Welcome to Cloud Nest Daycare A Modren & Digital Daycare & Preschool
They’re on the move! We have a safe (and fun!) environment for toddlers to explore.
We provide toddler programs for children aged 12 months to 2½ years. As each child grows and develops, we provide the opportunity for safe, supervised exploration in our busy toddler rooms.
At Cloud Nest, we put safety first to protect our families and staff. Visit our health and safety page to learn more.

Group time happens every day in each of our classrooms. For toddlers, it’s their time to come together as a community, talk about the day, and hear a read-aloud.
Every day, toddlers sit down to a meal with healthy fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. We never serve juice or fried foods!
Our classes spend 20–30 minutes outside at least twice a day, weather permitting. Outdoor playtime is big-time fun for busy toddlers, as they build on their ever-growing physical skills.
Making art, stacking blocks, reading books—no matter what your toddler loves to do or where they are developmentally, we’ll help them explore their interests (and find new ones!) as they play and learn.
Activities like sorting, counting, and measuring things help budding brains grasp science and math concepts. We build their focus and memory with simple daily routines. Teachers also support physical skills like learning to walk or roll a ball.
At this age, relationships with classmates and teachers begin to form. We use social and emotional skill-building tools like feelings magnets and puppets to help them learn about their own feelings, and notice the feelings of others.
Toddlers build their vocabulary one or two words at a time by pointing to things and expressing needs. They also engage in prewriting and prereading by scribbling on paper and turning pages in books.
Creatively, toddlers express themselves with mediums like clay, and movement and dance to simple children’s songs.
Every day, our creative teachers guide toddlers through fun activities that are just right for their age. Here are just a few examples!
Kids create homes and habitats for stuffed animals with blocks. This helps them practice building, problem-solving, and playing pretend.
Kids take toy cars dipped in non-toxic paint and roll them over paper to create different patterns and textures.
Getting a little messy means learning is happening! Kids use garden tools to dig in soil and explore seeds, plants, and flowers.
