Our Toddlers Are On The Move And Eager To Learn How Things Work.
Supported by our loving, caring teachers, this increasing curiosity can flourish in a completely new world of opportunity and growth.
Positive Relationships Enhance your Child's Feeling Of Security
Your child’s caregiver strives to create positive relationships with each child through trust and interaction. This is a time of transition that can be both emotional and exciting. As a toddler’s world expands, new skills, vocabulary and knowledge are needed to balance their abilities. Teachers foster this growth through supportive, gentle encouragement.
Close Family Connections That Build Trust
Teachers work closely with each family and toddler to make the transition as smooth and consistent as possible by acknowledging that every child’s learning ability and development are unique and individual. Sleeping on cots, weaning off bottles, exploring new table foods and following a classroom schedule are some of the many exciting changes your toddler experiences. A parent app allows continuous up to date information about your child’s day including milestones, feedings, diapering and other fun activities. This added feature is only one of the ways we stay connected with families.
Supportive, Individual, Small Group Activities
Our Rising Star curriculum provides individual and small group activities with a lot of flexibility and mobility. Having a teacher near the children during every activity provides a stable learning environment for positive play and interaction.
Fun Learning To Foster Development And Growth
Our Rising Stars find many developmentally appropriate toys and games that they can interact with as they explore their room. The changes in our Rising Stars’ physical abilities and communication skills are staggering. Seeing your little one’s mobility transition from crawling to walking is exciting and opens many new doors to one’s learning awareness.
Verbal And Sign Language Communication With The Introduction Of Spanish
A daily use of sign language continues to flourish in the Rising Stars curriculum, allowing amazing communication between teachers and children. In addition, basic introduction of simple Spanish words opens early understanding and recognition to our bilingual enrichment program.
Calm, Encouraging, Safely Guided Teaching
Building strong connections with teachers and peers, modeling appropriate behaviors and talking about emotions are only a few of the social skills your growing toddler will experiences. Weekly, themed lesson plans provide hands-on activities including cognitive, social-emotional, language and physical development as well as activities that foster creativity with dramatic play, block play and art.
An Environment Specifically Designed For Young Toddlers Only Compliments Amazing Care
Child-friendly, eco themed classrooms create a world like no other. Filled with an assortment of educational toys and equipment, curriculum-centered play areas allow your curious toddler the opportunity to safely explore and learn. Classrooms have a design for toddlers with child height features and open spaces. Separate eating areas help keep the classroom sanitary and ensure that your young toddler has a clean environment to grow.
Rising Star Interactions
Our Rising Star Interactions Promotes a bond with you and your toddler helping them put their best little foot forward while lovingly guiding them towards more independence.
During this time of transition, it is important that our Rising Stars be provided with a learning environment that encourages exploration and mobility. Our teachers are aware of this need and strive to create an environment where your child’s social and emotional development is nurtured. Below is a sampling of the many ways this is accomplished:
- Building a trusting relationship with their teachers
- Continuing to use Sign Language to encourage communication
- Creating a safe and secure environment allowing open exploration and independence
- Introducing structured activities in small group centers
- Successfully transitioning from infant to toddler abilities, including taking single naps, sleeping on cots, eating table food, drinking from sippy cups, and participation in group activities
- Daily communication to help ensure a partnership between home and school

"We are so happy that Starboard Academy opened up in Plymouth!"
We couldn't imagine another facility being so considerate and conscientious about mackenzie's food allergies. You have gone above and beyond to make sure mackenzie has healthy meals, snacks, and treats that she can enjoy safely.We can't say enough good thing and this card isn't big enough. We love the communication, photos and updates from the Kangarootime App. Both of my kids have grown so much and excited more than we could have imagined. Mackenzie comes home singing a new song each week, and can even identify some letters and numbers and she's not even yet! Jamison can identify all of his letters and numbers in reading and writing and knows his letter sounds. He is really going to miss your school, especially the infamous PIRATE SHIP PLAYGROUND. Thank you for all you have done!
