Infant and Toddler

"The first two years of life are the most important. Observations prove that small children are endowed with special psychic powers, and point to new ways of drawing them out, literally 'educating by cooperating with nature.' So here begins the new path, wherein it will not be the professor who teaches the child, but the child who teaches the professor."
Education for a New World-Dr. Maria Montessori

The Infant and Toddler Program prepares adults to work with children to three years of age. Classes meet for five weeks in the summer with scheduled fall and spring seminars to complete the Academic Phase at the Montessori Institute with access to its Infant and Toddler environments. This unique feature of the program provides optimal learning experiences for each student. The program has two phases, which include academic preparation and a supervised internship
