- AIAric IsaacsonAug 1, 20185.0DMA is the BEST place in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area for your child. Our 4 year old attended 2 other preschools before attending DMA, and we toured about a dozen others. Deena, April, Yoga Amy (as my son calls her) and all the teachers and staff are exceptionally well trained, caring, compassionate and fun! Our son looks forward to going every morning, never wants to leave and has never complained about a negative experience. Plus, curb side pickup and drop off is super convenient!
