I believe that every child has value and should have opportunities to participate in our community in a meaningful way, no matter their age. My role is to nurture children’s interests and skills so they may continue to construct their best selves. I will guide them to all areas of the classroom environment, offering materials specifically designed and presented in response to individual developmental needs and interests. My role is to ensure that the children in the program leave with a love of learning, a strong cognitive foundation, and awareness and aptitude to navigate with the world around them. https://bluebirdschoolstl.com/contact daily 0.75 2024-06-03 https://bluebirdschoolstl.com/home daily 1.0 2025-01-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60561bbcdeb56a28d186fd0b/34eb8a1d-7579-4aeb-9ea3-b897b04ac939/freddie+homepage.jpeg Home - “Play is the work of the child” - Maria Montessori Bluebird Montessori promotes hands-on learning experiences.

Bluebird uses a multi-age grouping to foster peer collaboration. This provides older children the opportunity to assist younger children in order to cement their understanding, build confidence, and create community. Meanwhile, younger children benefit from opportunity to observe their older peers. https://bluebirdschoolstl.com/hours-calendar daily 0.75 2025-01-08 https://bluebirdschoolstl.com/enrollment daily 0.75 2024-04-22 https://bluebirdschoolstl.com/toddlers daily 0.75 2024-06-04 https://bluebirdschoolstl.com/consultations daily 0.75 2024-06-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60561bbcdeb56a28d186fd0b/07b9f4cb-67b4-47ae-ad76-a8ae937831fd/IMG_5753.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60561bbcdeb56a28d186fd0b/1d13beca-d62d-4ed6-a7ae-51b311910785/IMG_5793.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60561bbcdeb56a28d186fd0b/e2c22702-6b14-4f3b-b932-16cb2dfc4ae7/IMG_3990.jpg
