At Toddler’s Den, we are a team of educators, engineers, and designers working to create world-class early learning experiences relevant to the needs of the 21st century. Our core team has graduates from Stanford, Harvard, and IIT and has experience of working in companies such as McKinsey, Unilever, Pixar, Sprinklr, and Teach for India. We are creating centres of learning where: - Children love to come every day and learn in an inclusive and caring environment - Every child is encouraged and supported to become a polymath - Children develop cognitively, physically, emotionally, and socially - Teachers are empowered with the knowledge, tools, and technologies to create a true difference in the lives of all children - Research and experience inform pedagogy and instructional practices Our Early Years Program is a child-centric, developmentally appropriate, and integrated program of learning for 1 to 6 years old children. We have defined our own play-based approach to early learning inspired by the Montessori, Reggio Emilia, and the Waldorf schools of thought. Our preschools are powered by our proprietary integrated technology platform that lets teachers collaboratively plan for learning activities, intuitively document each child’s learning journey, and effectively communicate with parents. We currently run 2 preschools - one in Ahmedabad and another one in Mumbai. Here is a short video capturing life and learning at our preschool in Ahmedabad - https://goo.gl/VxXS6K
