Children’s House Montessori, Agoura Hills is committed to providing the highest quality learning environment for children.
We have implemented a “prepared environment” for all the children to have an opportunity to be successful and to reach their full potential.
Our teachers are carefully selected for their Montessori–based belief that children grow and learn best in a loving and nurturing environment. Their job is to encourage the child’s natural curiosity, to provide ample opportunities for exploration and discovery. They help to direct the child to develop the skills needed to succeed and experience the thrill of independent accomplishment.
Our Montessori teachers, in addition to having Early Childhood Education Certification, are all trained in the use of materials designed to stimulate discovery while developing the skills necessary for accomplishing tasks.
Our Director Mrs. Erin has a rich educational background which spans 15 years in both elementary teaching roles and executive administration in a directorial position.
Maria Montessori was born in 1870 in Italy. Although her teachers and father did not agree with her decision to pursue an education in science, she would soon become Italy’s first female physician.
Associated with the University of Rome, Maria Montessori was a scientist, not a teacher; this is important to note. The Montessori method evolved almost by accident and came from a small experiment that Dr. Montessori carried out. Her findings stem from her recognition of the nature of children and their innate traits, rather than her ability to teach.
