A lifetime love of learning starts here.

Montessori for ages 3 to 6: 

Children are natural learners. Dr. Maria Montessori (1870-1952) pioneered a learning model that cultivates children’s natural curiosity, creativity and intellectual growth. Each child proceeds at his/her own pace and develops skills for independence and academic knowledge. Practical life and social skills, language, mathematics, sensorial, and cultural subjects are all explored in a learning environment that guides, nurtures, and enriches the individual child. We offer 4 or 5 day Montessori classes for children ages 3-6 years. Classes run from 8:30am to 3:00pm, with wrap- around care also available.

“Education is a natural process carried out by the human individual and is acquired not by listening to words but by experiences in the environment.” — Maria Montessori
