HOW MONTESSORI PROGRAMS WORK

Montessori is a well-known and respected educational approach that was developed by Dr. Maria Montessori in the early 1900s. The Montessori method is based on the belief that children are naturally curious and have an innate desire to learn.

At Little Orchard, our Montessori programs focus on fostering independence, self-confidence, and a love for learning in each child. Our classrooms are carefully designed with developmentally appropriate materials that allow children to explore and discover at their own pace.

What Makes Our Educational Programs Great?

There are several qualities that we believe make our preschool, pre-K, daycare, after-school programs, and other childcare programs so beneficial:

  • Experienced staff: Our teachers and caregivers are highly experienced and trained in early childhood education, ensuring that your child receives the best care and education possible.
  • Socialization opportunities: Our programs allow children to interact and socialize with their peers, helping them build important social skills and form valuable friendships.
  • Individualized attention: We believe in providing individualized attention to each child, tailoring our activities and curriculum to their specific needs and interests.
  • Safe and nurturing environment: The safety and well-being of our students is our top priority. Our facilities are designed to provide a safe and nurturing environment for children to learn and grow.
  • Holistic approach: We take a holistic approach to education, focusing not just on academic development but also on emotional, physical, and social growth.

At Little Orchard, we understand that choosing the right childcare program can be a daunting task. That’s why we offer open houses and tours for interested families to come see our facility, meet our staff, and ask any questions they may have.

Benefits of After-School Programs

There are several specific benefits of after-school programs for kids of varying ages:

  • Help with homework: Many after-school programs offer designated homework time and provide assistance if needed. This is especially helpful for working parents who may not have the time to sit down with their child every day to go over assignments.
  • Enrichment activities: After-school programs often offer a variety of enrichment activities such as arts and crafts, music lessons, sports, and educational workshops. These can help children explore their interests and gain new skills outside of the traditional classroom setting.
  • Safe and supervised environment: After-school programs provide a safe and structured environment for kids to spend their afternoons while their parents are at work. This can give peace of mind to busy parents who may not be able to arrange for childcare during this time.

We’ve had a wonderful experience at Little Orchard Preschool. They’ve done an excellent job helping both my daughter and son build early reading skills, and we’ve been so impressed with the thoughtful, intentional way they teach.

One thing that truly stands out is how well Ms. Michelle knows the children and their families. Despite having multiple classes, she knows every child by name and recognizes which parents or caregivers belong with each child at pickup. That level of care and attention makes a huge difference and speaks volumes about the environment they create.

We are so grateful for this school and the loving, supportive community they provide.
