A Business Homegrown and Founded With Love

In September 1982, owner Christine Strzembosz opened our center in the expanded basement of her house at our current location with two classrooms. The resulting family feel provides your child with a sense of ease, offering a smooth transition from home to the school environment.

37 Incredible Years of Montessori Childcare Experience And Expertise

Hundreds of happy children have been educated at the Montessori Learning Center since its founding. We now have students of former students! We’d like to think that we’re getting better and more effective with time, not older.

Parents To Four Adopted Children

Our owner, Miss Strzembosz, is a parent to four adopted children. She is as equipped as possible to handle any challenges or learning hurdles your student’s faces and has worked with little ones from a variety of different cultural backgrounds throughout her career.
