Toddler Classroom – The Farm Room (1 – 2 years)
The mobile toddler learns to propel themselves to explore the environment when they feel secure. Our teachers guide and gently direct our toddlers to explore their surroundings through positive and comforting interactions, activities, and fun play-time. Even at this early age, our toddlers in the one year old room participate in “circle time” and love the fun songs, dances, books and activities involved! They love playing in their sensory table, creating fun works of art, working on puzzles, and acting silly throughout the day with their friends and teachers!
A daily report on each child’s activities is given to parents to ensure they are informed as to how their child’s day went. We know it’s difficult to be away from your child but being able to sing their favorite songs they have done earlier that day is a great way for parents to feel included.

Hello! I moved to Maine last year in 2024 from Florida but I am originally from New Hampshire. Ever since I graduated high school I have been working in childcare with ages anywhere between 1 to 13 years old. I love working with toddlers, teaching them communication and creativity. In my free time I enjoy time with family and being out in nature. I am so excited to start this new journey at The Academy!
