Infants

Families love the balance of nurturing care and milestone development in this program. In a warm, safe, stimulating classroom, children have a primary caregiver to attend to their needs. Plus, our exclusive, milestone-focused curriculum, Learn from the Start™, was developed by our educational experts to focus on key developmental milestones specific to infants. We emphasize each child’s development, rather than specific age, because all children grow and learn at their own pace, and in their own unique way. We’re also here when you need us. Ask your school about flexible enrollment options to fit your family’s schedule.

From the moment of birth, babies are amazing learners. They already have the innate ability to investigate sights and sounds, getting a feel for the world around them. At Villa Montessori, our teachers create a peaceful, nurturing environment and gently encourage your child to explore the carefully chosen materials that aid in their sensory development. These first few years of life is an extraordinary learning period where your child is undergoing rapid cognitive and emotional growth, brain development, and language acquisition. Our teachers are gentle and responsive, nurturing a trusting relationship so important for healthy growth and development. Under their care, your child establishes a strong sense of security and independence, encouraging a love of learning that will last a lifetime.

Toddlers

Our Toddler classes range in age from 12 months to 2.5 years. At this stage, toddlers learn through sensorial exploration. They want to see, touch, hear, taste and smell everything! We provide learning opportunities both inside and outside the classroom. Villa Montessori’s Toddler classrooms offer extensive outlets for exploration in varied media such as painting, sculpting, light table discovery opportunities, music and movement, gardening and yoga. The Toddler environment is set up in such a way as to promote investigation, creativity and experimentation. At this stage, toddlers are just acknowledging there are others in their environment and they begin to learn how to cooperate through play.
