The teaching approach, materials, and curriculum complement the Toddler’s fast-changing developmental age. The program supplements each child's innate desire to fulfill the basic human tasks of trust, motor skill engagement, independence, and self-control, as well as their sensitivity to acquisition of language and culture. Toddlers explore their world to create an initial sense of self. Our nurturing environment guides children in a positive, nonjudgemental atmosphere creating a sense of community.

The beautifully prepared classroom is designed to nurture the love of learning and bring out the unique innateness of each child. Multi sensory, hands on, self-correcting materials provide experiences from concrete to abstract. Children are self directed and have freedom of movement, guided by a trained, observant Teacher. They learn concentration, coordination, independence, and a sense of order. Natural social interactions occur throughout the work period. 

Montessori focuses on teaching for understanding, rather than assignment completion, and is recognized by experts on Early Childhood & Elementary Education as the most developmentally appropriate education model available. Beyond achieving, and oftentimes exceeding standards of academic success for entering first grade, we focus on building the independence, confidence, and curiosity that sets the foundation for a lifelong love of learning. We are  RIDE approved Kindergarten program.
