Our School in Kifissia
Our love for children, as well as our admiration for what the Montessori approach to education has to offer them, have led us to create MY LEARNING HOME.
Our school is bilingual (English-Greek) and welcomes children aged 1 to 6 years old. It is located in an extraordinary Kifissia-styled villa and is surrounded by an enchanting garden.
Implementing the Montessori Method according to strict international standards, our School offers a distinctive educational program following the needs of children. Our well-trained staff along with the rich Montessori material and the high aesthetic environment ensure that our children will gain a unique preschool experience.
Aiming at the healthy and joyful development of each child, we place emphasis on individually approaching each one. Knowledge is acquired in an experiential and sensorimotor way. Thus, Music and Art are combined with Mathematics, Language, Geography, Zoology and Botany through activities which allow children to conquer the independence they long for at this age. Moreover, through Field Trips, Excursions and Visitations (based on our children’s needs) the children gain valuable experiences in life and culture.
Come join us for a guided tour of our School!
“The first essential for the child’s development is concentration.
The child who concentrates is immensely happy.”

School Philosophy
- Bilingual environment in the classrooms (Greek and English) throughout the day with simultaneous presence of English and Greek speaking teaching staff.
- Mixed ages in the classroom where children from 2.5 years old to kindergarten children (5-6 years old) co-exist. This enhances cooperation as the older children practically help the younger children by feeling useful and enjoying the roles of responsibility.
- Montessori material in classrooms and trained staff (AMI)
- Connecting with nature, caring for the animals that live in our garden, Daphne the dog and many tortoises, showing respect for all living creatures.
