Valley Montessori Academy

When my daughter was 2 weeks old I signed her up to be on the waitlist. At the time, the website specified that once your child was 18 months, they would contact you to discuss enrollment. At a year old, I contacted them to confirm that she was in fact on the waitlist. They told me she was and to expect to hear from them when she was 18 months. Never heard from them ever. I have a friend who had her kids enrolled here and she said that they were lovely but really unorganized. Unfortunately, she was correct. Will be enrolling my daughter elsewhere.

It's been a very inviting, calming, loving, safe environment to work in. The owners make each of us staff members feel special on our birthdays. The classrooms are beautiful and the outdoor area has sun coverage. Large windows let natural light into each classroom. Indoor plants are in each corner waiting for children to water and care for them. The garden is a perfect place for children to learn about what they eat. The children have so many hands on experiences. Mindfulness yoga is practiced weekly. Music time is a joy. Heathy eating is a learned skill here. Fresh fruit is daily prepped and eaten by the children. Vegetables from the school garden are eaten and cooked with excitement. Fresh herbs provide the children new experiences using all their senses in the garden. Beautiful art is created and sent home so parents can enjoy their children's work daily. Life cycles are displayed to invite children to learn. I am thankful to be a part of this kind unified team.

We may be relocating and wanted to find a Montessori. Checking out available information online. Loving that they offer Spanish Immersion!
