Our Mission
"Casa dei Bambini" was the first school Dr. Montessori opened in Rome, Italy, and still stands today. The English translation means "The Children's House".
Casa Montessori is committed to creating a supportive and enriching environment where young children can thrive and develop essential skills. Our mission is to honor the whole child, invite learning, protect focus, and share a love for life through the Montessori approach. We are dedicated to empowering young learners, preparing them for a future full of exploration and growth.
About
a message from the founder
I discovered Montessori as a young mom. I desperately wanted to know how to strike the balance between giving my kids the structure they needed, and the freedom to develop and discover who they were.
My Montessori journey has forever changed the way I interact with children (and all people). The fruit of Montessori has been beyond amazing. I could not have imagined there would be so much calm, joy, order, and success in my relationships with young children.
I am committed to Montessori's method because I know it works! I have seen even very young children do amazing things. All they needed were adults who understood how to not get in the way, and to give them the support they truly needed.
Here at Casa, we strive to live what Dr. Montessori taught, and "follow the child".
With open arms, we welcome you to our Casa! Our deepest wish is that you will find community and peace for your own family here!
