Welcome to Quiet Corner Montessori School

Quiet Corner Montessori School, established in 2017, provides a nurturing educational environment for children aged 2.9 to 7 years in the serene setting of Connecticut's Quiet Corner. Situated on 90 acres of picturesque pine forest in Woodstock CT, the school emphasizes individualized learning guided by dedicated Montessori educators, fostering growth in a tranquil atmosphere.

Our Philosophy

Quiet Corner Montessori School is a learning community grounded by the philosophy of Dr. Maria Montessori.  Our mission is to provide a holistic approach to learning which cultivates collaboration, creative and independent thought, empathy for others and inspires a child’s natural curiosity of the world around them.  We will guide and nurture each child according to their physical, emotional, social, and intellectual characteristics.  A commitment to communication, honesty, and mutual respect will be fostered through partnerships between the teachers, parents and children.  Our school will provide a safe and peaceful environment where each child is encouraged to grow to their fullest potential and nurture their joy of learning.  

“Play is the work of the child.”

— Dr. Maria Montessori

  • We can't thank you enough for everything you have done to make the world of education such an amazing experience for our son. He has had the best experience and foundation for his academic career.

  • At the start of the year, we were anxious about how he was going to adjust but that was very quickly alleviated. Thank you for fostering a great relationship with school and learning.

  • Amy, Holly, and all of their assistant teachers have only ever displayed patience, compassion, and a shared excitement to learn with my children. Our family has been supported and loved over the past two years in ways that make us feel truly part of this little community. They are located in the perfect setting for children who are curious and have a desire to explore their natural world. My only regret is that I didn't discover this gem when my oldest two were preschool age!

  • Miss Holly and Miss Amy are nurturing, enthusiastic, and very mindful in how they teach. I am grateful for their time, care, and attention to my children during their first experience away from home and in a school environment. Our time spent with QCMS was a one-of-a kind. It was a treasured experience for our children.

  • This morning is my monthly yoga class with the awesome kiddos at Quiet Corner Montessori School and I am so grateful to Miss Amy and Miss Holly for inviting me into their classroom this school year! I love planting seeds of wellness and healthy life skills and tools in the minds of these little yogis here.
