Our Facilities
We Are Providing an Environment for Our Students to Grow & Excel
Our caring, dedicated, nurturing, Montessori trained staff meet the needs of children in a home-like setting. Our teacher has Association Montessori International (AMI) training and a Master of Education degree. Through the use of the internationally approved Montessori philosophy, each child is guided to become all that they be. Beautifully prepared indoor and outdoor environments are set up at our location. Gardening, cooking, and working with the appealing Montessori materials, are part of each days choices the child makes to enhance his or her mind, body, and spirit. Parent Education Classes are also available.
Scientific research has shown that the First Plane of Development (ages 0-6), is the most critical developmental period in a child’s life. It is the time to give your child the best of what culture and the world has to offer them.
At Montessori Discovery Garden, located 3 blocks from Fairburn Ave. Elementary School, M.F.A. degreed Art and Music teachers work with the children each week as part of our regular program. The development of a foreign language (Spanish) is also encouraged by our part-time Spanish teacher. Yoga classes are also available once a week.
A Message From
Maria Montessori
“The most important period of life is not the age of university studies, but the first one, the period from birth to the age of six. For that is the time when Man’s intelligence itself is being formed.”
Testimonials
What Parents are Saying
“We felt very safe sending our child there, and they were exceptionally accommodating to all the various schedule changes mounted by the uncertain times. I really could write a book on how we feel their attention and devotion allowed our daughter to safely manage the pandemic with appropriate socialization and safety.”
“After searching for about two months for the right preschool I was so lucky to find Montessori Discovery Garden. Almost as soon as I stepped inside the door I felt this was a place for my daughters. Such a personal and calm environment where at the same time children’s curiosity and desire to learn is nurtured.”
“My daughter has attended Montessori Discovery Garden for 2 years now and we absolutely love it. I toured over 20 preschools (was touring even before she was born!) and MDG was on my top 10 list.
The teachers are kind, compassionate and patient. Emotional intelligence, as well as social and cognitive learning are priority.”
