Since 1985, our commitment to providing the highest quality child care services has been our number one priority and this is what makes Rainbow Montessori Learning Center & Daycare the obvious choice to meet your child's needs.

Our Mission
 
Rainbow Montessori's mission is to offer a loving atmosphere where the child can grow uniquely to be himself/herself through the use of special materials.  Rainbow Montessori offers an environment that is clean, comfortable, fun, exciting, and a dynamic place for children to play and learn.

Our carefully prepared environment helps the child unfold the true nature of himself/herself.  The child teaches himself/herself through ordered, sequential, and manipulative materials that refine the senses and develop the intellect under the guidance of certified Montessori Teachers.
 
Our Philosophy 
We recognize each child as an individual with unique capabilities, needs, and desires.  We would like to focus our attention at the following basic needs of the child.

• Security, a feeling of belonging to the family and social group
• A need to adapt to the forces of his environment
• Desire for self-expression & freedom to show individuality
• Achievement of success so that the child discovers his/her own capabilities and self-worth.

We also recognize the parents as the primary care givers of their children. The child acquires a basic attitude of love, reverence, and respect from the beliefs, values, and attitudes of his/her parents.

We offer the following:

Meals:
Breakfast, Hot noon meal and snacks provided to all children that attend.
