Our mission is to prepare children for life.


We celebrate each child’s individuality and help them discover how they can best contribute to our world and culture. All children are naturally curious and love to learn; we support this innate drive by providing environments that meet children’s developmental needs, by having a consistent staff of loving and highly educated teachers, and by building a community of families that actively support our mission.

Why do so many families choose Wheaton Montessori?

Lessons are designed and given to each child when they are most ready to learn, which keeps everyone challenged.

Social, emotional, and physical development is emphasized along with and through academic skills.

Freedom to move and choose activities and socialize within our unique structure fosters independence and self-confidence.

Current neuroscience and human development research consistently backs authentic, high-fidelity Montessori.
