Mansio Montessori offers a robust Montessori toddler program designed to support your child’s growth and development. Our goal is to foster a love of learning, which will serve as a foundation for years of exploration of the world around them. The Montessori approach encourages a secure environment to foster confidence while providing a positive, loving space for your child to thrive in each day.

2-3 year olds

Our Montessori toddler program for children 2 to 3 years of age provides an encouraging, interactive, and positive space for them to work on self-care, which instills confidence and increases self-esteem. Our Montessori program focuses heavily on leading your child toward independence. As a parent, that allows you to know your child’s education foundation is developing in a way that fits their unique interests while also being rooted in developing strong independence. Our older toddler program has a teacher-to-child ratio of 1:8.

Curriculum

The curriculum for the older toddler program focuses on building on the Montessori philosophy in a positive way. This includes providing all of the tools your child needs to fully explore things that interest them. Children are able to choose a work that inspires them and have the tools to pursue it fully.


Our goal here is to continue to foster independence and emotional growth in your child. He or she will engage with staff using proper language to develop vocabulary. They also engage in activities that encourage proper movement to develop coordination.



We also observe your child throughout their development so that we can provide the proper materials and resources to support their independent growth.

Atmosphere

The Montessori classroom feels much like home and far less like a traditional school. Here, you are not likely to see desks lined up and a teacher at the front of the room. In our toddler program, you’ll see a room that is divided into various workstations where children can move and learn as they would like to, based on what interests them. Children receive positive encouragement though they make their own work choices.

Learning Materials

The learning materials for our older toddler program encourage easy access to manipulatives of all types. The space fits their unique needs, with furniture that’s sized appropriately and areas where children can nestle in and read. The area is organized and easy to navigate but provides a wealth of opportunities to engage in something new or pursue something that interests them more fully.


Your child gains the ability to engage in the learning process fully at this age. That helps to facilitate their development of coordination, independence, and concentration. Your child has access to all of the learning materials to encourage this development.

Empathy Program

Mansio offers a new social-emotional learning program to the students at the preschool level. Knowing what empathy means is one thing; putting it into practice is another thing. In our weekly classes we talk about kindness, role-modeling altruism, and practicing teamwork which positively impacts character development. This program lays the foundation for these all-important empathy skills by providing students with opportunities to identify individuals who demonstrate kindness, empathy, and emotional literacy towards others.
