Our Mission is to provide a safe, healthy, happy environment where children thrive both academically and emotionally as they discover a passion for learning.

Our Directresses provide your toddler with constant support and encouragement to build self-esteem, self-confidence, and their overall values. Our Toddlers are given the best of care and nurturing to create a peaceful, fun and exploratory environment while they are here at school.

COMPUTERS: Children use ABCMouse curriculum to learn how to use a mouse, tablet and follow a learning path that aligns with the Montessori learning method.

Was so fortunate to have my son attend this school for almost a year. He was in the infant room and loved it. He started crawling after only 3 days of attending the school and walking at just 8 months. Love the teachers and staff especially Miss Dolores the school chef and the awesome team in the infant roon lead by Miss Niki.they made my son feel welcomed and cared for and I was really sad that we moved this month because I wanted him to stay.

The Montessori system of education is both a philosophy of child growth and a rationale for guiding such growth. It is based on the child's developmental needs for freedom within limits, and a carefully prepared environment, which guarantees exposure to a wide range of materials, experiences and grace and courtesy, through which a child can develop intellectually, as well as physically and socially.
