Elite Minds Montessori is a private preschool in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn for children ages 3 months to 5 years old. We are proud to be women-owned and operated!
We are 1 of 3 verified AMS schools across all of NYC’s 5 boroughs. This means we are confirmed to be authentically Montessori with core elements in place (i.e. trained teachers in every classroom). We are working towards our accreditation (there are 3 accredited schools across NYC).
At Elite Minds Montessori we offer a nurturing multilingual (English, French and Spanish) environment where children can develop their unique skills and potential by engaging their minds in art, yoga, music and play in a traditional Montessori setting.
Our typical day will include the following:
Focus on five areas of Montessori learning: Practical life skills, Sensorial activities, Mathematics, Literacy, and Cultural Studies
2 - 3 hours of daily uninterrupted work cycle
Strong focus on arts enrichment, including music, weekly artist study and project, yoga, movement and gardening with a farm to table experience
Daily mindfulness activities
Daily outdoor play at Mother Cabrini Park
Frequent visits to Urban Meadow Garden
Maria Montessori developed the system of education that bears her name. She knew that during the age of 0 - 3 years old your child’s brain develops more rapidly than any other stage of development. In our newest Daisies and Lillies classrooms, your infant/toddler are with teachers that provide a loving, nurturing, peaceful and safe environment.
Your child will feel supported as the natural passion for exploration, wonder, curiosity and discovery come alive!
Come tour our beautiful classrooms and meet our community.
“We discovered that education is not something which the teacher does, but that it is a natural process which develops spontaneously in the human being.”
