Who We Are
We are a team of passionate educators who believe that every child has the potential to thrive with the right tools and support. We believe that learning should be an exciting and enjoyable experience that inspires curiosity and creativity. Our lab is designed to foster a love of learning and exploration in a safe and supportive environment. We believe that children learn best through hands-on experiences and when we provide opportunities for them to discover, experiment, and problem-solve.
Our Story
Our Founder began Little Explorers Lab to provide children with a fun and engaging environment in which to learn and grow. A parent herself, she noticed a lack of educational based learning centers where she could explore and learn with her own children in the Houston area. At Little Explorers Lab, we understand that early childhood is a critical time for child development, and the lack of programs in the area that stimulate the mind and encourage independence and creativity was concerning. That's why we offer parents and young explorers a quality engaging environment in which to learn and grow. Let us help your child explore, learn and play today.
Why Montessori?
At Little Explorers Lab, we believe in the power of Montessori education. Our approach to education is centered around the child and their innate desire to explore and learn about the world around them. By providing a hands-on, child-led learning experience, we seek to nurture each child's unique abilities and interests, while fostering an environment of curiosity, independence, and creativity.
