Enroll and settle in
Complete enrollment and plan a first week that suits your child's routine. Our goal is to create a learning environment where children feel valued, respected, and inspired to become confident, capable learners. We have changed ownership. For tours and updated tuition and policy please email Alisha@themontessorischoolhouse.org.
What to have ready
Bring your enrollment forms, filled out completely. Families also bring a health form and immunization record. It helps to have emergency contacts and the names of people allowed to pick up your child.
Pack a full change of clothes for your child, including socks and underwear. Add outdoor gear for the season, such as a hat, mittens, or rain boots. Nap items matter too, so bring a small blanket and sheet if your child rests. Label everything with your child's name. A comfort object from home helps the first days feel steady.
Before the first day, talk with your child about the drop-off routine. Decide who will bring your child in and who will pick up. Tell the teacher how you prefer to hear about the day, whether at pickup or by email. Ask about anything that will help your child settle. The team can answer your questions when you get in touch.
The first weeks
The first days often start with shorter visits. Your child might come for an hour, then stay a little longer. A familiar object from home can help. A teacher greets your child by name at the door. That small welcome tells your child they are expected and known here.
At pickup, teachers tell you what your child did and how they ate and rested. Some children settle in a few days, others take a few weeks. If your child is still finding it hard, ask what you can do at home.
What families ask
What about tuition?
Ask about current rates when you call or tour. They depend on your child's age and schedule.
What ages do you take?
Children from 18 months to 5 years.
Can we visit before deciding?
Yes. A tour is how most families decide, and children are welcome to come along.
What should my child bring on the first day?
For a first day, families usually pack a change of clothes in case of spills or accidents. A comfort item from home, like a small toy or blanket, can help your child feel settled. Label everything with your child's name so nothing gets lost.
What does a typical day include?
A day is usually built around arrival, play and learning, meals and rest, outdoor time, and pickup. Children explore, create, and grow at their own pace. To ask how the day runs for your child's age, call or email the school.
How will I know how my child is doing?
Parents usually hear about the day at pickup, when a teacher can share a few details. If you want to know more, you can ask a teacher directly. The team is ready to answer your questions and tell you how your child is doing.
Do you offer part-time or flexible schedules?
Schedules depend on your child's age group and what openings we have. Please ask us what is available for your child, and we will tell you what we can offer.
What if there is no place right now?
If a place is not open right now, you can ask to be told when one opens for your child's age. We will keep your request and let you know when something becomes available.
What should I ask on the tour?
Ask about hours, meals, and pickup times first, because those shape your family's day. Ask how the first weeks are handled, since settling in looks different for every child. Ask how the day runs, from arrival to rest to outdoor time, so you can picture your child's room.
