Welcome to Little People Montessori Pre-school!

Based in Sea Point, Cape Town, since 2007, Little People Montessori Preschool is dedicated to the global Montessori philosophy and giving children the best start in life. We allow children the freedom to follow their passion, grow as independent individuals and reach their natural potential. Working with two to five year olds in a small, warm, nurturing environment, we offer a stimulating child centred learning approach, focusing on the development of the whole child.
