• Enrichment Care

    Our Enrichment Care program at Montessori Children’s School offers a nurturing and engaging environment beyond regular school hours. Designed to complement the Montessori experience, it provides a variety of activities that encourage creativity, exploration, and social interaction in a safe and supportive setting. Whether your child needs time to wind down or is eager to dive into new experiences, our program is here to support their growth and development.

    Note: Students must be at least 3 years of age and potty trained.

  • Enrichment Care: The Full Scoop

    This program is lovingly run by Ms. Kitty Klonk, a cherished member of our MCS family for years. Trust us—she’s pure magic, and you’ll see what we mean when you meet her!

    Enrichment Care (E.C.) is available Monday through Friday, from 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, unless otherwise noted. Please note that children must be at least 3 years old and potty trained. Naptime is based on parents' discretion to suit each child's needs.

    E.C. is offered as a scheduled, recurring service and is not available on an 'as-needed' basis.

  • Enrichment Care: The Daily Rhythm

    Each day in Enrichment Care is thoughtfully planned to provide a blend of structure and spontaneity. Mornings may include calming activities, allowing everyone to ease into their day. As the day unfolds, children engage in group games, storytelling, and plenty of free play to foster their imagination and social skills. Lunchtime brings everyone together to refuel, while afternoons offer quiet time or naps, followed by more fun-filled activities like art, gardening, or music.

    No two days are the same, and that's what makes E.C. so magical! Ms. Kitty ensures that each child's needs are met and that every moment is enriching and joyful.

  • Enrichment Care: Beyond Babysitting

    Enrichment Care (E.C.) at MCS is much more than a simple babysitting service—it’s an extension of the Montessori philosophy, nurturing your child's curiosity and development. This program offers a consistent, caring environment where children can explore, play, and learn. With guided activities, social play, and time for self-directed discovery, children continue to build essential life skills, form friendships, and engage in creative projects. Every moment in E.C. is intentionally crafted to be meaningful and magical.
