Compassionate Child Care Services for Toddlers

Future Faces Child Care and Learning Center has available child care services all year round for toddlers from ages 18 months to 3 years. It is very important during this stage that children are comfortable and allowed to explore and begin their development. Our team does everything that's possible to facilitate that development – both intellectually and physically.

Parent responsibilities regarding toddlers

Please supply the following items for your toddler and be sure all items are labeled with the child's first and last name:

• Diapers, wipes, powder and / or ointments
• Sippy cups
• Extra set of clothing (to be updated seasonally )
• Blanket, pillow and sheet (pillow and sheet are optional)

All blankets and pillows are intended to be taken home each Friday to be washed and returned the following Monday.

More information about our compassionate staff

We not only help children develop their social skills, but we also provide several positive social learning experiences throughout each day as part of our teaching strategy. We are committed to give opportunities for children to apply the problem-solving skills that they have learned and to independently solve daily problems while still maintaining a specific focus on every child's dignity and positive self-image.

Discipline policy

Firstly, teachers facilitate the development of a positive self-image and good self-esteem by respecting, accepting and comforting, regardless of the child’s behaviour. Teachers will practice developmentally appropriate guidance, which will demonstrate respect for encouraging children to develop self-control and the ability to make better decisions in the future. Learning self-control for children is fostered when teachers treat them with dignity and use of the following discipline techniques.

Guiding children by setting clear consistent and fair limits for the classroom behaviour or in the case of older children, helping them set their own limits. Teachers must value mistakes as learning opportunities and redirect children to more acceptable behaviour or activities and consistently encourage the appropriate behaviour. Teachers must be sensitive and listen to children talk about their feels and frustrations. Children must be guided by teachers to learn and resolve conflicts; teachers must model the appropriate skills that children can follow to solve their own problems. Teachers must patiently remind children of rules and their rationale as needed and teacher’s expectations must match and respect children’s developing capabilities.

Teachers will provide for children many opportunities to develop social skills such as cooperating, helping, negotiating, and talking with the person involved solving interpersonal problems. Teachers will facilitate these positive social experiences throughout their daily schedule as well as in their teaching strategies, curriculum goals as well as preparing the environment for children to learn these skills through exploration and interaction with adults, other children and materials. Teachers will be alert to possible conflicts and either intervene appropriately or allow the children to resolve the conflict independently.
