Children learn best through hands-on exploration using their five senses. Our classrooms are thoughtfully designed as calm, engaging spaces where students can touch, see, hear, smell, and experience their lessons directly. This multi-sensory approach transforms abstract concepts into tangible understanding.
Each child works at their own pace in our carefully prepared environments, choosing activities that align with their natural development.
Our curriculum builds from simple to complex concepts through practical life activities, mathematics, language, art, and music.
Materials and activities connect directly to life experiences, making learning relevant and engaging.
Our experienced, well-trained teachers serve as guides in your child’s educational journey. They create an environment where children develop confidence through success-oriented materials and individual learning styles are respected and supported.

Marcia Weinacker founded Weinacker’s Montessori School in 1969. Having been introduced to Maria Montessori’s works during her graduate research, Mrs. Weinacker began the school after she completed her Master’s Degree in Education. Her first students included the two youngest of her nine children who were then three and five years old. Her son, one of those original students, is continuing the family tradition. Mr. Weinacker’s three children have attended the school as well as several nieces and nephews.
Today, there are three schools, at locations in both Mobile and Baldwin counties. Weinacker’s trained and Montessori certified teaching staff have four main areas of concentration including sensorial, practical life, reading, and math. In the classrooms, our teachers teach children to learn for themselves; stressing that work is the basis of all accomplishments, development of coordination, and “ego stretching experiences”, all primary goals of our schools. Freedom in an environment controlled by the students themselves has been in the formula for Montessorian success.
Weinacker’s Montessori has been providing excellence in education and child care since 1969.
