We had a wonderful experience at Inspire Kids Montessori in Ahwatukee. Our older daughter attended…read morefor three years, through kindergarten, and we loved the small community feel. The staff made us feel welcome and knew every child by name. There was a great balance of Montessori learning, independence, and fun activities. They also hosted events that gave parents a chance to meet and connect, which helped create a strong sense of community. The director, Ms. Diana, has high standards for her school while also being very kind and generous. Our daughter graduated from kindergarten with a full STO scholarship. After we moved out of the area, our younger daughter transitioned very smoothly to their other campus. We are grateful for our time at Inspire Kids Montessori in Ahwatukee and would recommend it to families looking for a Montessori school in the area.

Baby Harvard! IKM Ahwatukee is amazing! My daughter first…read morestarted at 15mo (my son was due a few months later) it was her first school experience and from day one we were so impressed. The staff is so welcoming, they know every child by name and greet them at the door each morning. If time allows at pick up her teacher will give me a quick update about her day. She started thriving so quickly in every aspect. From the day to day, to the parent workshops, the 2 performances each school year and the STEM presentations I am always impressed with what's to come. I ended up starting my son in the infant classroom at 5months and I could have never imagined that even at that young age the growth and development that I saw with him. He had 100% food aversions and severe atopic dermatitis, the care, consideration and support that he and our family received from his teachers and the staff is next to none! The community that is cultivated there through school events and the Parent Support Organization (PSO) is amazing. The hardest conversation that we and the rest of the parents have is trying to figure out where to send them next that gives us everything that we have received and get at IKM Ahwatukee! This is not a daycare, this is curriculum-based Montessori that celebrates learning, community, culture and excellence!

I am so sad I had to enroll my daughter in another preschool bc I switched jobs and started working longer hours Some of the girls have my number and one of the girls that was there babysits my daughter! Miss Alecia is amazing and my daughter absolutely LOVES her! When I would drop off and if Alecia was there she would run up to her so fast and I was non-existent lol! I always recommend this daycare to my friends with little ones. If I ever switch jobs or get a new schedule, I will definitely come back if they have availability bc my little girl made so many relationships and friends, even with the big kids. Thank you Roz for an unforgettable experience for my daughter and I. We will miss everyone so much!

Both of our daughters started here when they were 3 months old and went here for 3 years before we had to move back to CA. We were so sad to leave the most incredible and caring staffs and amazing facility. Our daughters learned so much from daycare and we always had peace of mind when we dropped them off everyday - thanks for the detailed and constant communication the staffs provided (this was so helpful as first-time parents) and all the artworks and things the girls learned everyday. Both of the girls loved it here like it was their second home. t was evident to us that the teachers care a lot for them. We truly miss this team so much and wish we did not have to move away. Thanks for everything you do, Primrose of West Chandler!

She recently started Kindergarten, and it's clear that Primrose did an outstanding job preparing her. She started school confident and ready, and because of that, she's absolutely loving being in the "big kids" school now. The teachers and staff are amazing. Kind, supportive, and really great with the kids. I honestly can't recommend this school enough. We're so thankful for everything they did to help our daughter grow and get ready for this next big step

The teachers and director are amazing and kind and so very good at what they do. My son has learned and grown so much. Ms Susan, his PreK teacher has prepared him so well for kindergarten, he is starting to read, knows 15 site words, writes all of his letters and numbers and has started simple addition and subtraction. Most importantly, she has instilled a love of learning in him and we can't be more grateful. Incredible staff, safe environment and low ratios. Highly recommend The Springs!!

Every single one of the staff here is so amazing and it helps me feel comfortable leaving my kids in their care!

I do not recommend this school for toddlers…read more I received a message through their app that there had been an incident with my 2 year old son and that he had fallen off a ladder during outside water time. Attached to the message was a picture of my sons face with an extremely large bruise on his left cheek bone. An incident like this warrants more than just a text message from their staff. A phone call would have been more appropriate. Especially since their was a head injury. I most certainly question what their staff is doing during their outside play time, because Ive had multiple conversations / incidences with staff in regards to the little kids playing in the "big kid area" it's clearly not safe for them near there. Unfortunately bc of this incident we are no longer having our son attend Heartprints Montessori. Self-directed activity doesn't mean you let these toddlers do whatever they want and not observe/watch them.

My son started at Ahwatukee Foothills Montessori (AFM) when he just turned three years old, and…read morenow--at the age of four--we're relocating out of state. In those two years, he has truly blossomed. The school has provided an incredibly loving, nurturing, peaceful, and enriching environment that supports not only academics but also social and emotional growth. His teacher, Ms. Lynn, has been extraordinary--gentle, attentive, and genuinely invested in his development. Ms. Meaghan, the director, leads with both heart and high standards, ensuring every child receives exceptional care and education. My child has also benefited from Spanish lessons with the wonderful Sra. Dolores, gaining confidence in both English and Spanish. Moreover, AFM offers this level of quality education at a significantly more affordable tuition compared to other Montessori schools in the area. They have not only taught my son--they have loved him. This is something I will never forget or be able to repay. I wholeheartedly recommend AFM to any family seeking a school that truly nurtures both the heart and mind of children while fully supporting their parents.

We are so thankful for the impact it has had on our child's early development!
