The Athena Montessori Children's Program started its journey in 2018 with humble beginnings, welcoming just two children in a cozy home setting. Since then, our growth has been remarkable. Over the years, we have continually enhanced our facility and offerings to create a nurturing and educational environment for children aged 18 months to 6 years.

Our teachers, with Montessori certifications and experience, excel at fostering creative and independent thinking in children, making learning fun and enjoyable.
Athena Montessori Children’s Program facilities are designed to inspire and engage young minds. Our spacious, naturally lit classrooms have various Montessori materials to support hands-on learning. Our outdoor play areas offer a safe and stimulating physical activity and exploration environment. Daily activities are thoughtfully planned to foster independence, creativity, and a love for learning. Children enjoy a balanced mix of individual and group activities, including art, music, science, and practical life skills, all tailored to their developmental needs and interests.
At Athena Montessori Children’s Program, we value community involvement and the celebration of special events. We organize a variety of activities that bring together students, families, and staff to cultivate a strong sense of community. Our events include cultural celebrations, seasonal festivals, and community service projects, offering children opportunities to learn about different cultures, develop social skills, and experience the joy of giving back. Through these community engagements, we strive to create a supportive and inclusive environment that extends beyond the classroom.
I have used this provider for more than 6 months. My son has been going to Mrs.H for a few months now and I can already say how much we will miss her when he starts kindergarten next year. I have complete confidence that he will not only have the knowledge (abc’s, etc), but will be prepared for so many life skills he’ll encounter in school and elsewhere in life. The attention to detail is the best I have ever seen from a daycare provider. My son loves going there, and actually prefers to be at school than at home most days. I would highly recommend this Montessori school to anyone I meet!!
