A Globally-Focused, Authentic Montessori Education

At Waterfront Montessori, we believe the world needs more children who are centered, confident, self-starters — crucial life skills that go beyond typical classroom learning.

Waterfront Montessori helps students from toddler age through middle school nurture their independence, expand their critical thinking, and unlock their creativity as they become their best selves and prepare for a future fueled by their own potential.
