Nature'S Way Montessori

Overview

Nature Way Montessori provides Montessori education for children from infancy through kindergarten-age, emphasising prepared environments, hands-on materials, and connection with nature. The school describes mixed-age classrooms and a focus on the whole child — social, emotional, physical and academic development.

Approach and curriculum

The program follows Montessori principles: individualized learning in carefully prepared environments, child-sized materials, and extended work periods to build concentration and independence. The school also highlights bilingual education (English and Spanish) and uses Montessori-trained guides to observe and guide each child.

Facilities, enrichment and staff

Indoor classrooms designed at child scale with Montessori materials and low shelves.
Outdoor garden used year-round for botany, cooking and snacks.
Weekly music classes and monthly visits from specialist musicians for older children.
Staff described as Montessori-trained; the school references background checks, CPR/First Aid training for staff, and an emergency plan.

Admissions and community

Applications are accepted year-round with contracts offered based on classroom space. Tours are required before applying and are held monthly; the school requests an observation visit for families prior to enrollment. The school describes an active parent community and parent education opportunities.
