What Matters Most at This Stage?
Toddlers at this age thrive with:
Between 18 and 24 months, toddlers are braver, bolder, and busier than ever. They’re discovering their independence—and with that comes new joys, challenges, and incredible growth. At this stage, we guide your child through big feelings, big milestones, and the budding desire to “do it myself” with patience and encouragement.
Toddlers at this age thrive with:
Your toddler is always on the move—running, climbing, jumping, and dancing. They're refining balance, coordination, and spatial awareness.
They’re asking questions without words, solving problems, and exploring patterns in their play.
You’ll hear more words, clearer expressions, and lots of repetition. Vocabulary is growing fast.
Your child is developing their sense of identity while learning how to interact with others.
Toddlers in this stage are eager to do things on their own—and we’re here to guide that energy in ways that support self-esteem and skill-building.
By age two, your child is becoming more active and curious about their environment. Their growing mobility means they need increased supervision and guidance to ensure they stay safe. In PK2, we focus on teaching basic safety rules, such as looking both ways before crossing the room, understanding personal boundaries, and following adult instructions.
We also continue to encourage proper hygiene practices, like washing hands before meals and after outdoor play. Healthy eating, active living, and regular routines are emphasized as we support their physical development and well-being in a safe and nurturing environment.
Pacesetter Academy is arguably the best Preschool in the Miramar/Pembroke Pines area. My child has been attending this school for about a year and a half and his knowledge base has increased tremendously. I also appreciate them remaining open during this pandemic, allowing me to continue to work and my child to continue in his learning growth.
Our approach, rooted in the renowned HighScope Curriculum, nurtures young minds by fostering a love of learning through active engagement, independent exploration, and comprehensive growth.
We help toddlers feel empowered while staying deeply connected to nurturing adults. Independence doesn’t have to mean “going it alone.”
Our curriculum is designed specifically for this window of development—supporting exploration while building the foundation for preschool.
From quiet corners for regrouping to active play zones, every space supports how toddlers move through their day.
We know this stage can feel unpredictable. We’re always here to listen, offer tips, and support your family through the ups, downs, and daily wins.
