Toddlers and Twos Program
Toddlers and Twos: 1-2 Years
Toddlers and twos are filled with curiosity, energy, and emotions. Lionheart Children’s Academy creates environments where opportunities to discover, explore, and experience the world around them are abundant.

We believe and understand the importance of the early childhood years and are passionate about helping children develop the social, cognitive, and physical skills they’ll need as they progress through their education.

We Use the Experience Early Learning Curriculum® for Toddler and Twos
The Experience Early Learning Toddler and Twos Curriculum is a comprehensive, research-based curriculum designed to support children so they feel confident to learn, explore, and exercise their creative imagination through purposeful play. We provide responsive routines, teach conflict-resolution skills, and support positive attachment relationships, which produces an early learning environment where all children can thrive.
The Experience Early Learning Approach
Toddler and Twos need to feel safe and supported so they can explore and discover the world around them. Our teachers focus on developing supportive, trusting relationships with each child as well as providing an environment that encourages children to engage in experiences designed to support their optimal development.
Experience Early Learning Curriculum Content Areas
Learning is focused on six content areas: Approaches to Learning, Social and Emotional Development, Physical Development and Health, Communication, Language, and Literacy, Cognitive Development, and Creative Arts.
The Experience Early Learning Difference
We value and respect parents as their children’s first teachers. That’s why our teachers partner with you in learning everything they can about your child to better care for their needs and plan for their development. As a result, our programs create a strong bond between child, parent, and teacher.
First Look Faith-Based Curriculum
We support children’s spiritual development with our First Look Curriculum, which is based on 3 foundational principles: God made me, God loves me, and Jesus wants to be my friend forever. Our faith-based curriculum is taught through developmentally appropriate experiences.
