The transition from toddler care to preschool is an important step in a child’s development. During these formative years, children begin to build the skills they need to succeed in school and life. A comprehensive approach, combining structured toddler care with the benefits of Free PHLpreK, sets the stage for a smooth transition and ongoing success.

Toddler care programs focus on creating a secure, nurturing environment where children can explore their growing independence. These programs introduce toddlers to routines, social interactions, and early learning activities that foster cognitive, physical, and emotional development. Through guided play, sensory activities, and social engagement, toddlers build the foundational skills they need to thrive in more structured educational settings.

Free PHLpreK is a valuable resource for families looking to prepare their children for kindergarten. This program offers no-cost preschool education to eligible families, providing children with access to high-quality early learning experiences. Free PHLpreK helps children build on the skills developed in toddler care, such as language, problem-solving, and social-emotional understanding. It also introduces them to a classroom environment, ensuring they are ready for the more formal structure of kindergarten.

At Deborah’s Little Shepherds’ Childcare, Inc., we are committed to helping children thrive through every stage of their early learning journey. Our toddler care program provides the strong foundation necessary for future success, and Free PHLpreK builds on that by offering continued opportunities for growth and development.
