Edquisitive Montessori Daycare

Montessori Tuition in San Antonio: What’s Included & What It Costs

Edquisitive Montessori is a premium early childhood program for families who want more than basic childcare.

Daycare is a category. Education is a choice.

Most parents don’t realize they’re choosing between the two.

The cost of preschool education is one of the deciding factors. But understanding the full value of an Edquisitive Montessori education — or any other program — matters more than the number itself. See what’s included, how we compare to typical daycare, and how families make the investment work, then reserve a visit to see your child’s classroom in person.

Tuition is $200–$365/week — varies by campus, program, and schedule. We’ll text the exact tuition for your campus and program when you reserve your visit.

Most parents start by comparing prices.

Then they realize the bigger question is what their child experiences every day.

“There’s not enough real learning.”

You want hands-on work, language growth, practical life skills, and school readiness — not just supervision.

“It feels like babysitting.”

You want your child cared for, but you also want learning, structure, and growth in their day.

“The staff keeps changing.”

Children need consistent adults, routines, and relationships to feel safe and confident.

Could this be your child’s classroom?

    Common questions

    Each campus has different programs, staffing, and facilities. Spanish Grove Academy includes full dual-language immersion. Fair Oaks includes specialist-led small-group lessons. Little Red Caboose has 30+ years of operation and teachers with 15+ year tenure. Northwest Military is a boutique campus where families pack meals from home. Your rate reflects the specific campus experience.
    At most campuses it means meals, Spanish, yoga, STEM, music, motor skills, and outdoor learning — all built into your weekly rate. No add-on fees. At Northwest Military, meals aren’t included (families pack lunches), but all programs are.
    Yes. We offer part-time schedules and school-day (non-full-day) rates at most campuses. Specific options vary by campus and age group. Ask during your tour for the exact options at your preferred campus.
    Yes. All four campuses accept both CCS (Child Care Services) and CCA (Child Care Aware) payments. We believe every child deserves access to quality Montessori education.
    Cognia is a nationally recognized accreditation; Texas Rising Star 4-Star is the state’s highest quality rating. Three of our four campuses hold both. Together they mean we exceed state standards for curriculum, instruction, leadership, and child outcomes. Little Red Caboose is working toward both.
    Montessori works for all types of learners — active, quiet, creative, analytical. The method meets each child where they are. On your tour, we’ll discuss your child’s personality and learning style so you can see how they’d fit.

    Daycare is a category. Education is a choice.

    The best way to decide is to walk a classroom, meet a teacher, and see the environment your child would spend their day in.
