Prepared Environment

Our wonderful Montessori infant care environment is cozy, warm, and specially designed for mobility. In our lovely infant classroom setting, we foster and nurture your child’s independence. We welcome children as young as 04 weeks old and have them continue with us till they turn 16 months old and are ready to transition to move up to the young toddler environment.

Our Infant environment is a small and intimate setting with very limited spots. Our Infant teachers have been with us for many years providing consistency of care. Our teachers keep meticulous records of each Infant’s feeding, eating, drinking, sleeping and playing schedule and share the same with parents at end of each day.

Herndon within Limits

Our infant Montessori environment is a serene, loving sanctuary. The environment is mindfully and in an aesthetically pleasing way, separated into areas for playing, eating, sleeping and diapering. Unlike traditional childcare and Daycare settings, our prepared Infant environment is free of high-chairs or playpens as well as free of modern electronic gadgetry that beeps, sings or glows.

In our infant classrooms we offer:

  • Plenty of floor space for children to move and explore, as they are ready.
  • Well positioned, low mirrors on walls for self-discovery
  • We follow a child’s natural sleeping and waking process.
  • A variety of Montessori based mobile, wooden objects, and soft protected furniture for children to explore and stimulate development.
  • Meals and feedings are determined by a child’s natural hunger patterns.
  • A variety of age-appropriate books and reading materials for children to explore

May I just say we are so blessed that we have chosen this school for our daughter! It was her first time to go to school and we all were so stressed if it’ll go well… but, it not just went well, it became the favorite place in the World for my daughter. I know that my child is treated with respect, that she is allowed to be herself yet in her own pace she is being introduced to so much information, knowledge, projects. Holidays are always fun here! And hygiene standards are highest you can ever imagine. We are grateful to administration and teachers, all these wonderful people who actually raise our children while parents got to go to work. There is no other place we would rather be!

Guidepost Montessori is a great place for children to learn and develop. The teachers and staff are extremely knowledgeable, personal and are able to provide the best possible environment for kids to prosper and develop a love towards learning by experiencing. The facility is bright, clean and very well maintained. They have frequent events involving parents so they get to know each other and build a strong community. We are very happy that our kid is part of the Guidepost family and would highly recommend it to all parents!

My daughter has been here 4.5 years, and what an amazing experience. The teachers are all truly wonderful and are invested in doing the very best for your child. The school is such a warm nurturing environment that feels more like family. The head of schools is attentive to every detail and goes to great lengths to ensure the best experience for your child. I highly recommend this school.

LePort Montessori is a wonderful school for my toddler - we are grateful every day that we found it. Our son happily heads to school every day and has blossomed under the care of the teachers and staff. The Montessori program has done wonders to challenge his expanding mind while encouraging self discipline even at 2. I have been very impressed with the level of communication from the school, and the support we received transitioning our son from staying home with a parent to being a full time student. We receive regular feedback from his teacher on his progress and to help make sure we are all on the same page, as well as fun photos and stories from his activities. We absolutely love LePort Herndon - I would highly recommend the school to anyone looking for a genuine Montessori education from a group of fantastic teachers and admins!
