Mangrove Preschool

Let the children be free; encourage them; let them run outside when it is raining; let them remove their shoes when they find a puddle of water; and, when the grass of the meadows is damp with dew, let them run on it and trample it with their bare feet; let them rest peacefully when a tree invites them to sleep beneath it's shade; let them shout and laugh when the sun wakes them in the morning as it wakes every living creature that divides its day between waking and sleeping.When children come into contact with nature, they reveal their strength.

Do you hope to ignite your young child’s love of learning and lay the foundation for a fulfilling future? The Montessori approach to early childhood education will begin that process in a joyful, secure, and loving environment in which your young child will thrive.
The environment encourages preschoolers to explore and discover, to collaborate with classmates, and to take ownership of their education. The Montessori Method encourages self-directed learning that promotes self-confidence, independent thought and action, and critical thinking, while fostering social-emotional and intellectual growth.
Education for peace is a foundational component of Montessori education at all levels. At the Early Childhood level, the teaching of peace, social justice, and global citizenship is based on fostering respect for all people and living things, and helping children learn the tools for peaceful conflict resolution.

Montessori in Infancy supports your baby on their innate mission to learn and leads to a uniquely child-led experience that truly makes life more peaceful for you and baby.

Incorporating Montessori principles with babies looks like:

Creating a consistent, intentional environment for baby to move and explore freely
Incorporating toys (known as materials in the Montessori world) that support baby’s current developmental stage
Offering purposeful and connected interactions with baby that lead to a strong attachment
Honoring baby’s sensitive periods – a term used to describe a time in development when baby is unconsciously driven to a specific part of their growth and learning
Honoring baby within everything we do
Honoring yourself as an vital and beautiful piece your and your baby’s journeys
And MUCH much more!

Speak to your children as if they are the wisest, kindest, most beautiful and magical humans on earth, for what they believe is what they will become.

“The goal of early childhood education should be to activate the child’s own natural desire to learn.”  Maria Montessori 🥰

Children are human beings to whom respect is due, superior to us by reason of their innocence and of the greater possibilities of their future. Maria Montessori
