Description: At AM, you will discover a warm, welcoming community. Our school environment and curriculum provide children ages 18 months to 6 years with a life-long love of learning. Our Montessori teachers are AMI trained in using Dr. Montessori's methods and materials to lovingly guide each child in developing unique abilities within a carefully planned curriculum. At AM, everyone is encouraged to ask questions and broaden their understanding of themselves, others and the world around them. Our goal is to nurture a child's love of learning and sense of social and personal responsibility using the child-centered Montessori philosophy and curriculum to develop the intellectual, compassion, physical, artistic, and academic excellence inherent in each child.
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.
