Our journey began as Young Inventors Montessori, a family based daycare with a big vision—to create a nurturing and inspiring environment where children could thrive. With dedication, passion, and the support of our wonderful community, we grew beyond our humble beginnings. Today, we are honored to carry forward the rich legacy of Central Nursery School, a beloved institution that has been a cornerstone of early childhood education in the heart of Rose Garden, San Jose, since 1967.

A Time-Honored Tradition, Enriched with Montessori Excellence

For over five decades, Central Nursery School has provided a warm and enriching space where children embark on their educational journey with curiosity, confidence, and joy. Now, as part of the Young Inventors Montessori family, we blend our deep-rooted Montessori philosophy with Central Nursery School’s longstanding tradition of excellence. Together, we offer a thoughtfully designed environment where children receive individualized attention, the freedom to explore, and the structure to build essential life skills.
