Toddler Environment
1.5 to 3 years

At Nana’s Montessori, we understand that toddlers have specific developmental needs that form the foundation for all future learning. Our designated toddler environment is a warm, secure space that encourages movement, independence, and gentle exploration.

This specially prepared setting offers Exercises of Practical Life that allow children to engage in meaningful activities like pouring, dressing, and cleaning—helping them build motor skills, concentration, and self-confidence. With a focus on freedom within limits, our toddler program nurtures emotional security, language development, and a sense of belonging.

Casa Environment
3 to 6 years

The *Casa, or Children’s House, is where Montessori truly comes to life. Here, children experience holistic learning through purposeful work in arithmetic, language, exercises of practical life (EPL), and sensorial materials—all designed to match their sensitive periods of development.

Our mixed-age environment encourages peer learning and leadership, fostering collaboration and respect. Each child progresses at their own pace, mastering concepts through hands-on exploration and repetition. The Casa is not just a place of academic foundation—it's a space where children build character, independence, and a lifelong joy for learning.

Elementary Environment
6 to 9 years / Grades 1 to 3

Our Elementary program offers a rich and expansive journey into cosmic education, helping children understand their place in the universe and the interconnectedness of all things. Rooted in Montessori philosophy yet aligned with key elements of traditional Grade 1/2/3 learning, the curriculum extends into areas of history, geography, science, advanced language, and mathematics.

This stage is designed for higher learning—where curiosity becomes research, and questions spark discovery. With collaborative projects, moral development, and critical thinking, our Elementary environment nurtures both academic excellence and responsible global citizenship.
