History

Since moving to Arizona, she has consulted for numerous Montessori schools and families around the Valley, educating school directors, teachers, and parents on proper Montessori methods, principles, and equipment.

Specialties

Little People Montessori in Chandler, Arizona is a preschool offering early childhood education using the traditional Montessori Method. We enroll infants 6 months or younger and serve them up until they are ready to leave for kindergarten. We provide children with the opportunity to learn about the world around them through their environment, nature, and hands-on activities. From the earliest age, the children are taught the skills necessary to do things for themselves, satisfying the very young child's desire to get started on the road to independence. The Montessori Method provides practical activities that allow very young children to develop interpersonal skills with other children and with the adults in their lives. We partner with parents to help them see what is needed to challenge and support their children at home in the same way that we challenge them at school. We provide parents with regular updates that include photographs, development notes, and information about Montessori principles that can be used in the home to continue the child's development.
