Need advice please

When my daycare kids are having trouble sharing something I take it away and put it on a high shelf where they can see it but can't get it. They learn very quickly that if we don't share the toy no one gets it.

I think it's hard for our own kids because they think the toys belong to them...I would continue with time outs, with my daughter (who is also 2) I give her a warning that if she doesn't share she will go into a time out, count to 3, if she still is not sharing then it's time out. After a few times of doing it like this, she finally caught on. She still has the odd tantrum, but she's 2 lol.

At 2 he's really not old enough to understand the concept of sharing. His take on it is that "sharing" means he has to miss out. He also doesn't have the verbal skills yet to argue his case, so he uses his body instead. Add to that the fact that toddlers have absolutely no impulse control, and you have a tiny tornado on your hands.
What usually works at that age is redirecting. Taking his hand and saying "no hitting, hitting hurts!" (or kicking, or whatever it is he is doing) and then take him to another activity. With my youngest (18 months) it's harder to get him to accept the redirect than it was with my girls, but he has a bit of a temper. Making him laugh is almost always successful.
