The first three years of life are the most fundamental in the development of human beings and their potential. It is a period when the core of personality, social skills, and human values are developed. An understanding of the child's development allows Montessori environments to meet the needs of the infant and foster a sense of belonging, independence, and language acquisition enabling children to feel able and capable. 

Our infant community environments cares for children from approximately fourteen months to three years that focus on developing movement, language, and independence within a social context.
