Toad Hill Toddler House

One of the sweetest parts of a Montessori environment is watching older children naturally connect with and care for the younger ones ✨

We had some very excited kiddos today 🚒 Thank you for visiting and letting us check out those huge wheels!

Infant openings available in Madison! ☀️

Toad Hill Toddler House is now enrolling ages 3–12 months. We provide loving small-group care with Montessori learning and outdoor exploration.

We have a RARE infant opening for June 22, 2026! ✨ Reach out to [email protected] to learn more.

Our garden got a few new helpers today 🌱🪴 The toddlers spent the morning planting herbs and vegetables, watering carefully, digging in the dirt, and proudly checking their work😊 These simple moments hold so much learning.

Language is exploding in the toddler years ✨

Children at this age can absorb dozens of new words each week, and their natural drive for language is incredible to watch. In Montessori, language cards help connect vocabulary to real-life experiences.

The variety of language we offer matters — because vocabulary can grow endlessly. 💛

The older nido group of children sat so focused at the table preparing strawberries🍓 They were determined to do every step themselves.

Montessori teaches even the smallest everyday tasks can become meaningful work for little hands ❤️
