Embracing the Montessori Philosophy

At La Maison Montessori House, we are deeply committed to the Montessori philosophy, which emphasizes self-directed learning, hands-on engagement, and collaborative play. Our approach is rooted in the belief that children thrive in an environment where they are free to explore their interests at their own pace. This educational philosophy, developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, supports the natural development of children with respect and dignity, recognizing them as the individuals they are.

Our Learning Environment

Our classrooms are thoughtfully designed to meet the developmental needs of each child, fostering independence, concentration, and a joy for learning. Each space is equipped with Montessori materials that are inviting and accessible, allowing children to engage in learning activities with minimal guidance from adults. This setup encourages them to explore, think critically, and solve problems creatively, laying a foundation for lifelong learning.

Our Educators

Our educators are more than teachers; they are guides who facilitate learning by connecting students with their environment and ensuring they have the tools they need to succeed. Each staff member is extensively trained in the Montessori method, committed to nurturing each child’s potential and respecting their natural psychological, physical, and social development.

“Our family has 13 student-years of experience at La Maison Montessori House, and our fourth child is about to begin his own journey through the school. That in itself speaks volumes about our confidence in the program. The French program in both Casa and Elementary is second to none. All three of our girls continue to thrive not only in French, but in many other spheres because of their experiences at LMMH.”

“This is just a quick note to thank you for all that you do. I am still processing what I witnessed earlier today—my daughter is doing complex math and my son is spelling/pronouncing French words. Wow! There has been so much progress. To see their confidence and pride in their work gave us such joy. Thanks so much!”

"Throughout the years at LMMH life has handed us many lemons, I can honestly tell you that Mme Anne and the staff have been there wholeheartedly to help us make lemonade each step of the way. If Mme Anne called us tomorrow and told us she was adding high school to the program, my girls would be there instantly, they would choose this environment over the 3000 kids at their new high school any day, and my eldest is very happy and thriving there in her first year. What you have to make up for on your own socially is so outweighed by the quality of education that I believe your child can not get following the traditional way of learning, and to get that in both French and English is just a no brainer."

Currently 3rd Year Law Student at Western University

One of the biggest reasons why I am the way I am today as a student and as a person is how I was taught in Montessori. I find that having gone to La Maison all the way until I was 10 has continued to benefit me even still at the age of 20, as it was in those developmental years where I became a diligent student who was motivated to do schoolwork, not because I had to but because I wanted to. It was this desire to learn and have an inquiring mind that shaped me to be someone who works hard at doing well in school, it was more of an intrinsic motivation to do well.

Currently 2nd Year Biomedical Science Student at York University

My name is Adam Ladak and I currently attend Newmarket High School and I am in grade 10. I previously attended LMMH from toddler all the way to grade 8. The transition to the public system, I found was very easy. The only thing that was different was the homework, but I managed well because of the time management I learned at LMMH. I feel this way because I had a good base and knew many advanced concepts, like in grade 4 I was doing simple interest and compound, and am currently doing that in grade 11 functions.

It was do good to see and chat with you again! Thank you for welcoming me back into the LMMH family and giving me the opportunity to learn and develop my teaching skills. I want to take this opportunity to thank you and tell you how much of an impact both you and LMMH have had on my life. You have personally inspired me to live a life of happiness and positivity and to approach all situations with an open mind. Even now as a university student, I continue to succeed, grow, and learn because of the valuable organizational and motivational skills that I have learned at LMMH. Thank you so much for making a difference in my life and I hope to stay in touch!
