From birth, babies are marvelous learners, immediately investigating the sights, sounds and feel of the world. Our teachers are models for the students and interact with the babies through singing, speaking, rocking, holding, laughing and smiling. The Montessori education at this level is based on both child and brain development. Our teachers embrace a child-centered philosophy that demands a respect for the child and support for all his incredible potential. The teachers aid the child as he develops hand-eye coordination, grasping skills, fine motor skills, gross motor skills, language and coordination of their body through movement.
Toddlers are explorers full of energy. They are slowly developing their language skills, their fine and gross motor skills and their personality and intellect. Our experienced Montessori trained teachers skillfully guide them through this pivotal developmental stage. They work on several skills including
- Language : Both expressing themselves and comprehending what they hear
- Social interaction : Understand the importance of friendship and interacting respectfully with their teachers and each other
- Self-help skills : Learn to be independent from eating finger food to toileting
- Fine and gross motor skills : Using play activities and Montessori material geared for their development
- Creativity : Explore new ideas through music, art, stories, games and puzzles
For many toddlers it is their first instance of being in a classroom setting away from parents. Our teachers through consistency and sensitivity make them comfortable to the new environment that they soon start loving and enjoying.
Our toddler classrooms are geared for a safe, fun environment with lots of age appropriate Montessori educational materials. Parents are continually updated about their child's progress by weekly work folders and daily reports detailing activities, naps, food and potty training.
