The Playgroup Program caters to the needs of young children by establishing a home like environment that fosters a sense of security with their first preschool experience. We focus on creating loving, calm and nurturing environment to give them the basic foundation for learning. Each day begins with engaging circle time. Toddlers learn about colors, shapes, numbers and letters. They understand the world around them through verbal communication, sensory activities, storytelling and music exploration. Arts and crafts are incorporated into daily lessons. Developing an awareness of other children and people in their environment are a part of the toddler’s day. The Playgroup program is designed to help children develop their social skills, basic motor skills, eye hand coordination, movement control, independence, problem-solving skills and language which includes new vocabulary, & correct pronunciation.

The Pre nursery program provides a stimulating environment that gives the children the freedom to move and explore, according to their inner needs. Children can choose their own activities and work at their own pace. The program is designed to kindle each child’s curiosity and instill a lifelong love of learning.They learn about their world from their surroundings and develop their communication, integration, co-ordination and motor skills. It also enables children to develop and practice the ability to wait, share, listen and make individual choices. Children learn how to be independent whilst respecting others around them.

Our nursery program provides a rich classroom environment where children are encouraged to explore and are challenged to learn. Children work individually or in small groups to discover and unravel key learning areas, develop their intelligence and achieve their full potential. Activities in the nursery classroom include practical life exercises, sensorial activities, early language and number work, introduction to cultures and geography, botany and zoology. Each Montessori program builds on the one before it, providing challenges that are both appropriate to age and skill level. The focus is to prepare children develop independence, a strong sense of self, self-motivation and a love of learning. In this way the nursery program aims to prepare children, not just for school, but for life.

At Toddler House, the main aim of early years education is not explicitly “education” in the formal sense but also the promotion of the health and wellbeing of every child. Preschool doesn’t mean we focus on preparing children for school academically,alone. The main goal is to make sure that the children are happy and responsible individuals. The “joy of learning”through play, language enrichment and communication are the base of our pedagogy. To ensure this, we have incorporated Jolly Phonics, Howard Gardner's theory on multiple intelligences and Friedrich Froebel’s play methods to achieve the highest potential of the child in any environment and space through activities based on all aspects of intelligence and personality.
