About this preschool

Happy Tots Montessori & Infant Center is a Montessori-based program emphasizing hands-on learning and creative problem-solving. The school follows the Montessori philosophy where children drive their own learning through self-motivation and independence.

Philosophy
Montessori education rooted in the idea that true learning stems from a child's self-motivation. The Montessori environment is meticulously designed to empower children to develop their abilities independently. Adults guide by preparing the space, providing resources, and offering support, but the child drives their own learning, persisting in tasks through intrinsic engagement. This approach fosters a love of lifelong learning and creates a holistic educational experience.
