“Development is a series of rebirths.” Dr. Maria Montessori recognized that the first three years of life are the most critical in shaping a child’s physical, emotional, and cognitive foundation. We honor this vision through our Montessori Infant Toddler Credential Program, designed to prepare educators to nurture and guide the youngest learners with intention, respect, and purpose.

The Montessori Infant Toddler Credential Program at Chaminade University is delivered through online coursework and immersive on-campus summer sessions. The program offers a comprehensive foundation in Montessori philosophy, child development, and culturally responsive care. It also includes a supervised practicum to support authentic, hands-on learning in infant and toddler environments.
