The Fairmount community and beyond is so lucky to have this school join the neighborhood. All of the staff pours their hearts and souls into caring for the little ones. Because it is a start up, everyone from the teachers/staff/parents/ children truly treat each other like family. The space itself is warm and inviting. It creates an environment for kids to be imaginative, creative, independent and encouraged to learn. Unlike some Montessori’s, it is true to the principles and practices of the Montessori method. Everything is crafted with the intention of building a strong foundation for the children to be confident in their skills in both life and learning. Allowing them to thrive at an early age. It also offers unique education you won’t find in traditional schools that expands a child’s horizon. I love how the kids get to learn about subjects such as nature, the seasons, where food comes from and how it’s grown, cooking, art, yoga and brings in people from the local community to share their crafts and areas of expertise. I highly recommend this as an option for early childhood education. It is such a sweet and special place!
