Maria Montessori was born in Italy in 1870. She became the first woman doctor in her country's history. Her early work was with retarded and poor children. In 1907 she was asked to direct a daycare center in a housing project. It was there that Dr. Montessori began creating materials for the children. She discovered they were disciplined in the materials and had taught themselves. Dr. Montessori created materials that allowed freedom of choice and control and control of error. Maria Montessori became well known all over the world teaching people her methods. She wrote many books that are available in our office. Dr. Maria Montessori died in 1952, but her materials live on. |

Before and After Care |
Toddler Classroom ages 2-3
The toddler classroom offers very young children a unique year of self-development in a tender atmosphere of special understanding, respect, and support. They are unique in that they provide a very specific structure which fulfills the social, physical, emotional, and psychological needs of each child.
In this environment, there is space for movement, space for individual work, and space for group activities. Everything in the environment is proportionate to the child’s size and is designed to be safe and aesthetically pleasing for children. |

The primary goal of the Montessori program is to help each child reach full potential in all areas of life. Activities promote the development of social skills, emotional growth, and physical coordination as well as cognitive preparation.
