Montessori Preschool & Childcare in Metairie, LA.

A Gift For Life

Ages 1 to 6 · Since 1984. Kinder Haus Montessori has given Metairie families a warm, carefully prepared place for children ages 1 to 6 to grow. In our classrooms, children learn to concentrate, care for themselves and each other, and discover the joy of learning at their own pace — guided one-on-one by teachers who know them by name.

Four decades of real Montessori

Anyone can use the word "Montessori" — the name isn't protected. Kinder Haus has been doing the real thing since 1984, and our lead guides hold Montessori training certificates earned through formal Montessori teacher training.

Small groups, one-on-one attention

We keep our classes small on purpose. Our goal is to stay well below Louisiana's licensing ratios in every classroom, so most lessons can be given one child at a time and every child is known by name. Most lessons are given one child at a time. Children are greeted warmly every morning and known as individuals, not managed as a crowd.

A partnership with your family

Kinder Haus is more than a preschool. We are a community that partners with families to help children become confident, independent, and compassionate. We believe that when we support parents, we build the strongest possible foundation for a child — in school and long after.
