Prepared Environment

Our wonderful Montessori infant care environment is cozy, warm, and specially designed for mobility. In our lovely infant classroom setting, we foster and nurture your child’s independence. We welcome children as young as 04 weeks old and have them continue with us till they turn 16 months old and are ready to transition to move up to the young toddler environment.

Our Infant environment is a small and intimate setting with very limited spots. Our Infant teachers have been with us for many years providing consistency of care. Our teachers keep meticulous records of each Infant’s feeding, eating, drinking, sleeping and playing schedule and share the same with parents at end of each day.

Freedom within Limits

Our infant Montessori environment is a serene, loving sanctuary. The environment is mindfully and in an aesthetically pleasing way, separated into areas for playing, eating, sleeping and diapering. Unlike traditional childcare and Daycare settings, our prepared Infant environment is free of high-chairs or playpens as well as free of modern electronic gadgetry that beeps, sings or glows.
