Toddler Program
Toddler Program
1yrs – 2yrs

Our toddler program is for children aged 12 to 24 months. By focusing on the importance of their growing mobility, our program supports the children in exploring and understanding more of the world around them. Activities are planned to provide children with experiences in physical activity, music, movement, art, sensory experiences, science, and nature. There are opportunities for dress-up, role play, and climbing. Toddlers choose the activities that interest them and spend time playing independently as well as in groups. Toddlers spend two hours each day engaged in physical activities. We provide cots for afternoon naps, as well as a nutritious breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack. For our toddler group parents provide the bedding, diapers & diapering creams, and baby wipes. Your child’s naps, meals, diaper changes, interests, activities, and other observations are documented every day on a daily toddler chart that is given at pick up.
Inner force’s Toddler and Two programs utilize our Creative Curriculum for Infants, Toddlers, and Twos as the foundation of teaching pedagogy. Our central philosophy on education is that learning is a process and children learn best by actively engaging with their environment.
Our program focuses on creating a rich learning environment by stimulating children with hands-on activities, our program includes access to on-site music, dance, and physical fitness.
In addition to our on-site educational experiences, we provide children in our program with opportunities to link in-class learning activities to their community. Your child will participate in community outings which include trips to the zoo, aquarium, and local farm.
We believe in preparing every child for college and are putting forth every effort to close the achievement gap. In conjunction with the New York City College of Technology, we are ensuring that every child gets a chance to be college-educated, and we have chosen to invest in the future of all our students.

Daycare Program
Daycare Program
One month – 1 year

Our Infant Program is for children aged one month through 1 year. We promote an atmosphere that strengthens their fine motor, creativity, musical and sensory skills. Our children learn through play and exploration. Infants spend time exploring independently, with staff, and through group activities. INNER FORCE TOTS provides baby food and whole milk, but parents may also supply the center with formula or breast milk in labeled bottles for your infant. All of our children are provided with a nutritious breakfast, lunch, and afternoon snack each day. Each infant follows their own feeding schedule and transitions to a scheduled dining time once past the age of one year.
During nap times, our staff make routine visual checks of the children and follows our Sleep Policy to maintain safe resting each time they sleep. Cribs are provided for each infant by Inner Force Tots. Parents provide bedding, diapers, diapering creams, and baby wipes. Your child’s naps, meals, diaper changes, interests, activities, and other observations are also documented every day on the chart. Communication with our parents is essential for the care of our infants. If any additional instructions for the day are required parents are asked to provide that information on the daily infant chart as well as if there is anything that was noteworthy about their child’s night.
Infant groups are unique in all Early Childhood Education groups. Infants develop, and we must adapt to an infant’s developmental needs quickly.
Our teachers possess precise knowledge of:
- How infants develop along a continuum
- Health and Safety best practices
- So how best to communicate with parents about their growing child
It is our philosophy that providing adequate care for an infant goes beyond addressing physical needs. Our goal is to provide an environment that is nurturing and intellectually stimulating to the infants in our care. All our infants engage in daily activities that promote motor skills and cognitive development.
Our infant classes engage in daily routines that help young infants feel secure with their environments. Our infant schedules address each infant’s physical and developmental needs. We allow adequate tie for infants to engage routines such as:
- Hellos and goodbyes
- Diapering and toileting
- Eating and mealtimes
- Sleeping and nap-time
- Dressing
