After School Care
Afternoon Care is offered for MSPI families from 2:30pm-5:30pm daily. This time is an extension of the children’s Montessori experience in a more relaxed, homelike setting. Our trained, committed caregivers help the children establish an after school routine. The children build relationships with the teachers and each other, developing trust, confidence and communication skills. They prepare snacks, make crafts, explore the outdoors, play on the playground, throw or kick a ball around, listen to music – often singing and dancing along. You can find them curled up in the corner for a story, playing a game, or working on a puzzle together. They share the afternoon’s chores and take ownership of their after school environment. Children can attend our Afternoon Care regularly from 1-5 days per week. The program is available for all ages.
