Drop-In Care Program

Preschool

Our Children's House program provides authentic Montessori education, combining preschool and kindergarten in a nurturing environment. Children learn at their own pace through hands-on exploration and teacher-guided lessons, developing independence, concentration, and self-discipline. Our Montessori-trained teachers prepare thoughtful learning environments that honor each child's natural curiosity and cultural background. The program balances child-initiated activities with circle time for songs, discussions, and community building, fostering both academic growth and social connection.

Infant (Nido Community)

All of our schools and child care centers offer Infant Programs for children six weeks and older. Each classroom provides a nurturing, enriching environment designed to spark curiosity and support early exploration, with plenty of time for cuddles, reading, language development, and motor skill activities. Our Infant Community teachers are experienced, compassionate, and patient, and they take great joy in guiding children through their earliest milestones and discoveries.
