We have truly enjoyed our time as a Palo Alto Montessori family over the past two years. It has been wonderful watching our child learn and grow in the program - both academically (letters, numbers, basic math) and social-emotionally (strong sense of confidence). They have a huge play area and give the kids a lot of outdoor time. The parent community is also very strong. We are grateful to PAMS and the teachers at the school for all of their care and support. Highly recommend this preschool.

Our daughter went to Palo Alto Montessori School from ages 3 to 5. As parents who highly value our child's early education journey, we couldn't have asked for a better place to lay the foundation. She thrived there.
The school leads a purposeful path to early education. Their program and activities are crafted with intention and purpose that ignited our daughter's curiosity and nurtured her creativity. Her skills and interests were recognized and supported, and she grew in confidence.
What set the school apart is its deep-rooted connection to the lineage of Maria Montessori herself. The school's rich history and commitment to the Montessori philosophy provided a rare opportunity for our child to experience education. The family tradition added another layer of authenticity to the preschool experience, also making it a warm and nurturing environment.
And the staff's reliability, knowledge, and wealth of experience were evident. Their ability to connect with both parents and children created a sense of community that was invaluable during our child's formative years. And especially during COVID, they did a phenomenal job creating an environment that was both safe and sane.
It is bittersweet to leave as our daughter has moved onto Kindergarten, but we are so very grateful to have started our journey with the school.

We couldn't have asked for a better preschool for our son! His initial start date was delayed by 4 months due to COVID. However, once he did start it quickly became clear that Dinesh and his team had taken all the necessary precautions to provide a safe, yet fun environment for all the kids.
You may find loads of preschools in the area that carry Montessori in their name. But once you talk to Dinesh you'll quickly realise that he truly embraces and embodies all Montessori values and principles.
We're beyond grateful for the last 3 years and we couldn't recommend this school more highly!

My daughter's time here has been truly enjoyable and transformative. She acquired valuable social skills and also developed the confidence to connect with people from all walks of life. Whether it's with her peers, adults, or newcomers, her ability to engage effortlessly is a testament to the inclusive and nurturing atmosphere of this place, and I'm excited to see how these skills will shape her future.
