Wee Care Montessori, Norwalk

Preschool Program (2 Years to Kindergarten Entry Level) The age range that our Norwalk location caters to is the most important period, developmentally in a person’s life; Dr. Montessori described the three to six year old child as having an “absorbent mind”. She believed that children of this age group has an “intense mental activity” which translates into a need to process and learn as much new information through their environment as possible. At Wee Care, our curriculum is designed to assist children in acquiring the information from the environment to develop social skills and self-confidence, which are needed to fulfill his/her own learning process. The classrooms are designed to adapt to the size, pace, and interests of girls and boys between the ages of two to six. Our experienced and qualified teachers direct the activity, but the child is the one who learns and is motivated by the work itself. We try to help your child to be a leader with plenty of confidence under his/her belt to face the challenges in years to come. At Wee Care, children have the freedom to handle materials that will demonstrate basic educational information to him/her in order to develop his/her whole personality. We allow children to select inpidual activities that correspond to their own interests in a classroom that has been designed to facilitate this. Children will begin with the simplest of exercises based on activities that all children enjoy. The equipment, which he/she uses at our Center will help develop the concentration, coordination and working habits necessary for more advanced exercises that will be performed at a later stage. We are confident that children that complete our preschool program using the Montessori methods are well rounded and academically prepared to a different level than their peers who may not have had the opportunity to experience.
