Nurture Your Child’s Potential with Montessori Education

Discover the program that fits your child’s needs at Westport Montessori, where independence and a love for learning flourish.

I am a child psychologist, and so people often ask me what I look for in a daycare. I want her teachers to spend time with my kid. Talk to my kid, and use music and movement to teach my kid. To focus on being with her in the moment. And that’s what my child receives at Westport Montessori. She gets excited to arrive at school even though she’s only 1. She smiles when I pass her off to her teachers. Her verbal skills are really developing, and she is always reading books at school. I’m so glad to have a place to send my child that meets her needs.

I wanted to share that we are very proud of how our children are developing academically through your Montessori program. We are happy to report they are sharing the learning at home and feel proud and confident. These ages are critical for future success and we appreciate the caring community you provide. Thank you for all you do.
