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.

Primary

A primary-age Montessori education offers a unique learning experience that helps to prepare children for their future. It encourages independent exploration, allowing students to develop at their own pace while giving them the freedom to select activities and focus on topics of interest.

Pre-Primary

In our Pre-Primary community, we greatly emphasize preparing an environment in which each child has the ability to move and explore, which supports the development of their self-knowledge.

Pre-Primary & Primary

Our Montessori guides know how to cultivate each child’s ability to think for themselves to make sound choices, improve their concentration to think clearly and constructively, and practice self-discipline.
