Children’s House

At The Montessori Attic, our Children's House serves as a nurturing ground for young minds to flourish. We embrace a mixed-age environment, inspired by Dr. Maria Montessori's vision, where children from 2½ to 6 years old learn alongside one another, fostering a sense of community and collaboration.

We are proud to be partnering with The Social Co-op beginning January 2024!
