Welcome to Montessori Works, where your child’s journey towards independence, self-confidence and a lifelong love of learning begins. Established in 1991 by a passionate group of parents seeking high-quality education, Montessori Works has become a pioneer in offering a Montessori philosophy and environment in a long day childcare setting for children from birth to six years.
A Montessori Education Tailored to Your Child’s Needs
At Montessori Works, we understand that every child is unique, with individual interests and developmental needs. Our thoughtfully designed environment is divided into specific areas that cater to different age groups:
Nido (0-2.5 Years) – A Nest for Exploration
In our NIDO or “nest” for infants and toddlers, we provide a warm, nurturing space filled with sensory and motor materials that encourage your child to explore and discover. With the guidance of caring educators, your child will develop independence and communication skills through engaging music, movement and art experiences.
Children’s House (2-5 Years) – A Community for Growth
Our Children’s House is a vibrant community where children engage in purposeful play, fostering their imagination and creativity. Here, your child will explore five key areas of activity:
Practical Life Exercises: Learning to care for themselves, others and their environment, establishing a foundation of responsibility and independence.
Sensorial Apparatus: Awakening the senses and developing cognitive skills through the exploration of shapes, colours, textures and sounds.
Language Program: Building a strong foundation in language, with activities that develop speech, writing, reading and an early understanding of grammar.
Number Work: Introducing mathematical concepts, including the decimal system, geometry and algebra, in a hands-on and meaningful way.
Cultural Area: Expanding your child’s understanding of the world through geography, biology, history, art and music.
