Infant & Toddler Program

Overview

Did you know that the ages from infancy to three are when a child develops the most rapidly? Our classrooms are prepared to meet all of your child’s needs. This assists your child in developing independence, focus, language, and gross/fine motor skills.  Your child will also be exposed to Spanish by several bilingual teachers. 
Loving guides/teachers support your child’s emotional, cognitive, and physical needs. Your child will be in a multi-age classroom, where the oldest children serve as role models for the youngest children.  While at school, we focus on independence in self-care, toilet learning, and parallel play with friends.

I absolutely love this school! My four-month-old daughter is in the Sweet Pea classroom; her teachers are all wonderful! I feel confident knowing I’m leaving my daughter with people who care about her. In addition, I love getting a daily report sheet that includes her nap schedule, feedings, diaper changes, and the activities she enjoyed that day. I highly recommend this Montessori school if you want a safe, clean & caring environment for your child!

Daily Schedule

We offer full and half day schedules. In the infant room (6 weeks to 14 months), your child will follow your home schedule.  Prior to enrolling, you will fill out your child’s eating, sleeping, and playing habits.  Our guides will follow your child’s lead by watching for cues to develop an individualized schedule specifically for your child. 

The toddler rooms follow a group schedule filled with individualized choices for your child’s needs.
