## About Toddler Program (From 18 months)

### Where Little Ones Begin

I’ve built the Marigold Environment for toddlers just starting out - it’s not about formal school, but about a gentle, joyful entry into a safe, warm space made just for them. Here, every tiny detail is set up so children can explore, touch, and try things on their own, right from 18 months.

### How We Approach Learning

- I don’t rush kids or push worksheets. It’s all about letting them discover at their own pace. 
- The Montessori toddler classroom is calm, with soft voices and lots of room for little hands to get busy. 
- We do things like pouring water, squeezing oranges, and folding mats. These build early independence skills and confidence.

### What Happens Each Day

- Play is how toddlers learn, so we fill our days with sensory play for toddlers - noise boxes, textures, water, and more.
- We practice simple acts of kindness and sharing, helping them start socialization for 2 year olds.
- There’s a huge outdoor space (seriously, 6,000 sq ft!) for running, climbing, and just being free.
- Yoga, dance, painting, and puzzles keep them moving and thinking.

### The Space & The People

- Our classrooms are big, peaceful, and set up for kids to choose what calls to them.
- I know the first days away from home aren’t easy. That’s why we go slow, giving time for both you and your child to settle in.

This program is set up for kids from 1 year 10 months to about 2.5 years old, so they get a strong, happy start before moving up.

### My story

We’re Chimes Montessori. Been at this for 10+ years, and honestly, every day still feels new. We started Chimes because we wanted school to feel like home, somewhere kids aren’t rushed—just respected. Here, their questions lead the way. Parents say their kids want to come even on weekends! That’s our biggest win. For us, it’s about protecting that spark in every child. That’s the Chimes way.

### My work

- **Montessori Programs for 2-6 Year Olds**: We offer Early Years Montessori program and a special Afternoon Batch, both rooted in hands-on Montessori activities.
- **Child-Led, Real Montessori Method**: No noisy classrooms. We guide, not lecture. Kids explore, choose, and learn at their own pace.
- **Learning with Heart**: It’s not just ABCs. We mix in art, music, yoga, and Grace and Courtesy lessons for emotional intelligence.
- **Feels Like a Second Home**: Our space is safe, calm, and nurturing. Teachers and parents work together so every child feels they belong.
