🌟 Over the last two days, our Tot Time at the Y class celebrated a year full of learning, laughter, friendship, and fun! From making their first friends to building confidence and independence, our little learners have grown so much.

Our drop-off program for 2- and 3-year-olds helps children develop the skills, comfort, and confidence they need as they prepare for full-time school settings. Watching their personalities shine and their milestones unfold has been such a joy.

We are so proud of all our sweet friends and the incredible progress they’ve made this year. We can’t wait to see all the amazing things they’ll accomplish next—and we hope to continue being part of their journey for years to come! 💙✨
