About this preschool

Casa dei Bambini Montessori provides a dual-immersion (English/Spanish 50/50 model) Montessori learning environment for children ages 6 weeks through 5 years old, with two locations in Santa Maria and Vandenberg Village on California's central coast. The program emphasizes child-centered learning, outdoor classroom activities, and bilingual cognitive development.

Philosophy
The Montessori method is a unique child-centered approach to education based on Dr. Maria Montessori's observations, emphasizing child-sized furniture, outdoor play, large uninterrupted work periods, and following children's interests. The environment is considered as important, if not more so, than the teacher's lesson plans.
Ages served
6 weeks through 5 years old (infants, toddlers, and preschool)
Outdoor
Both centers are outfitted with an 'outdoor classroom' featuring mud tables, water play, log jumping, and gardening. Each age group has access to outdoor activities.
