Montessori-based Memory Care

Dr. Maria Montessori developed the philosophy of education that bears her name more than a century ago. As the first female physician in Italy, Dr. Montessori was not exactly welcomed into the professional ranks. She was given the rather unenviable task of teaching “un-teachable” children; today, these children would be categorized as having special needs. The educational philosophy that she created relies on a person-centered approach and allows each person to choose activities suited to his or her interests, needs and developmental level.
