At It’s Circle Time, we believe learning is best when children feel safe, loved, and truly seen. When kids feel heard and understood, they grow naturally—building confidence, curiosity, and joy as they explore the world around them. Connection is at the center of everything we do, because strong relationships help little learners thrive.
Circle Time is more than a routine—it’s a fun, feel-good moment to sing, play, and connect. Through songs, stories, and shared experiences, children build friendships, express their feelings, and discover who they are, while caregivers gain simple, meaningful tools to support learning with confidence and heart. We’re here to help families grow and learn together—one joyful moment at a time.
Our Mission
We support toddlers as they prepare for kindergarten and beyond by nurturing the whole child through playful, purposeful learning rooted in connection.
Encourage a Love of Learning
We make learning fun! Through songs, stories, games, and circle time activities, toddlers explore new ideas, practice talking and working together, and discovers the joy of learning from the very start.
In our safe, caring space, children learn about their feelings, make friends, and practice kindness and empathy - building the confidence to express themselves and connect with others.

"To have successful screen time with toddlers, it is important to find a balance between screen time and other activities. It is similar to finding the right balance of play, rest, and nourishment for optimal growth and development. The key is to consider the age, interests, and needs of the child."
Our Philosophy
Dream It
Build It
Share It
We dreamed of a warm, engaging learning space designed just for toddlers. We built it using trusted early childhood research and intentional design. And we share it with families and educators who believe in learning through connection.
Circle Time is filled with music, movement, stories, and hands-on exploration—carefully planned to meet toddlers where they are and help them grow with confidence and joy.

Beyond the Circle
At the heart of our "It's Circle Time" philosophy lies a profound commitment that extends far beyond the structured sessions themselves. We recognize that true developmental progress happens through consistent, integrated support that bridges our program with your child's entire world. Our comprehensive approach ensures that every child receives nurturing continuity between learning environments, creating a seamless developmental journey.
Open Communication
We foster strong, collaborative partnerships through open and consistent communication, combining daily check-ins, digital portfolios, regular conferences, and guaranteed timely responses. With tools like individualized journals, a secure family portal, newsletters, and access to specialists, families stay informed, engaged, and actively involved in their child’s development.
Curriculum Alignment
We create seamless learning bridges by aligning our curriculum with home routines through shared weekly themes, skill-reinforcement activities, coordinated schedules, and culturally responsive practices. Families are ensured learning feels consistent, meaningful, and naturally integrated across environments.
Developmental Guidance
We provide expert developmental guidance through personalized milestone mapping, regular access to early childhood specialists, proactive strategy sessions, and curated resources—helping families understand their child’s unique growth path, anticipate what’s next, and confidently support development while turning milestones into positive, celebrated moments rather than sources of stress.
