Infant Program

0 – 18 months

Our Montessori Infant Program is designed to nurture the developmental needs of infants, focusing on creating a safe, calm, and stimulating environment that encourages exploration and growth. The program supports early motor skills, language development, and sensory experiences through carefully selected materials and activities. Trained caregivers provide individualized attention, fostering secure attachments and promoting independence. This early foundation lays the groundwork for a child’s future learning, emphasizing respect, trust, and the development of a love for learning from the earliest stages.

Key Features:

Prepared Environment: The Montessori infant environment is designed to be safe, calm, and conducive to exploration. The space includes low shelves, soft surfaces, and accessible materials that infants can explore independently.

Focus on Movement: Infants are given the freedom to move and explore their surroundings. The environment encourages activities like crawling, reaching, and grasping, which are essential for developing motor skills.

Sensory Exploration: Infants learn about the world through their senses. The Montessori environment includes a variety of textures, sounds, and objects for sensory exploration, which aids cognitive development.

Language Development: Language is nurtured through constant interaction with caregivers and exposure to rich vocabulary. Teachers and caregivers engage with infants through songs, conversations, and reading, laying the foundation for language acquisition.

Emotional and Social Development: A primary caregiver or teacher provides consistent, loving care, helping infants build secure attachments. This is essential for their emotional and social development.

Practical Life Activities: Even at a young age, infants are encouraged to participate in simple, practical life activities, such as helping with feeding or reaching for toys, promoting independence and coordination.
