Why Danbury Families Choose and love Our Montessori Toddler Program

 

1. Develop Independence & Confidence

Our toddler program gives children just enough control to feel self-confident and competent. Activities include:

  • Self-care skills

  • Care of the environment

  • Respect for others

By the time toddlers are ready for preschool, they are confident, capable, and excited to learn — giving your child a strong foundation for future academic success.


2. Experienced Montessori Teachers

Our teachers are specially certified in Montessori for Toddlers, with most having over ten years of experience. This continuity allows toddlers to form strong, loving bonds, which support emotional intelligence, social skills, and self-esteem.

Teachers carefully refresh classrooms with Montessori materials that stimulate curiosity and challenge toddlers’ abilities, giving them a deep sense of satisfaction and confidence.


3. Calm, Engaging Classrooms 

Our bright, airy classrooms allow toddlers to:

  • Paint, cook, and water the garden

  • Sing songs and enjoy circle time

  • Work with hands-on Montessori materials

  • Explore STEAM concepts through fun, purposeful activities

The result? A peaceful yet active environment where toddlers thrive and develop concentration, focus, and impulse control.


4. Language & Social Development

Toddlers are immersed in a language-rich environment, including:

  • Interactive conversation

  • Storytelling, songs, and literature

  • Circle time discussions about nature, science, seasons, and health

They also learn to make friends, share, and function as part of a caring community, building a foundation for lifelong social and emotional skills.

Your toddler will engage in activities that encourage:

  • Science: plants, animals, weather, seasons

  • Technology & engineering: stacking, building, rolling, patterning

  • Art & music: painting, movement, sensory play

These experiences spark curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking — preparing your child for future learning in Danbury and beyond.
