Toddlers are little people with big emotions. Our play-based program supports them to thrive in an environment where they can move at their own pace. We provide plenty of time for exploration, self-help and social skill development, including communication, emotional awareness and empathy.

At Simba Education, we believe that flexibility is key to fostering an environment where children thrive. A flexible routine is central to our approach as flexibility allows us to adapt our daily schedule based on the interests, needs, and rhythms of the children. Each group of children is unique so a flexible routine allows us to respond to the dynamics of the group, whether that means extending a popular activity, adjusting to varying energy levels, or incorporating teachable moments as they arise. For an example of our daily Toddler routine, see above.
