In the short time we have been part of the Aldea Montessori, we have been extremely happy. We placed our son in their infant program when he was around 5 months old as we are both full-time working parents. The fact that we felt comfortable enough to place our infant son in the care of this wonderful staff is a testament to how incredibly trustworthy, professional, and loving these individuals are. If you are looking for a daycare with early drop offs and really late pick ups this is certainly not the place-this is a family and a community. The teachers are warm and inviting and treat our son with so much respect and grace. He has a huge smile on his face as we pull up every morning knowing he is going to be greeted by his favorite teachers and spend the day learning and growing alongside his little friends. You can take so much comfort knowing your children are blossoming in this environment which serves the purpose of being your childs village in an age where the nuclear family is the norm. We could not be happier with our experience and HIGHLY recommend their infant program to any prospective parents looking for a COMMUNITY of love and support for their little peoples.

Enrolling my son in Aldea Montessori was the best decision I could’ve made for him. They are true to the Montessori method and it shows in my child’s growth. I enrolled him in the Nido classroom at six months old and in the last seven months he has developed into such a smart, independent, and adventurous little boy who loves his teachers, loves his friends, and loves showing it! He started crawling the day he came home from his first day at Aldea. He started walking at ten months old! His physical development has really been encouraged there by his teachers and by seeing other babies at different stages learning to move their bodies. The independent learning has helped him grow and develop at his own pace. His fine motor skills amaze me every day! I can see his little mind working hard to stack blocks, and help clean up, and use musical instruments. Practicing patience and empathy while molding these young minds is what Aldea’s teachers excel at. I’ve also gotten so many wonderful educational resources from the teachers and director. This allows me to implement the Montessori method at home as well which ultimately gives my son all the best resources he needs to grow and learn. I don’t know where I would be without Aldea.

I can’t express how happy I am to have found Aldea. The staff has been amazing! They have been patient with my son as he came from a daycare/ preschool setting. I saw a different in him since the 1st week he started! He went from not being interested in pencils or crayons to wanting to write and color and wanting to look thru books. He also goes to work with me on certain days. He use to only want my phone for that hour or so. Now he rather have his crayons, books, building blocks and crafts. My only regret is that I didn’t find them sooner.

We felt Aldea is definitely a village with skilled and loving staff to raise our Child. We were very happy with our daughters progress in Aldea. Sessions for parents are very helpful to understand how can one incorporate Montessori at home also. Our daughter misses being in Aldea.

My son started at Aldea this past June. He transferred from another pre school that was not meeting his needs. Aldea was an amazing turning point for my son. He learns so much everyday and truly enjoys his time with his teachers and peers. I could not be happier about our decision to join the Aldea family. My only regret is that we did not find them sooner:)

Aldea was our first experience in a Montessori setting and we couldnt be more pleased. The teachers are warm and knowledge, the staff is responsive and helpful, the Head of School is approachable and so very passionate about her work. With the help and guidance of Aldea Montessori, we are raising a helpful, independent and confident little girl. We are so fortunate to be part of the community!

This school is AMAZING. Great staff, teachers, and parent group. True haven for free thinking parents and children. Lots of fun activities throughout the year for the school community. I LOVE the teachers. Everyone is kind and understanding. I couldnt have imagined a better place to put my child.

My two children have been here for a year now and we absolutely love it! The teachers are so great and really take great care of the children.The entire place is full of wonderful people and it feels like family there. I have one in the casa and one in the toddler house and the environment in both rooms is clean and beautiful and inviting. We love the Spanish immersion and the Yoga and the cultural diversity. I really cant say enough how much we love having our kids here. They are so far ahead of other kids their age my now five year old was reading at four and speaking Spanish and singing in Spanish. You will LOVE it! The kids are really independent and enjoy being successful.

Today my son had his Journey Around the Sun to celebrate his 3rd birthday with his classmates. It was a wonderful experience for him and for me to see just how happy he was to be there, sharing his pictures and his gift to the class. My son started out in the Toddler House last year and transitioned to the primary class about one month ago. He loves the teachers and learning new things every day. I just cant say enough good things about the school.

My daughter has been going to this school since she was 3. I cant say enough wonderful things about the academics, community, and environment. My child feels nurtured, loved and excels because of the wonderful teachers and staff. The classrooms are very home-like, clean and safe. This is a true AMI Montessori school. A must see!!!

Was a wonderful, loving, caring place for my son before all the changes with the school and staff (front office) a year ago. The unprofessionalism and rudeness of the staff and especially the director is shocking!! Unfortunately this once welcoming school feels to me like money and expansions became a priority over children’s naps, activity’s, and most important education. How is it OK for children 3,4,5 years be on the same path of development, crammed in one room together,learning the same Curriculums? It’s not !!!!!!I bet all that extra income from the infant room, cramming kids in rooms together, and take nap time out, or as they told me (naps are optional to the children ) is really paying off. It’s a shame what this location has done to the Montessori name.
