Infancy (2 months to 3 years)

For children under the age of three, there are two Montessori environments. The Parent-Infant class provides a setting in which parents and their children, ages 2 to 16 months, interact under the guidance of a trained adult. After they begin to walk, children join the toddler community where basic motor coordination, independence and language development are fostered and individual personality is respected. Rather than a classroom, it is a nurturing environment where very young children experience their first structured contact with other children.
