What parents say

• Rashminder Gill

  Best school and learning environment. Both of my children attended this school and they absolutely love it. It is very well rounded fun learning environment which allows the children to grow at their own pace, real Montessori style. Mrs. Van Meel and Mrs. Bains both teachers are very patient and kind. I feel very grateful that my children had the opportunity to learn and grow at the Maria Montessori School.

  What a wonderful preschool! The teachers are so kind and professional. They took the time to really get to know my child, and were always patient with my questions. My child just blossomed with their child-centered program, that respected her individual choices and developmental level. I was surprised with how much she learned (from naming the countries of the world to becoming a fluent reader). Care and thoughtfulness was evident in the design of the bright and beautiful space. I feel very grateful for having the opportunity for my child to attend The Maria Montessori preschool.

  I would keep my kids in this school till high school if I had the option! I love how caring the teachers are and how they understand each child's personality so well. The Montessori style has made my kids love learning. It's a small sized school which isn't overwhelming for the kids. We looked at many preschools before choosing this one. I think the calm atmosphere of this school is so important for kids. They genuinely learn instead of just playing everyday. We will keep our kids here in kindergarten too. I know my kids are going to miss the school and the teachers a lot once they are done kindergarten.

  The key to choosing a preschool is in understanding How They Teach over what they teach. I am glad I made the right decision at the right time to send my daughter to Maria Montessori school. Mrs. Van Meel is an absolute Rockstar of an early childhood educator and has developed a Montessori program that teaches cooperation and compassion. My daughter has been able to surpass the developmental milestones typically set out for her age group from the moment she started going to this school. She loves her teachers and has made great friendships. The school families are all very welcoming. Thank you, Mrs. Van Meel and Staff for providing a safe, structured, and encouraging environment. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND it to anyone looking for a Montessori-based preschool for their kids.

  An amazing school!! While looking for the right fit for my child I did observations at different preschools. I found the learning environment at the Marie Montessori School to be the most well rounded. The program supports each child’s individual needs and helps them thrive in a warm and welcoming environment. Not only is Mrs. van Meel an AMI certified instructor, but she also incorporates outdoor education into the program. The staff is kind, flexible and patient with the needs of children and their parents. My daughter has made remarkable progress during her time in the program. The Marie Montessori School is well worth the daily commute to bring my child here.
