Holistic Education
We embrace the Montessori Method, nurturing children’s physical, emotional, social and cognitive development.
Our Philosophy
The Montessori method in Anaheim
Nurturing young minds with the time-tested approach of Dr. Maria Montessori — hands-on, child-centered learning that builds independence and confidence.
1870 – 1952
Dr. Maria Montessori
Dr. Montessori was the first woman in Italy to qualify as a physician.
She developed an interest in the needs of children said to be “uneducable,” and created a teaching program that enabled them to read and write.
Rather than having children repeatedly attempt a skill, she designed exercises that prepare them for it. Those exercises are then repeated: looking becomes reading; touching becomes writing. The success of her method led her to question “normal” education itself.

Good to Know
Montessori questions, answered
Who was Dr. Maria Montessori?
Dr. Maria Montessori (1870–1952) was the first woman in Italy to qualify as a physician. She developed a teaching approach built on preparatory, hands-on exercises — looking becomes reading and touching becomes writing — that became the Montessori method used worldwide.
How is a Montessori classroom different from a traditional preschool?
Montessori classrooms use mixed-age groups, self-chosen work with hands-on materials and long uninterrupted work periods, with teachers acting as guides rather than lecturers. Children progress at their own pace.
What are the benefits of Montessori education?
Montessori builds independence, concentration, self-discipline, social skills and a lasting love of learning, alongside strong early literacy and math foundations.
