'A child in his earliest years is capable of tremendous achievements simply through his unconscious power of absorption, even when he is still immobile. Beginning about the age of three, he is able to acquire a great number of concepts through his own efforts in exploring his surroundings.'

- Maria Montessori

Charlevoix Children's House was founded in 1979  to fill the mission of giving children the freedom to learn. As an exciting and dynamic school for young minds from 2 1/2 - 6 years old, our 'little red schoolhouse' has provided families a nurturing and inspiring alternative to daycare, offering the many advantages of a Montessori based education.
