WHO WE ARE
Supporting Our Community, One Family at a Time
At Tender Tree Montessori, we believe every child deserves to feel safe, seen, and supported as they begin their learning journey. We are a licensed early learning and childcare program serving children from 8 months to 6 years of age, created with the real needs of families in our community at the heart of everything we do.
We know that choosing care for your child is a deeply personal decision. That’s why we strive to provide more than just childcare—we offer a warm, nurturing environment where your child is respected as an individual, encouraged to grow with confidence, and supported at every stage of development.
Rooted in Montessori philosophy and guided by Alberta’s FLIGHT framework—Play, Participation, and Possibilities—our approach honors your child’s natural curiosity, independence, and sense of wonder. Through thoughtful guidance, meaningful experiences, and strong relationships, we work in partnership with you to help your child build a strong foundation for lifelong learning.
We are proud to walk alongside your family during these important early years.
