With peaceful classrooms, loving guides, and an inspiring environment by the water, children are free to explore, create, and grow—every day of the week.
With access to grassy lawns, leafy trees, and a mile of walkable space without crossing a street, we learn from nature in all seasons—through hands-on experiences that spark wonder and connection.Here, learning isn’t rushed. It’s respected. And every moment is filled with purpose.
Our home on the South Cove waterfront in Battery Park City is the ideal setting for learning and growing. From our light-filled classrooms, children venture out daily to explore the NYC waterfront and marina, world-class playgrounds, the Seaglass Carousel, the Skyscraper Museum, and more.

What Makes Montessori so Meaningful
Every child is unique, and so is their path. Montessori nurtures that individuality, allowing children to learn in ways that feel natural, joyful, and right for them.
From pouring their own water to choosing their next work, children build confidence by doing things for themselves—one small success at a time.
Montessori materials are beautifully crafted to spark curiosity and make abstract concepts real. Children learn by doing, exploring, and discovering.
Younger children look up to older friends. Older children lead with kindness. Together, they build a community of care, patience, and cooperation.
Instead of rushing from one task to another, children enjoy long, uninterrupted periods of time to settle in, explore, and follow their interests deeply.
Montessori begins with respect—for the child, for the learning process, and for the world around us. It’s a gentle, guiding approach that honors the whole child.
Every corner of the classroom is thoughtfully designed to invite independence and calm. It’s a beautiful, orderly space where children feel safe to take risks and try new things.
Montessori nurtures more than academics. Children develop empathy, resilience, practical life skills, and a true sense of self. It’s learning that prepares them for life.
