If you’re looking for a nursery where your child is truly seen, heard, and encouraged to grow into their best self—welcome to Eco Montessori. You might be wondering what Montessori is all about, and how it works in a modern, eco-friendly setting like ours. At Eco Montessori, we combine the proven Montessori approach with a deep respect for the planet—creating a beautiful balance between education and environmental care. Here’s what that means for your child.
So… What Is Montessori?
Montessori is more than just a teaching method—it’s a way of understanding and supporting how children naturally learn.
Instead of a one-size-fits-all classroom, a Montessori nursery gives children:
Freedom to explore – Children balance their day by choose their own activities based on what interests them as well as being introduced to new and exciting experiences by carefully prepared teachers.
Hands-on learning – They work with real, tactile materials.
Gentle guidance – Teachers are trained to observe, support, and step in only when needed.
The result? Confident, curious, capable children who love learning.
What Makes Eco Montessori Special?
We’ve taken everything that makes Montessori special and added something close to our hearts: a strong focus on nature and sustainability.
Nature Is Part of Every Day
Children don’t just read about the natural world—they experience it. Whether it’s planting seeds, watching bugs in the garden, or jumping in muddy puddles, nature is a big part of our daily rhythm.
We Live What We Teach
Eco-friendly habits aren’t “extra” here—they’re part of everyday life. Children help sort recycling, learn to save water, and see how composting works. Our toys and materials are made from natural, sustainable materials.
We Raise Planet-Friendly Children
Our goal isn’t just to teach the alphabet and numbers—it’s to raise kind, thoughtful children who care about the world. We believe even the smallest hands can make a big difference.
Is Montessori Right for My Child?
If your child is curious, loves to explore, and thrives when given a bit of independence, Montessori could be a perfect match. Our classrooms are calm, creative spaces where children aged 6 months to 5 years to learn at their own pace, with gentle encouragement and lots of hands-on fun.
