Our daughter has been going to Kinderhouse Montessori School for last last 3 years. She joined in toddler class when she was 2.5 years. This school has made such a positive impact on our daughter`s life. The teachers & the staff are wonderful. The teachers are caring, teach in small groups & let each child go at his or her own pace. Focus is on kid`s independence. They also use materials to help children understand the lessons in different ways and make learning things interesting & fun. Our daughter has made remarkable progress not only academically but also in social, emotional and behavioral aspects. The school is dedicated towards development of the whole child.The staff is always approachable and respond to any queries/concerns in a timely mannerWe are very grateful to the teachers and staff for the amazing difference they have made in our daughter`s life and for instilling love for learning !
