Preschool
At LTM we believe in the “whole child” approach. The primary goal of our Montessori program is to help each child reach their full potential in all areas of life. Activities promote the development of social skills, emotional growth, and physical coordination as well as cognitive preparation. The holistic curriculum, under the direction of specially prepared teachers, allows the child to experience the joy of learning, time to enjoy the process and insure the development of self-esteem, and provides the experiences from which children create their knowledge. Music, art, storytelling, movement and drama are an integral part of our curriculum as well as other things particular to the Montessori environment that encourage creative development: many materials that stimulate interest and involvement; an emphasis on the sensory aspect of experience; and the opportunity for both verbal and nonverbal modes of learning. The staff at LTM respects each child’s learning style and academic, emotional and physical needs. Each child has the opportunity to work at an individual pace, to explore personal interests, while at the same time, develop skills in how to collaborate, learn from, and teach others. By observing the children in the prepared environment, we can see that we are successful when we see a confident student, ready to explore, creatively problem solve and express concern and empathy for others.

They leave ready for school—and for life💙

We are an enthusiastic team dedicated to guide them with fun activities as they learn about the world around them. Our location has been renovated into a child safe, hazard free zone with 24-hour surveillance, where I follow all of NYS Child day care provisions. A schedule of balanced playtime, indoor/outdoor learning activities (weather permitting) and mealtimes. We have a history of Volunteering on weekends with Autistic children, where we would do Art and Music Therapy with them while their parents had a Saturday morning and afternoon off. We are open Monday thru Friday and from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. with flexible early drop off and late pick ups when necessary. The rate-list is broken down by the amount of days a week and amount of daily hours needed by the parent. (Average tuition rates vary beginning as low as $1000/mo up to $1400/mo depending on schedule needed.) Our daily goal is to engage your child in productive activity as well as meet all of your needs in the process.
