Giving Students the Best, So They Can Be Their Best
We believe that each child is unique and special and should be allowed to evolve and grow at his/ her own pace.
The Montessori classroom at Montessori Connections is a unique prepared environment, which is carefully designed to allow children to “learn by doing:” Each classroom is filled with imaginative and self-correcting educational materials, which are planned to encourage creative activity, develop the senses and intellectual activity and increase motor coordination.
The experience-rich environment encompasses the following areas: Practical Life, Sensorial, Science, Math, Language, Cultural subjects, Art and Music. Outdoor experiences on our beautiful play yard include group games, physical exercise and free play.
The Montessori child builds confidence and competence as he/ she engages in activities appropriate to his/ her development. Cooperation and a sense of community are fostered through independence and group experiences. The child develops mutual respect and responsibility for herself/himself, others and the environment.
Our experienced and dedicated staff provides the stability and guidance needed to make it possible for each child to progress to his/her fullest social, creative and intellectual potential. In our child-centered environment the directress’ role is to foster, nurture, guide, observe and direct the children’s decision-making ability. This is done through one-to-lessons, small group explorations and large group activities.
Our goals at Montessori Connections include:
Academic Growth – Your child is offered opportunities to learn to read, write, and form math concepts.
Independence with responsibility – Children thrive with pride in their competence as they learn to work independently and responsibly put their work back when finished and care for their school environment
Concentration –The child’s attention span develops as they learn to focus, fostering good study habits.
Coordination – Attractive, fun exercises that strengthen your child’s hand for writing and train the eye for reading are provided.
Order – Our environment is based on order. Order leads to logical thinking for future math concepts, problem-solving, and decision making.
Socialization – We provide a natural environment encouraging children to meet, interact, and make friends, with guidance when needed.
Emotional maturation – Our goal is that your child will develop a positive self-concept, competence with social and language skills and love of learning.
Self-Control – Children work on developing their inner discipline and how to become responsible for their own actions.
Experience why our children are HAPPY to learn!

Parent Testimonials
“Montessori connections is a fabulous place for your child. Our daughter, having started last year when she was 2 and half years , has been thriving. What are the highlights? Incredible ratio of teachers to children. They vary from age to age, but regardless of the age, the ratio is always better than other nearby sites. The site is clean, organized and all my teachers ,Staff feel very supported by the administrators. The teachers all love their jobs so they are some of the happiest caregivers I met. There is a lot of support so that the teachers can apply learning in a fun, playful way. They serve healthy snacks, but will work with you if you want to bring your child your own food. They send home the cute little crafts and activities; it’s sweet. In short, they’re awesome.”
“My younger daughter, Zahra went to Montessori Connections this fall (2018). This was her first time in a school setting and it went very well. The staff and teachers are courteous, the premises are safe and kid friendly and they are very flexible with parents’ requests for scheduling changes. Would recommend the school for toddlers in South Brunswick area.”
“the best montessori i came across. My niece, nephews and my older child has been to different montessori. currently my youngest son goes there and the rest that i am seeing by being in this montessori is far better than other kids we have seen. i highly recommend this place if you want your kid to be advance. Especially Ms. Anjali who works with my son has taught him stuff that even kids from high schools are unknown of. she has give him general knowledge as well as academic knowledge beyond my expectations.”
“We love the Montessori Connections.
This is our 4th year with them.. We have both of our kids enrolled and couldn’t be more pleased with the love and care and attention they get from the amazing staff. It feels more like a good family and I would recommend it to anyone without hesitation…”
