Both of my daughters attended this school…read more Two minutes into our initial tour of this school, a calm and peaceful feeling came over me, and I just knew that this would be the right school for my daughter. My wife felt the same way. Picking your child's first school is a very important step in parenthood. I was nervous and excited for my daughter to start her educational career at Adobe Montessori. So much so that I actually spent the first day of school sitting in my car in the parking lot, just in case the school needed me to pick her up for any reason. She loved the school from the first day, and I was so relieved. This school was the perfect fit for her. We loved the school so much that when the time came for our younger daughter to go to start school, we had her attend the same school. My family trusts the staff there. They are all good people. They genuinely cared for my children and my children loved them. I owe them my deepest appreciation for helping to mold my children into good people. Adobe Montessori was more than just a school, it is a place that works with families to teach their children how to be independent thinkers. My children are in the public school system now. They are in a more "traditional" system. I know that a lot of parents out there worry about how their children will transition into a traditional school. When your child leaves Adobe Montessori, he/she will already be trained to adapt to any situations the traditional school system present. Adobe Montessori is a great first step in your child's journey into the world of education.

Casa Del Niño has been such an amazing experience for my daughter and our family for the last two…read moreyears. From the first day we toured the school it felt like we were home. I felt welcomed by the entire staff and everyone made my daughter feel comfortable while touring the classrooms. Casa has been an ENCOURAGING, FUN AND SAFE environment for my daughter. The teachers and staff have been kind, understanding and attentive to us throughout our entire time. Here are some of my thoughts: [Location] We ABSOLUTELY love the location! The school is beautifully designed to honor the Montessori values (Outdoor learning, gardening, etc.) The classrooms are setup to foster rigorous, self-motivated growth for our children in all areas of their development. The shops and restaurants close by are very kid friendly. My daughter is regular at Bottle & Bean. And, parents make an effort to get together there for coffee, etc. [Staff + Teachers] The teachers go above and beyond to ensure that our kids feel seen, safe, treated with kindness and are developing at their natural pace. My daughter has improved SO much in math, writing and Spanish since attending Casa. I cannot tell you enough how her teachers have truly been invested in her development. She is sent home with reading and math practices daily. It is important to HIGHLIGHT that my daughter understands and speaks Spanish. As parents we are strongly encouraged to work with our children at home to build on what they learn at school. [Families] I have met some of THE BEST parents at Casa Del Niño. We honor, respect and love all of our backgrounds. Many of us work to keep our kids connected outside of school because they genuinely love and care for one another. [Student Engagement] Our kids are celebrated every year when teachers host a "celebration of life" to honor their birthdays. It is one of the most thoughtful experiences my daughter has ever had at any school. The kids get to participate in it which is think is a great way to deepen their appreciation for one another. Last fall (2022) we had an AMAZING fall festival and where all students, staff and families got together for face painting, crafts, donations (created peace packs to hand out to those in need), outdoor play, a photo booth AND MORE! The teachers go ABOVE AND BEYOND to thoroughly and respectfully celebrate all cultures and ethnicities. This was important for me as a Black parent raising a Black child. I love the student and family engagement! Casa Del Niño is THE Spanish Immersion Montessori to school to attend. All of my questions, ideas and concerns have always been addressed promptly, kindly, and handled with care. We love it here and I believe you will too!

It's a small and intimate setting, allowing the teachers to really focus on each of the kids individual needs and interests. Isabella has zest for teaching children how to perform tasks on their own and learn to be independent. She has an abundance of knowledge in the Montessori ways, and truly is so passionate about educating and developing each of the children. She genuinely cares, which you don't see that often these days. Always available to me if I have questions or concerns and willing to give different ideas or approaches to teaching our child. The school was also very helpful in potty training my daughter, keeping me informed about any happenings throughout the day regarding her progress/ struggles. Very thankful for all they have helped my daughter with and the incredible progress she's made since attending this school. No doubt she is ahead of most kids her age, with the assistance of Isabella and her gracious team.

Very rarely any issues, all the children seem to get along with one another and the environment is very welcoming and accommodating. Student:Teacher ratio is decent but manageable. Met a lot of new families, many of whom we're still in contact with. The only reason we're no longer at the school is because we moved to a new place pretty far but would still go to Spondeo! Ms. Kim and Ms. Nicolette are both incredible. My little one absolutely loved being in class with them and would always look forward to school every day. Ms. Kim takes a lot of time to make sure each child is learning and cares for them immensely. Humble brag but my child is ahead of her peers at her new school and her teacher has mentioned how impressed she is seeing everything learned from Ms. Kim. My kid was reading at age 3, counting to 100 and simple addition by age 4. After two years of study my child is in the upper range for Kinder & 1st grade reading and math thanks to being in Ms. Kim's class. She's always been very transparent and keeps parents abreast of their little one's learning throughout the week and activities. Highly recommend Spondeo.

I genuinely don't know if we could ever put into words how grateful we are for Spondeo Montessori…read more Our daughter is twice exceptional, or 2E. She is gifted academically, but she also has needs that simply do not fit neatly into a traditional classroom model. Before coming to Spondeo, we were at a gifted school in the Chandler district and were repeatedly told that what she needed most was a gifted environment so she wouldn't be bored. On paper, that made sense. In reality, it was an awful fit for her. What we have learned is that being gifted was never the whole picture. Yes, she needs to be challenged academically, and she absolutely thrives when given the opportunity to move at her own pace. But she also needs an environment that understands her nervous system, gives her room to regulate, and does not demand conformity simply for the sake of making a child fit into a traditional mold. That is where Spondeo has been such a blessing. They see the whole child. They recognize that a student can be incredibly advanced academically while still needing patience, flexibility, movement, choice, sensory support, and a different approach when something feels overwhelming. Instead of treating those needs like obstacles, Spondeo works with them. They meet her where she is and still continue to help her grow. Academically, she is able to flourish. She can work at the level she is capable of without being artificially held back by age or grade expectations. But what means even more to us is that Spondeo understands that education is not just about how quickly a child can read, write, or do math. A child has to feel safe enough to learn. They have to trust the adults around them. They have to be given space to become independent without constantly being forced into compliance. We have seen such a difference in our daughter since coming here. She walks into school independently. She is participating, completing work, building relationships, and finding success again. For some families, those things may sound ordinary. For us, after the school experiences we came from, they are enormous. The communication from her teachers has also been thoughtful, honest, and compassionate. When something is difficult, the conversation is not simply about what she did wrong. They look at what happened, what she needed in that moment, what strategies might help, and how everyone can support her moving forward. That approach has brought our family a level of peace that we did not have before. For a long time, we thought the answer was simply finding a better gifted school. It turns out what our daughter really needed was Montessori. She needed an environment like Spondeo, where her giftedness could be nurtured without sacrificing her emotional well-being, where her differences were understood instead of punished, and where she could be challenged without being forced to conform. Spondeo has been an absolute blessing to our family. Five stars honestly does not feel like enough. We cannot sing their praises loudly enough, and we are incredibly grateful that our daughter found a place where she can finally thrive as the whole child she is.

Nikki and Sheri far exceed your normal preschool curriculum. They do a great job learning your child's interest and allowing them to explore and develop in areas they love while still doing lessons in core areas. Hands down recommend them to any and all parents looking for a preschool option for their child. The only downside is for parents needing a full day of coverage. They do not have extended hours as they are not a daycare. But if you can make their hours work for you, do it!

The teachers here are incredibly well-trained in nurturing and guiding kids aged 1-4, and I can see the results every day. One of the biggest milestones for us has been potty training. My daughter is getting the support she needs at school, and it's clicking! She comes home so happy and fulfilled, singing, dancing, and playing. I was initially so worried about putting her in daycare, as she was a Velcro baby and would always scream when she wasn't with me. But the environment is so warm and welcoming that she quickly became comfortable and now loves going to school. What makes this place truly special is the variety of enriching activities. My daughter helps take care of the chickens, tends the organic garden, and enjoys reading, drawing, dancing, and playing with her friends. The magic these teachers create in their classrooms is truly amazing--they know just how to care for my baby girl, and I feel so lucky to have found them. I also love how transparent and communicative the school is. I receive daily text message updates, so I always know what's going on with my daughter, which gives me so much peace of mind. The school worked with us on our budget and schedule, and I really appreciate how upfront they are with pricing and schedules on their website--no hidden surprises. Ms. Jennifer, the owner, made us feel like family from day one, and I'm so grateful for the warm, nurturing environment she's created. I honestly feel like we hit the jackpot with this preschool. It's the best possible place for our daughter, and I would recommend it to any parent looking for a magical, loving environment where their child can grow and thrive!

My daughter enjoys a variety of Montessori lessons, given to kids at their own pace. The lessons are more like fun games to her. I think she also likes to interact with kids of different ages (18 months - 3 years old in one class). Because of a small class size, all kids get attention from the teachers. They are experienced Montessori teachers and also loving and caring. They made efforts to comfort my daughter during her first weeks. My daughter (and I) have been very happy. I highly recommend the school.
