Description: The Montessori method is designed to help children with their
task of inner construction as they grow from childhood to maturity. The Montessori approach succeeds because its principles are flexibility of the Montessori approach allows it to be adapted to the needs of the individual child, regardless of the level of ability, learning style or social maturity.
The Montessori environment is designed to meet the physical, the child to learn and thrive. In the Montessori classroom, children are free to respond to their natural drive to work and learn. The child’s inherent joy of learning is encouraged by giving him/her the opportunities to engage in meaningful activities, under the concentration, motivation, persistence, and discipline through their work. Within this framework of order, the child progresses at their own pace and rhythm, while discovering the joys of learning, and developing social and intellectual discipline.
Where possible, ChildcareCenter provides inspection reports as a service to families. This information is deemed reliable, but is not guaranteed. We encourage families to contact the daycare provider directly with any questions or concerns, as the provider may have already addressed some or all issues. Reports can also be verified with your local daycare licensing office.
