Lifetime Montessori will provide an educational program of excellence based upon the original Montessori principles of humanity, primarily that of self-construction. At Lifetime Montessori the child develops his or her own will, self-control, concentration and intellect. Utilizing time tested Montessori principles engenders self-esteem, independence and a sense of responsibility. We guide children ages 18 months through 6 years of age in San Diego County.

 We recommend that when a child enters the Primary Program of Lifetime Montessori, he or she will remain in the same environment for three years. The Montessori method has found that the younger children in the classroom respond faster when emulating the older children. Also, the older children retain a better understanding of the materials and concepts when they have the opportunity to give lessons to the younger members of the community. In addition, each child is allowed to experience being the "youngest", "middle" and "oldest" child, which could never happen otherwise. Through this comfortable exploration in a known environment with the help of the child's peers and teachers, the child is provided with the security and consistency so important at this age. This also means that parents and teachers will develop a close working relationship on behalf of the child. The child is the focus of our school. We feel it is important that all of the people in the child's life (parents, teachers, peers) work together to help the child.
