A Unique Child Development Center Opens in Audubon Park

Tippie Toes, formerly located in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, has opened a unique child development center in Audubon Park for children from six weeks to five years of age. Also offered are after school and holiday break programs for children from five to thirteen years old, as well as summer day camp. Tippie Toes offer daycare and preschool programs with educational and recreational curriculum created by a staff member who is a teacher with a Master’s Degree in Elementary Education.

Superior child care services aren’t the only thing Tippie Toes offers. Imagine being able to keep an eye on your child, even though you are at work, from a computer. The parents of children attending Tippie Toes can actually do just that! Through a program called KinderView, Tippie Toes parents can have secure access to real time, streaming video of their child’s day care activities. Tippie Toes is the exclusive regional provider of this service.

Another unique Tippie Toes offering is the Fit-N-Fun Bus. A school physical therapist, certified by the USA Gymnastics Association and the New Jersey Board of Education, visits Tippie Toes with a mobile gymnastics program. The program is a 30-minute gymnastics class teaching fundamental movement and tumbling skills. Fit-N-Fun Bus physical therapists are also trained in basic first aid and CPR.

Licensed and approved by the state of New Jersey, Tippie Toes also offers Computertots® computer training. Computertots® provides weekly 30-minute classes on-site. State-of-the-art equipment, curriculum, software and all materials for the classes are provided. Classes operate all year and children from ages three and up may enroll.

Remember when you were little? How excited would you have been to be able to play within a “town” that was perfectly sized for you? Tippie Toe Town is a child-size replica of an actual town including a post office, town hall and grocery store. This “town” is located outside at Tippie Toes and children can mail a letter at the post office or shop with tiny shopping carts and “groceries”!

At Tippie Toes, learning and growth is fostered through play. Reading, math, social studies, music and fitness are all part of the day. There is plenty to do inside and out. There are visits from the “Story Teller” who comes dressed as characters in the books she reads (ie: The Cat in the Hat, etc.). She sings and the children play tambourines to the music. Cherry Hill Library visits often for reading time as well. The children also learn through theme play. For example, if they are reading about ladybugs, they might make ladybug puppets and food that looks like ladybugs and they would learn words that begin with the letter “L”. In addition, Tippie Toes Out and About Summer Day Camp provides field trips two to three times per week, including Camden County Park functions, rollerskating as well as museum trips. Summer and after school programs are conducted by a teacher with a Bachelor’s Degree in Education.

Diagnostic testing for speech, hearing and behavioral issues is also available on-site at Tippie Toes and provided by specially-trained pediatric therapists.

An advanced security system, requiring visitors to be “buzzed in” has also been installed for the safety of every child enrolled at Tippie Toes.

Serving families who work or live in South Jersey, Tippie Toes is located at 2 Road C in Audubon, New Jersey, between Nicholson Road and Blackhorse Pike and is open from 6 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. For more information, parents can call Rosetta Brown at 856-546-1666.
