Watching your little bundle of joy blossom into a toddler brings forth a whirlwind of emotions. Before you know it, he is old enough to attend his first preschool. While you might feel some trepidation in letting junior be away from home, the thought of giving him a head start in life is too enticing to pass up.
Of course, wanting the best for your child’s education means investing in a reputable institution, which is where Josiah Montessori comes in. From a low teacher-to-child ratio to a Musical Arts Programme, here are some personalised services you can expect here.
Thanks to the magic of technology, you can receive updates of your child’s well-being with just a tap. For instance, parents will be glad to know that teachers here provide photos and videos of their child’s day-to-day activities to quell any anxiety they have.
Every class also has their personal Whatsapp group chat which you will be added into. In the chat, you’ll receive important reminders and celebration photos from the teachers.

Whether it’s accommodating special requests like using a personal body wash or having a low teacher-to-child ratio, every child in Josiah will receive personalised care.
For instance, in the toddler class, there is 1 teacher to every 6 children which allows the teachers here to be more attentive to your child’s needs and progress.

While preschools build the foundation for the rigours of formal education, we should never forget that it’s also supposed to be fun.
