Montessori Learning Cottage (Closed 2025)

The Montessori Learning Cottage was established in 1980 to provide early childhood education in a quality Montessori environment to a select group of children.
We provide for children between the ages of 6 weeks through 7 years.
We dedicate ourselves not only to helping children develop their academic abilities but also their whole being.
Children experience learning from basic skills appropriate to their developmental level through pre-school, pre-kindergarten, kindergarten and beyond.
A natural extension of the Montessori program is to assist children in developing mentally, physically and socially.
