The Results of a Little Beach House Montessori Infant Education
- Confidence & Independence – Your child feels empowered by their ability to interact with their surroundings and influence their environment.
- Community & Belonging – Infants become active participants in their learning space, fostering a sense of security and social connection.
- Achievement of First Milestones – Through exploration, infants experience their first accomplishments in movement, coordination, and early language.
- Self-Reliance & Autonomy – Your child naturally discovers that they can eat, sleep, and explore based on their individual needs.
Respecting Natural Rhythms
We do not enforce a rigid schedule in our infant program. Instead, we honor each child’s unique biological rhythms, allowing them to:
- Eat when hungry
- Sleep when tired
- Move freely—both indoors and outdoors
Our nurturing environment ensures that infants receive daily opportunities for movement, fresh air, and sensory exploration while also enjoying songs, stories, and loving interactions with their caregivers.


The Primary Caregiving Approach
To foster secure attachment and individualized attention, we follow a Primary Caregiving Model, ensuring that:
- Each caregiver is responsible for a small group of infants daily, building deep, trusting relationships.
- Your child receives personalized attention and care, supporting their unique developmental needs.
- Consistency and familiarity provide emotional security, making transitions smoother and strengthening the child-caregiver bond.
At Little Beach House Montessori, we believe that a strong, nurturing foundation in the early years sets the stage for a lifetime of learning, exploration, and connection.
