Location and Facilities:

Our school was developed around the idea that quality child care and education should be home-like. From the vintage toys, low height lounge chairs, and original artwork, everything has been carefully designed to make children feel like they are at home.

At Smarter Toddler we bring the outside world into the children’s lives at school. The program provides a rich environment that promotes children’s active exploration in all areas of development: physical, emotional, linguistic, aesthetic, and cognitive. We go above and beyond the standards of other daycare centers.
