follows the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori. They believe, as she did, that within each preschool child is the seed of unlimited potential, which will guide the child into adulthood. They emphasize individualized education as opposed to strict curricular education utilized within a daycare setting. Children are educated at their own rate of development. Their focus is to continually stimulate the child through an enriched environment with activities, materials, and extensions that promote experimentation at every developmental level. In essence, they offer the world on a silver platter knowing that the innate curiosity of children will promote independence, exploration, experimentation, and creativity.

Recent research shows that at least 80 percent of a child’s brain development occurs by the age of three. It suggests that as much as 30 percent of a youngster’s brain capacity can be lost without a nurturing early environment that encourages learning. Adventure Montessori believes that the most important years of a child’s education are not high school and college, but the preschool years which are within the first six years of a child’s life. Consequently, Adventure Montessori regards infant and early childcare education as the very foundation of everything that follows. Their goal is treat each student as an individual. This philosophy is in direct opposition to a traditional daycare setting. Respecting and responding to each student on an individual basis produces self-discipline and a life-long love of learning.
