For Weston families
Montessori toddler, preschool & summer camp in Weston
A Montessori toddler program in Weston
Beacon's Montessori Toddler program (15 months to 3 years) is right here in Weston, minutes from home. Classes stay small. The room is built for this age, so toddlers spend the day on small real jobs like pouring, dressing, and tidying up. That is how they learn to manage on their own.
Montessori preschool and kindergarten in Weston
Our Primary program (ages 3 to 6) is a Montessori preschool and kindergarten on Boston Post Road in Weston. The classroom mixes ages, so younger and older children learn together, each picking their own work and staying with it. The kindergarten year finishes the cycle before elementary school.
A warm alternative to Weston daycare
For Weston families, Beacon is worth weighing against a local daycare. The hours are similar, 8:00 AM to 2:45 PM with care until 5:00 PM, but the day is spent on real Montessori work rather than supervision.
Summer camp in Weston
Beacon Summer Camp runs weekly sessions for Weston children ages 2.9 to 6, with gardening, art, water play, and time outside, right on our campus. You sign up for the weeks you want, and new families are welcome.

How is Montessori different from a traditional classroom?
Children are active participants in their learning. Rather than moving every child through the same lesson at the same pace, Montessori lets children build skills through individualized work, repetition, exploration, and choice within clear limits.
“Free the child’s potential, and you will transform him into the world.”
