays with an early childhood teacher .
Toddlers & Twos ( 18 to 33 months ) During the toddler and two years , children grow by leaps and bounds and naturally develop independence . Despite all this progress , they can also develop some challenging behaviors . Discuss how to navigate these complex years and gain a better understanding of their growth and development .
