subject: New Montessori Infant Program Now Available [print this page] Parents of babies' ages 3-18 months now have access to two high-quality Montessori infant programs. There is a high-quality child-centered alternative to the typical daycare setting for parents of babies, says the chief executive officer of a well-known Montessori school. The Montessori program is fundamentally different from daycare: hiring trained Montessori lead teachers, maintain a 1:3 ratio verses the 1:4 ratio at most daycare centers-and have created a beautiful, tranquil Montessori environment designed to respect the unique development needs of each precious child under care.
The Montessori infant program is readily available for every Montessori children. It has the convenient schedules parents expect from a daycare center, but a very different school environment. Rather than being confined to "containers" such as highchairs, playpens, or jumpers, babies get to explore on soft floor mats; low mirrors encourage tummy time, pull-up bars and small stairs entice babies to move. A wide range of thoughtfully designed activities-wooden puzzles, textured objects, mobiles, containers to open and close- stimulate babies' growing brains, without the noisy, annoying plastic toys all too common for the children in most daycare settings.
The demand has been very overwhelming. The Montessori infant program is great to see the babies explore their home away from home. The Montessori infant program has been at capacity from the first day of school, and we have a long and growing wait list, explains the respected Vice President of Outreach. Parents of these children are discerning when it comes to choosing childcare for babies, and they vote with their feet with this high-quality daycare alternative, which is the Montessori infant program.
There is an excellent infant program in which the school expects the Montessori children to be at the capacity. At this time, spots are for immediate enrollment for the children. Interested parents may learn about the details and to register for upcoming parent-child events to experience how Montessori baby care is different from any other daycare in their place. This excellent school features a photo gallery, so parents can see for themselves just how different Montessori for babies is from traditional daycare.
Families who are interested in enrolling their baby are encouraged to be in campuses early, to secure an advantageous wait list spot well ahead they expect to need a daycare placement for their child. Expectant mothers anticipating early child care needs are welcomed to secure a wait list spot prior to their child's birth.
