Our Programs: A World of Discovery for Your Child

At Montessori Early Development Academy, all our classes, from our tiny infants to our big kindergarteners, have a special mix of Montessori and Emergent learning. This means we help children grow their hearts and their brains at the same time!

As one of the most trusted preschool programs in Calgary, we love to let kids lead the way. Our teachers are there to help and guide them, making sure they can be the very best they can be during these important early years.

Infant care

Infant

(Under 19 months)

Babies are like little sponges! They touch, taste, and listen to everything around them. We have a very soft and safe place for them to move and play. We help them explore with their hands and eyes so they feel happy and loved while they grow.

Junior Preschool

(19-36 months)

This is our special toddler Montessori program. In this room, children get to show us what they have learned! We have lots of fun arts and crafts. We help every child find their own special personality. It is a place where being curious is the best thing you can be!

Preschool

(3-4 years)

In our preschool programs in Calgary, we help kids build on what they learned when they were younger. Kids here become great at talking, making friends, and playing together. We start to learn about numbers and letters through fun games that make learning feel like a big adventure.

Pre-K

Pre-K

(4 years & older)

Pre-K kids love big challenges! They are very curious about the world. We help them learn more about reading and math with special tools that are just right for their age. This helps them feel ready and brave when it is time to go to the "big school."

Kindergarten

Our kindergarten kids are capable of amazing things! We have a big room full of fun things to learn with. We welcome all children into our warm and happy space. We even have different schedules to help every family find the right time for them.

Cheerful and playful

Out of School Care

We have a special place for older kids who go to nearby schools, which is a great next step for children who have finished our preschool programs in Calgary. The children help us decide what fun things to do! We have a library, arts and crafts, and music. It is a place where everyone is welcome, no matter what they like to do.

Vee Readers

Reading is like a superpower! Our program makes reading fun. We help children learn their letters and how to put them together to make words. We are so proud of them when they read their very first book all by themselves.

Math Ninjas
