Part of the established MRC Education Group, 3Q™ MRC Toddlers is a childcare centre and nursery for toddlers aged 6 months to 3 years old, specialising in whole brain education.
Like the brand’s other early childhood programmes, the curriculum here is inspired by Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligences theory and aims to develop children in various aspects – whether in linguistic, logic-mathematical, musical, spatial, or naturalistic areas.
The infant and toddler years are the most critical period in a child’s life. At 3Q™ MRC Toddler, parents can rest easy knowing that their children are well taken care of while they are busy at work, covering not just the children’s needs, but also their overall learning.
The centre uses the 3Q™ curriculum, a comprehensive and research-based approach that emphasises experiential and hands-on learning. Through a structured yet fun and nurturing environment, young learners can achieve their developmental milestones while also instilling a natural love for learning.
More importantly, the programme helps them to build essential skills, such as independence and confidence, which are core traits that will take them far beyond academics.
Progression through the stages is natural: for example, infants and toddlers in the T1 group (ages 6 to 12 months) are involved in plenty of play-based activities that enhance sensory exploration, motor skills, and cognitive abilities. Meanwhile children in the T4 stage (25 to 36 months) are readied for the 3Q™ MRC Junior programme, should they choose to continue at the ages of 4 to 6.

Art and craft projects, interactive storytelling, and play-based learning are key elements of the curriculum. Additionally, character-building lessons are embedded into daily activities, teaching children values like kindness, patience, and cooperation.
All 3Q™ MRC Toddler learning centres are thoughtfully designed to create a safe, welcoming, and stimulating environment. Spacious classrooms feature age-appropriate furniture and a variety of educational tools that cater to the inquisitive nature of toddlers. Bright and colourful decor encourages exploration and keeps children engaged.
Indoor play areas provide a safe space for physical activities that support gross motor skill development, while quieter zones offer opportunities for rest and focused learning. High standards of cleanliness and safety ensure a healthy and secure environment for all children.
For children in the full-day programme, they enjoy healthy, well-balanced meals and are given adequate time for rest and relaxation – all crucial to healthy development.
Working with very young children demands love and patience, which is why 3Q™ MRC Toddler only employs dedicated and well-trained caregivers and educators. Low classroom ratios ensure that they can provide personalised attention to each child.
By building strong, positive relationships, the children feel safe and secure in an atmosphere that values trust. Educators also work closely with parents, sharing insights about each child’s progress and offering guidance on extending the learning experience at home.
3Q MRC Toddler provides a well-rounded programme that goes beyond traditional childcare. By focusing on a child’s holistic growth during their formative years, the programme helps toddlers reach developmental milestones and prepares them for a smooth transition to preschool.
