Welcome to Milford Montessori School and Marietta Montessori Academy!

We are situated on 3.5 acres in Milford Township, just 2.5 miles east of the Village of Milford, in northwest Oakland County. We provide a non-graded, nurturing environment for ages 2.5 through 12 years. We are a state licensed private school, nursery school and childcare center, and serve families from Milford, Commerce, Commerce Township, Hartland, Highland, Holly, Union Lake, Walled Lake, White Lake, Wixom and West Bloomfield. We adhere to the Montessori Method and Philosophy. |

A Montessori Education "prepares children for life," not just the next academic level by cultivating within the child his/her own natural curiosity and desire to learn. As a Montessori School we provide a culturally rich environment with the sequential Montessori materials, as well as other "hands on" manipulatives that develop everyday living skills. The children learn through exploration of these materials in the classroom as well as outside in nature with the guidance of Montessori trained teachers. The Montessori Philosophy of "Follow The Child" allows children to work at their own pace and 'move ahead' in areas of high interest while maintaining a steady progress in others.
The Montessori Difference
All classrooms include a 3-year age span, with a 1:8 ratio including support teachers. They are all directed by Certified Montessori Teachers with a college education and/or training in developmental education of Preschool, Kindergarten, and Elementary school age children. Our teachers are affiliated with the American Montessori Society (AMS) and Michigan Montessori Society (MMS). Our assistant teachers hold a Montessori Paraprofessional Teaching Credential. The dedicated Milford Montessori staff has been together upwards of 10 years. They truly love "helping children to help themselves" creating an atmosphere of community, respect and joy in learning.
We encourage you to schedule an observation of a classroom so that you can see for yourself the "Montessori Difference".
