Welcome to Little Steps Montessori School in Richardson

At Little Steps Montessori School, we believe every child deserves the best foundation for a lifetime of learning. Conveniently located in Richardson, TX, our school offers a nurturing environment where children are free to explore, discover, and grow. Our mission is simple: to inspire independent thinkers and confident learners through the Montessori method, while also providing the flexibility and care modern families need.

From infants to school-age children, our programs are designed to support every stage of development. Whether you are seeking a safe and loving place for your baby, a preschool that prepares your child for academic success, or after-school care with enriching activities, you’ll find it here at Little Steps Montessori.

Why Choose Montessori Education?

The Montessori philosophy, developed by Dr. Maria Montessori, emphasizes hands-on learning, independence, and respect for each child’s natural development. Unlike traditional classrooms, Montessori environments allow children to learn at their own pace with guidance from highly trained teachers.

At Little Steps Montessori, this approach means your child gains more than academic knowledge—they build life skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and social confidence. These qualities give them an advantage not only in school but throughout life.

Our philosophy

The Little Steps Montessori School develops every child’s natural love of learning. We are proud to provide a prepared environment where our students engage in meaningful work under the guidance of our highly-trained educators and staff.

Our School boasts the traditional Montessori Method with the belief that cognitive development is the product of interaction between the individual and the environment. We have a uniquely designed, activity based learning environment structured to meet your child’s needs.

Our Programs

We are proud to offer Montessori programs for all ages:

Infants (6 weeks – 18 months)
Our infant program provides a safe, calm, and nurturing space where your baby receives attentive care. With gentle sensory activities, tummy time, and responsive routines, we support early development and give parents peace of mind.
Toddlers (18 months – 3 years)
Toddlers are active explorers, and our Montessori toddler program encourages independence. Children build early language, motor, and social skills through hands-on activities, movement, and guided discovery.
Pre-Primary (3 – 4 years)
This stage prepares children for preschool success. Our pre-primary classrooms encourage curiosity with practical life activities, early math, and language experiences. Children develop concentration, independence, and confidence.
Primary (4 – 6 years)
In our primary program, children thrive in a true Montessori classroom where they use specialized materials to learn math, science, language, geography, and practical life skills. With individualized attention, children progress at their own pace while developing responsibility and problem-solving abilities.
After-School Care
For school-age children, our after-school program provides a safe and engaging space to continue learning. Homework help, creative projects, and fun social activities keep children motivated until parents arrive.
Summer School
Learning doesn’t stop when school is out! Our summer program blends Montessori lessons with fun activities, helping children stay sharp academically while enjoying creative play, field trips, and exciting new experiences.

Parent Say About Little Steps Montessori School

We moved our son from a regular day care facility to Little Steps a few months ago and we could not be any happier with the progress he's made in such a short time there. Within two weeks he was starting to use more words and recognize colors and numbers. Now after two months he gets great joy out of telling us what colors things are and how many of them there are, and it's all thanks to the great teachers at Little Steps.

LSM is a wonderful school with loving, hard-working teachers. We've been attending for six years and every teacher my children have learned from is excellent. My daughter currently has Ms. Reyna and SHE IS THE BEST! We highly recommend LSM.

The teachers and staff are very sweet and caring. Whenever I walk through the school I see happy children learning lots. The teachers and staff have helped my son hit so many milestones. Every day when I pick up my infant there’s a daily report with when he drank bottles, ate food, had diapers, napped, and the staff tell me how his day was! I’m so glad my son is there and I see several parents with more than one child at the school. It goes from infant to when they go to kindergarten.

Had a few minor issues with child/teacher compatibility, but by the time my son left for kindergarten he was already reading, writing, and doing 3 digit addition and basic subtraction. Super happy with our investment in our child. Worth every penny!

Little Steps Montessori is absolutely amazing. This school was suggested to me after I needed to find care for my then 2 year old. She had been in the care of family since she was an infant and as a first time mother, I was terrified at the prospect of leaving her with people I didn’t know personally. I toured the school and found the environment was clean and the teachers very friendly. I can’t recommend this school enough!
