What is a Montessori Nursery?

The Montessori method of teaching was created by Maria Montessori (1870 - 1952). She was a doctor of medicine and developed her teaching strategies to allow the child the freedom to learn within a structured environment. Due to her success, her teaching principles are used today worldwide. Her teaching methods are based around approaching an 'educational' task in a manner that appeals to children so that the child is not conscious of that fact that they are 'learning'

Maria Montessori's philosophy enables children to become independent, confident and socially aware by taking the child through a progression of social and practical skills within a prepared environment.

The exercises are carried out in an ordered sequence. These sequences develop concentration leading to independence and self-esteem. Your child will be allowed to work at their own pace, to enhance their full potential and develop, making a happy and confident child.

We absolutely love taking our two children to Buttercup, as do the kids. We do like hearing about what they have discovered, painted or sung. Thank you to all the staff who work there - keep up the good work
