Explore what we offer
At Monty Roots, we provide a warm and nurturing Montessori-inspired environment designed to foster your child’s development in all areas—social, emotional, cognitive, and physical. With our small group size of only four children, we offer an intimate, personalized experience where each child can receive the individualized care and attention they need to thrive. Here’s what sets us apart:
-Montessori-Based Learning: Our curriculum is rooted in the Montessori philosophy, offering hands-on activities and materials that promote independence, problem-solving, and practical life skills. We encourage children to explore at their own pace and develop a genuine love for learning.
- No screen time: we believe young children learn best through direct experiences, social interaction, and active play. That’s why we have a no screen time policy focusing entirely on hands-on activities that engage their senses and minds.
- No containers: this allows babies the freedom of movement and exploration and promotes natural physical development, and motor skills.
- Healthy, Home-Cooked Meals: We believe in nourishing the body as well as the mind. Our daycare provides healthy, balanced, and home-cooked meals, with accommodations for dietary restrictions.
- Safe, Homelike Environment: Our cozy home daycare offers a safe, welcoming space where children feel at ease. The familiar, home-like setting helps ease the transition from home to daycare, providing comfort and security for both children and parents.
- Outdoor Exploration: We incorporate outdoor play and nature exploration into our daily routine, giving children the opportunity to develop motor skills, foster creativity, and cultivate a love for the natural world.
- Strong Social Bonds: In our close-knit environment, children form strong connections with their peers and caregiver. This small group setting promotes empathy, cooperation, and social development in a family-like atmosphere.
- Parental Partnership: At Monty Roots, we use the Brightwheel app to keep families connected and informed about their child’s day. This secure and user-friendly platform allows us to share real-time updates, including daily activities, meals, naps, and developmental milestones. Parents can view photos, receive messages, and track their child’s progress throughout the day, creating a transparent and collaborative environment. By using Brightwheel, we ensure that each family stays engaged and confident in their child’s learning journey at Monty Roots.
- Flexible hours: while our part and full time hours are set, we can accommodate different schedules with prior notice. You can add on an additional hour to the start or end of your day, at $25 an hour.
At Monty Roots, we are committed to providing a rich, supportive environment that helps your child grow confidently while fostering a lifelong love of learning. We strive to create a community where children feel valued, respected, and free to express their full potential.
