Can we have a toddler based pack?
I just have a thought on this, i still haven't figured everything out but i don't think the team have done this before but for some realistic gameplay i'm thinking about having a toddler based pack (...

The idea here is too narrow. Most of what you mentioned can be done with other packs.
have a swimmingpool that's made for toddlers with mini watersliders, more variety for the toddler pools
A toddler pool comes withe seasons. It doesn't have a mini waterslide but there aren't waterslides in the game for regular pools.
daycare career for adult and maybe even for teen sims even if it's a rabbit-hole
Sims can run a daycare with business and hobbies. There is the babysitter part-time job in the base game.
a new venue type called "toy store" so the parents can buy stuff for toddlers (infants and children are also okay by me though) so toddlers can make a good use of it
You can already run a toy store with the Get to Work or Business & Hobbies expansion packs.

meaning it's difficult for toddlers to have a happy moodlet, they are more often in a angry moodlet
This is too similar to the fussy trait.
i can't think of other things but maybe as for the basegame update they can call not only a certain sim to ask certain sim to hangout with them but also have other household invite them over just like The Sims 2 did for a more realistic gameplay and this time they can include atleast infants and toddlers so the parents can bring them over so other sims can meet infants and/or toddlers and if an another toddler is in the house 2 toddlers meet each other and play with each other
I'm not sure what you mean by this. If you own toddler stuff, you can host a playdate. If you travel with your Sim, they can take another sim, such as a toddler with them to any lot.
i'll try to answer everything in a neutral way
now thinking back about it some toddler stuff can be added in basegame but not everything and watersliders won't have to be this big for both toddlers and for other lifestages
for children and latter stages it can have the watersliders like The Sims 2 had since we don't have normal watersliders in The Sims 4 yet and for toddlers it can have smaller watersliders (normal watersliders should be in basegame which we don't have yet like they have added pools in basegame later)
daycare in this case it can be optional like "Get To Work" careers and some other careers from other packs, i'm sure the team can figure things out and yes i'm aware we can create things from "businesses and hobbies" i tried them myself but won't it be more usefull if you can do daycare without having to stress out with your active sim the businesses get automatically closed if it goes to other lots? (i heard from others your business gets closed if you visit other lots or even other worlds if you own "businesses and hobbies" pack)
besides i bet lots more items and activities get added in a toddler based pack, it won't hurt to add more things for toddlers like playgrounds for toddlers only to name one
as for the toy store it won't hurt to have some kind of a shop which you can buy some toys for the toddlers without running a business from either "get to work" or "businesses and hobbies" it's kinda like saying "*you can run a library with businesses and hobbies pack*" if you ask me but library was a thing as a venue type since the very start so it wouldn't hurt to add some kind of a toy store without running a business (i want something similair to The Sims 2 you visit the venue type only to buy some items, it was a thing in The Sims 2 back then)
as for the traits it may or may not be too similair but i want more toddler traits either way because we have so little options not everybody is the same, i just couldn't think up with other traits
as for the playdate i've heard it's there and i'll try them out someday but for the basegame update it isn't just about toddlers, it's literally the whole household i was talking about, not just toddlers, more similair to The Sims 2 incase you haven't played that game, The Sims 2 had the option with the land phone to invite each of the household, i miss that to be honest
as for "it should be in other packs or basegame" you can say that with most of the packs and maybe even kits so knowing EA they makes other packs that should be in an already existing packs
