I’m Adriana, owner and educator, and I’m passionate about creating a warm “home away from home” where babies and toddlers can explore, feel secure, and develop at their own pace. Our program offers a Spanish immersion experience, allowing children to naturally absorb the language through songs, stories, play, and daily routines. It’s a wonderful way to build early language skills and cultural awareness while having fun! Our days include a mix of play-based and educational activities that support curiosity, independence, and developmental milestones. With a small group size, every child receives personalized attention and loving care.

*Currently accepting EEC Childcare Vouchers!* Needham Montessori School continues a rich tradition of providing a higher standard for early childhood education through the Montessori Method. We are an American Montessori Society (AMS) Full Member School for children from 4 weeks to 12 years. Our school promotes peace, independence, responsibility, individualized & group learning, respect for others and appreciation of diversity. We maintain the educational philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori and the guidelines of The Department of Early Education and Care (EEC). Young children have an innate desire to learn. The Montessori environment provides the child with a structure that allows for freedom within limits and offers developmentally appropriate activities to aid the child in his/her growth. The development of their social, emotional, intellectual, physical and spiritual selves is our focus. The focus is on the process of learning, rather than on the product. We believe in individualizing each child’s school experience for the fullest expansion of their potential. Skills are presented that teach children how to learn and encourage them to be self-motivated and competent learners. Our teachers provide the opportunity for children to function in a safe and positive environment. This helps the child to become a passionate learner where he/she embraces and gains a sincere love for learning. Our curriculum includes Practical Life, Sensorial, Science, Language(s), Mathematics, Geography, Art, Grace and Courtesy, and Music. Most importantly, we partner with parents and caregivers to support the development of the whole child.
