Infant 

Programs

Infants are attracted to everything. They want to investigate and to touch, taste, and feel as they learn to use their senses and become more agile in their movement. Dakota Montessori School is a safe place for exploration.

Each child builds a sense of confidence in their ability to discover what the world is about. A variety of surfaces from carpet to tile to wood stimulate the infants' sense of touch. Pillows, mobiles, mirrors, and infant-size tables and chairs contribute to the infant environment. The educational focus for infants includes mobility, coordination, order, and language.

Dakota Montessori School accepts children at six weeks of age. They are free to grow and develop at their own pace, in a calm, serene environment. Most parents sense that our school provides their child something special. The child-teacher ratio is 4 to 1.
