What is a Montessori preschool?

A Montessori preschool or Montessori daycare is an early childhood program inspired by the philosophy of Italian educator Maria Montessori. Programs that incorporate Montessori methods often focus on independence, exploration and encourage children to work at their own pace.

Montessori Program

Montessori programs offer a child-centered learning experience that encourages independence, curiosity, and self-direction. In these classrooms, children learn at their own pace through hands-on activities using specialized materials designed to support development in areas like practical life, language, math, and cultural understanding. Classrooms are intentionally prepared to promote exploration and typically group children of different ages to encourage peer learning. Rather than direct instruction, teachers serve as guides, observing each child’s interests and providing individualized support to help them grow academically and socially.

What is the Montessori method of teaching?

Montessori is a method of teaching that was developed by an Italian educator named Maria Montessori around 1896. It is a child-centered approach, focused on developing independence and practical real-world skills. Children learn at their own pace and the teacher is there to guide children, typically one on one or in small groups.

Is Montessori preschool better than daycare?

Parents often wonder whether their child would thrive in a Montessori program as opposed to a more traditional daycare setting, but the answer isn’t one size fits all. Compare the programs based on tuition, hours needed as well as whether the classroom feels like the right fit for your child. At the end of the day, you know your child best and will make the best decision for your family.

How is Montessori different from preschool?

Montessori differs from traditional preschool in that there is typically less whole group instruction and much more individualized, task-driven learning. There may be less imaginative play in a Montessori classroom, as the focus is on developing independence, early academics, and real-world skills.
