Frequently Asked Questions

What ages does Meadow Montessori serve?

Meadow Montessori serves children from 3 months through kindergarten, with after-school and summer programs available for elementary-aged children. Families can choose from Nido, Toddler, Pre-Early Childhood, Early Childhood, After School, and Summer programs.

How do I know which program is right for my child?

Age is a starting point, but every child develops at their own pace. During the enrollment process, we consider your child's age, development, independence, and readiness to help determine the classroom where they will be most successful.

How are your Montessori programs different from traditional daycare or preschool?

Our Montessori programs in Richmond, TX are built around hands-on learning, purposeful independence, and each child's individual development. Rather than moving every child through the same activities at the same pace, Montessori teachers observe, guide, and introduce lessons when each child is ready.

Can my child stay at Meadow Montessori through kindergarten?

Yes. Our Early Childhood program follows the three-year Montessori cycle for ages 3–6, with kindergarten as the culminating year. Children can grow through the Montessori environment rather than leaving for a separate kindergarten program at age five.

Do you offer full-day child care?

Yes. Meadow Montessori is open from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., with full-day options that combine Montessori learning with care before and after the core school day. Available schedules vary by program.
