Tiddlycove Montessori School is a Preschool & Kindergarten based on the Montessori educational philosophy, located at an idyllic seaside. Our program is based on the Montessori educational philosophy developed by Maria Montessori in the early 1900's. Children are encouraged to explore their passions & interests in a loving, patient & nurturing environment, while their caregivers support their development of a solid foundation in the core academic areas of language, math & culture. Children are introduced to these core academic areas with engaging & interactive multi-sensory materials that harness their natural developmental needs to see, hear, touch & move. The Tiddlycove program also incorporates other educational styles that directly complement the Montessori philosophy, such as the Orton-Gillingham technique used to teach young children the phonetic foundations of the alphabet.
