Progressive Program Kiddie Care’s Montessori - 4-5 Year Olds

Kiddie Care offers the Montessori Method of education, for ages 2-6. This method of learning is a child-centered educational approach & has been proven successful throughout the world. Children are naturally eager for knowledge and capable of initiating learning. Montessori method touches on all areas of a child’s development—physical, social, emotional, cognitive.

There are five main areas of learning in a Montessori classroom:

Practical Life • Sensorial • Math • Language • Cultural Studies

The greatest gifts we can give our children are the roots of Responsibility & the wings of Independence.

What is our Progressive Program. Our Progressive Program brings out the maximum ability of each child.

On Fridays we also have Miss Karolina, one of our two-year-old Montessori teachers, come in to teach Spanish!

Hope to see you soon,
