Montessori
Come discover the magic of a Montessori education! We are a YEAR ROUND, full-day Montessori school for ages 18 months through 6th grade. Our internationally recognized Montessori Program embraces nature and the individualized curriculum is designed to match your child's personal development and potential! Albemarle Montessori is a warm, friendly school designed to enrich your child’s whole being. Our Montessori classrooms are beautifully prepared environments designed to meet the needs and development of your child at each age level. Every material in the classroom supports an aspect of child development, creating a link between your child’s natural interests to the classroom work. Your child will be able to learn through their own experience and at their own pace. This educational approach was developed by Dr. Maria Montessori and provides for a deeper understanding of language, mathematics, science, geography, history, music, art, social interactions, and so much more! Montessori is one of the fastest growing forms of education in this country, and we adhere to the highest Montessori standards at AMCC. We are the only AMI-recognized school in Central Virginia, with classrooms for varying age groups. Our Toddler/Pre-Primary Program has eighteen-month-olds to three-year-olds, and lays a foundation for independence and an introduction to practical life. Our Primary Classes are for ages three through six, and offers a three year long comprehensive Montessori program that will successfully bring your child through his or her Kindergarten year. Our Elementary Program has first through sixth graders and promotes exploration, collaborative work, research projects, gregarious and independent lessons, and interactive discovery in every subject. Recent research in child development and education highlights the quality of the Montessori method for educating children and the life-long benefits they gain. The children develop critical-thinking skills, self-confidence, self-initiative, and emotional intelligence. The end result is that your child is prepared academically, socially, and emotionally with a deeper understanding of the concepts and theories that are the foundation of a quality education – all while retaining a love of learning and the acquisition of knowledge! Our founder, envisioned Albemarle Montessori Children's Community to be a school that made the highest quality Montessori education available for the everyday working family.

We believe this is a true testament to the quality of our babysitters and service! We take great pride in being able to match families up with trustworthy, creative, and dependable babysitters. As a mom myself, I would settle for nothing less. As a locally based service, we interview all of our babysitters during a very thorough screening process. We are also privileged to connect directly with local families who join ASAPS - and maintain a relationship with both our babysitters and families on an ongoing basis. We're very exited about how ASAPSitters has continued to grow and how we are a little part of that &quot;village&quot; it takes to raise a child. We are working on expanding our services to meet the needs of families in other nearby areas. In 2012, we opened a new branch in Charlottesville, VA in addition to our DC Metro area region.

I am a 50-something, experienced mom looking to keep children in my home. I am a former audiologist and have developed and run many programs around youth and families through the years. I have years of experience in the medical field as well as with school systems and community agencies. I've had many foster kids and adopted one, who is now 10 years old and flourishing. I am very flexible with scheduling. One reason I am looking to stay home is that reliable childcare for school holidays is sometimes a challenge (so I understand the need for flexibility firsthand). We have a great, safe yard for playing and are within walking distance of a great park. We are also on the city bus line and have many opportunities for fun and stimulation here in town. I am a homeschooling mom at heart - I find opportunities for learning at every turn. Believe it or not, I love older kids and teens as well as infants and toddlers. I provide an enriched and enriching environment, good nutrition, help with homework, tutoring, mentoring and lots of love and encouragement. Find out more. I'd love to hear from you!
