Montessori Seeds of Knowledge is a private Montessori school in Etoy, Switzerland, operating since 2021. The school follows the Montessori pedagogy in a bilingual English-French environment, guiding children from 18 months to 15 years through four age-based programs: 18–36 months; 3–6 years; 6–12 years; and 12–15 years. All educational guides are AMI-certified, serving as supportive pedagogical guides rather than traditional instructors. The curriculum emphasizes independence, kindness, listening, discipline, and respect, delivered within a personalized learning environment that respects each child's pace of development. The school fosters hands-on exploration and practical life skills within a safe, family-friendly setting. In addition to core Montessori activities, after-school care and enrichment sessions extend learning with targeted offerings such as Art & Sciences, Pottery & Creativity, Sewing, Science Workshop, and Story Creation. The program's bilingual structure and AMI credentials make it an accessible option for international families seeking continuity of Montessori practice in Switzerland today.
