I am truly grateful every day for this amazing school; for all the teachers, assistants/aides, and volunteers. Small World Montessori is a hidden gem! Small World Montessori offers a superb learning environment and a welcoming community of families who work to make this a truly special place. Mrs. Robins, our guardian angel is extremely dedicated to the children and early childhood education. She guides children down their individual learning path and their needs. I have two boys and they have been in the school for the past 5 five years. I have seen my boys flourish beyond my expectations - academically, socially, physically, and emotionally. I cannot think of a more warm and loving environment for a child to flourish. Small World Montessori is a very nurturing environment that encourages respect, independence, and growth. Small World Montessori is an authentic Montessori school. Mrs. Robins truly teaches guides and follows the legacy of Maria Montessori. She supports the children in becoming the best they can be. My children have learned life skills that will positively impact their future. Our family is blessed to have found this school and community. Not only does Mrs. Robins care about the children but she truly cares about the family as well. We love Mrs. Robins, all the staff, and the Small World Montessori School!
