0-3 Parent & Child Programs
A Montessori Parent and Child Program is a unique program for families to attend alongside their child. It provides a wonderful opportunity for you, as parents and carers of 0-3 year olds, to have a hands-on experience of the Montessori philosophy in action. Dr Maria Montessori believed that education begins at the moment of birth.
Operated from a purpose-built environment designed specifically for children aged 0 to 3, this program runs during term time and is led by our highly experienced Montessori educator and Director of the MITC, Bec Bridge.
Bec has carefully and thoughtfully prepared the room to support your child’s natural development, encouraging freedom to touch, manipulate, move, and explore using all their senses.
