Elena Montessori is a highly recommended preschool that provides a caring and enriching environment for children. The school is led by dedicated guides who are certified by AMS and AMI, ensuring high-quality, personalized instruction. Classrooms are well-equipped, and the school emphasizes tailored learning experiences that promote social skills, conflict resolution, and overall development. The facilities include a beautiful outdoor play area with new turf, allowing children to enjoy outdoor activities and water days, which contribute to their physical and social growth. Parents appreciate the low student-to-teacher ratios, which enable attentive care and meaningful interactions. The staff genuinely care about the children, creating a warm and supportive community where kids feel excited to attend and learn. Many teachers are bilingual, exposing children to Spanish and fostering early language development alongside the Montessori approach. The school offers structured learning, creative activities, and opportunities for socialization, helping children grow academically, socially, and emotionally. Although a newer school still working towards additional accreditations, Elena Montessori actively improves its programs, including parent-teacher feedback and curriculum updates. Overall, it is a nurturing environment that encourages children to reach their full potential while enjoying a fun, safe, and educational experience.
The teachers and admin in this place care so much for the children. Most of them are bilingual and I love how children can get exposed to Spanish at an early age while getting the Montessori approach as well!

I’ve visited and tried several daycares in the Scottsdale/Fountain Hills area and this place is excellent! They truly care about each child with low teacher/student ratios, structured learning, and many other reasons. I highly recommend this school!

This school has the perfect balance of education, socialization and creativity. My 3 yr old granddaughter has gown so much in the little time she’s been there. Glad to have other pre-school options in Fountai Hills.
