Montessori Inspired Children House and Daycare

 

Young Children’s Community (YCC):

Nido and Primary programs (18 months to 3 years).
 

It is specifically designed to assist the child as his/her mobility and language continue to develop. The environment stresses socialization and language enrichment, allows for purposeful work with the hands, and encourages repetition. Children also participate in the care of their outdoor environment. The concept of choice becomes central to children at this age, and the opportunity to select work based on interest allows each child’s concentration, self-confidence, and independence to grow.

​

​

The Children’s House,

also known as the Primary Program, serves children from approximately ages 3-6.

​

The environment is carefully prepared using Montessori principles that allow the children to choose work according to their interests and developmental level. The Montessori teacher initially presents the specially designed Montessori educational materials. Each child works at his/her own pace, repeating activities, making choices, and developing abilities through exploration of his/her work. Indirect learning occurs as children observe the work of others and in turn share what they have learned with their classmates. In this way, children explore basic concepts of literacy, numeracy, geography, music, art and care of self and the environment.
