  • We love Aurora Montessori. Our son has been here and loves it. We had to move to another Montessori for a few months and my son hated being there. When we changed back to Aurora he’s been so happy. All the teachers , assistants and admin staff are always happy to see us and are so cheerful. It’s rubs off on kids too and they’re all so happy. It’s such a joy. We’ve done enrichment programs as well. Blessed to have found this care and all the people there. Thank you for having us :)

  • Very happy with Aurora Montessori. For us, as parents it was very important about our child’s first school experience. And 3 yrs down the lane we feel we made the right choice. We are happy about how the Montessori has groomed our kid to be confident, independent, disciplined, smart, kind and respectful. Every staff we met are dedicated and great at their job. They are kind and considerate. Regular PTM they conduct helps to know the child’s development and progress while activities such as science and art fairs increases curiosity and interest in the little ones. Classrooms are neat and welcoming with good Montessori materials.

  • We absolutely love Aurora Montessori school! Our 3-year-old has grown so much in confidence, independence, and love for learning since starting here. The teachers are caring, patient, and truly dedicated to each child’s development. The environment is warm, structured, and encourages curiosity and respect. A special thank you to the Room 3 teachers, Ms. Heidi and Ms. Swati, who are both amazing. They are attentive, kind, and genuinely invested in the children, and it really shows in how happy and excited my child is to go to school each day. Communication with families is great, and it’s clear the staff truly care about the children and their success. It gives us such peace of mind knowing our child is in a safe, nurturing, and inspiring place every day. We’re so grateful we found this school and highly recommend it to any parent!

  • Our family has had an outstanding experience with Aurora Montessori. From the first day, we noticed how warm and welcoming the entire community is, and how genuinely the teachers know and care for each child as an individual. The classrooms are beautifully prepared, calm, and organized, giving children the freedom to explore and learn at their own pace while still feeling secure and supported. The Montessori approach here is truly authentic. The teachers are highly trained, consistently respectful, and masterful at guiding rather than directing, which has helped our child become more independent, confident, and curious about learning. We have watched our child grow not only academically, but also socially and emotionally, developing skills like responsibility, problem-solving, and kindness toward others. Communication with parents is excellent. We always feel informed about what is happening in the classroom, and any questions or concerns are addressed quickly and thoughtfully. The sense of community is another major strength: families, teachers, and staff work together, creating an environment where children feel they belong and are encouraged to do their best. We are incredibly grateful to have found Aurora Montessori and could not be happier with the education and care our child is receiving. For any family looking for a nurturing, respectful, and truly child-centered Montessori school, we wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend

  • We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Aurora Montessori School! My daughter Myra has been attending since she was 18 months old, and now at almost 4, she absolutely loves her school. From day one, she has thrived in the nurturing, engaging environment the school provides. The teachers and staff are amazing, they truly care about each child’s growth and happiness. Myra has had such wonderful teachers over the years. As a toddler, she absolutely adored Miss Nidhi, Miss Daniel, and Miss Maddie, they made learning fun and helped her build confidence from the beginning. In her current classroom, Miss Karthee and Miss Luliana have been phenomenal. They work hard with the kids each day and have been instrumental in helping Myra academically and socially. Their dedication shows, and we see the progress Myra makes week after week. Special shout-out to Miss Lisa, Miss Amy, and Miss Robin, Myra lights up when she talks about them. You can tell that they genuinely love what they do, and it makes all the difference in creating a positive school experience. We also want to give a big thank you to Ms. Micheal for the amazing food every day, it’s clear that a lot of thought and care goes into what the kids are served. Overall, the supportive community, dedicated teachers, and the joy Myra has for learning make this school truly special for our family. We’re so grateful for all the love, guidance, and growth she’s experienced here! 🎉

  • We love Aurora Montessori school. We toured 10 other schools and just felt confident that this was the right place to send our 3 kids here. The staff all care about your kids. The teachers are great with teaching independence and allowing the child to lead in what the want to learn. We absolutely love Ms. Karthee. She is so attentive with the kids and gives us great advice on things we could do better for our youngest child. She challenges the kids so they constantly learn something either academically or in their real world experiences. We loved the kindergarten program with our oldest with Ms. Heidi! She was creative and made learning fun! Lisa and Amy are great with the kids and parents! They carefully observe our kids and help us with the transitions also. We have trusted Aurora Montessori with our kids and have been happy with the experience there. We highly recommend this school for your little one!
