Parent-Infant (Birth to 22 months old): A parent, caregiver, or grandparent attend a weekly session with the child and develop together through free exploration, movement to music, and gentle message. It is an experience of growth for both.

Toddler Campers (15 to 36 months old): Tots learn about the world around them and develop their sense of independence and self-confidence through the variety of different and interesting experiences of summer camp.

Junior Campers (3 to 6 years old): Juniors spend their days at Seton exploring the Montessori classrooms as well as enjoying the beautiful outdoors through games, hay rides, outdoor water activities, and art.

Senior Campers (6 to 9 years old): Seniors have an enjoyable time working on a variety of outdoor projects as well as hay rides, outdoor water activities, games, and an assortment of arts & crafts experiences, all in the Montessori spirit.

The camp operates in 3 sessions and is open from 7:00am until 6:00pm. The Seton Montessori Summer Day Camp is accredited by the American Camping Association. For more information, including availability, tuition, and available discounts, please contact the registrar at (630) 655-1066.
