Primary
Learning revolves around tangible experiences. Practical life exercises like sorting, pouring, or washing dishes are introduced. Children also use concrete materials such as movable alphabets, cubes, cylinders, and other objects to learn. They learn to work together, with each others’ best interests in mind. This broad-based program allows children to explore a range of subjects and ideas: science and nature, music and movement, sensorial experiences, cooking and nutrition, cultural awareness, history; geography, language arts, and mathematics.
Toddlers
This is the time when children use their bodies, senses, and emerging problem-solving skills to learn about and make sense of their world in the ways most meaningful and effective for them. Our toddler educators give your toddler responsive, individualized attention to help build their skills. Activities range from the simple to the complex, with work areas arranged by subject. Montessori materials not typically found at other schools are used, as children choose activities based on their own interests. We focus on sensory and perception; self-help; language; physical and motor skills; social and emotional growth. We’re also here when you need us. Ask your school about flexible enrollment options to fit your family’s schedule.

Our Children’s House preschool and pre-K program lays a strong foundation for academic and social success by honoring each child’s natural drive to learn. In this mixed-age Montessori environment, children explore subjects like math, language, science, and geography through hands-on materials and individualized lessons. The daily routine also includes real-world activities—such as preparing snacks or watering plants - that build independence, confidence, and a sense of purpose. As they grow at their own pace, children develop critical thinking, leadership, empathy, and the skills they need to thrive in kindergarten and beyond. Full-Time tuition listed. Part-time and flexible scheduling options are also available. Contact this location for more details.
Spanish Immersion
Our Spanish Immersion program offers children the gift of bilingualism in a nurturing Montessori environment. Led by native Spanish-speaking guides, children are immersed in the language through daily routines, conversations, and hands-on learning—developing fluency with natural intonation and accent. Alongside Spanish language acquisition, children engage in a full academic curriculum including math, reading, writing, and practical life activities. This early exposure not only strengthens cognitive development but also opens the door to a lifetime of cultural, social, and professional possibilities. Full-Time tuition listed. Part-time and flexible scheduling options are also available. Contact this location for more details.
