The Montessori Method

Developed by Maria Montessori, the Montessori method of education is tried and tested with more than a century of proven success with children at the early stages of life.

Montessori schools feature a balanced curriculum that includes academics, wellness, self-awareness, conflict resolution, citizenship, and physical education.

To assist in academic achievement, the method emphasizes problem solving, critical thinking, and creative expression.

In both our infants and toddlers program and our preschool and kindergarten program, children inspire one another to become powerful learners. This is achieved by developing responsibility and independence, working cooperatively, accepting challenges, appreciating diversity, practicing effective communication, encouraging effective leadership, becoming risk takers, and building awareness.

Individualized Attention

At our Montessori school, the students, staff, families, and community work together to make teaching and learning exciting while supporting the physical, social, and emotional growth of your child. We pay individual attention to every child and allow them to work and learn at their own pace.

Infant & Toddler Care in West Covina, California

Allow your child to absorb his or her environment holistically in the infant and toddler care program at Montessori Academy of West Covina in West Covina, California. With the goal of developing children's language and motor skills, we start them in a prepared environment and gradually introduce them to stimuli and appropriate objects for sensorial experiences and manipulation.

During the first three years, the child creates the foundation for the person he or she is going to become. In this short period of movements and patterns, children acquire language and abstract thoughts begin to occur. Infants and toddlers develop large body movements and gross motor development for balance in a supervised outdoor setting, where they enjoy the outdoors and develop independence.
