“First Foundations” Parent and Toddler Program

St. David’s Episcopal Day School is pleased to offer a specialized parent and child program for toddlers that nurtures children’s development  and supports parenting skills and education.

First Foundations parent and toddler program is designed to encourage whole-child development through play, socialization, and interactive circle activities, all with the comfort of a trusted adult nearby. In addition, this program promotes confidence and learning among caregivers who are encouraged to share and question in active discussions surrounding parenting, child development, and early learning topics. Our program is a wonderful opportunity to gently introduce your toddler to a classroom setting, build friendships, and become part of a supportive community at St. David’s Episcopal Day School. (Please note caregivers are welcome)
