Since opening in 1997, Tiny Tots has continued to maintain an excellent reputation among the Shanghai expat community. Year after year we have continued strong cooperation with the major international schools in Shanghai and are a member in good standing with the Shanghai International School Association (SISA). Within this association, Tiny Tots is recognized for providing a program which develops children to greater levels of social and academic skills as they enter their early primary grades.

Tiny Tots offers a curriculum to educate the while child. All areas of a child’s development are valued and therefore the curriculum promotes language and literacy, mathematics and science, social skills, physical development, and social studies. Children have the opportunity to work in small, cooperative learning groups in addition to the individual lessons they complete. At Tiny Tots, the children gain confidence to question, create theories, and test them. Critical thinking and problem-solving skills are encouraged and supported as these skills lead to future success in school and life.

Every year at Tiny Tots we are host to multiple nationalities and languages; on average our students come from over 20 different countries and our teachers come from over 5 different countries. This international environment offers an unprecedented opportunity for children to learn about other cultures as they increase their academic and social skills.

Tiny Tots believes strongly in creating a learning environment where each child can feel successful. Children want to do their best and we create a classroom and school environment where they feel valued and supported to build on each accomplishment. We value the development of the whole child.

We believe that every child can be successful. We enjoy guiding the children on a path to being a lifelong learner. Great importance is placed on creating a sage, loving environment for your child to experience a sense of competence and confidence.
