  We have had such a wonderful experience. My child has been attending the school, and I have been very happy with the care, attention, and learning environment they provide. What I appreciate most is how nurturing and attentive the teachers are. They really take the time to know each child and understand their individual personality and needs. My child comes home talking about the different activities they did throughout the day, and I love seeing how much they are learning while also having fun. The Montessori activities, art projects, science and STEM experiences, outdoor time, and special school events give the children so many opportunities to explore and learn. The smaller group of children has also been a huge plus for us. My child receives a lot of individual attention from the teachers, and I can see the difference it has made in confidence, independence, and overall development. Big shout out to Ms Selva, Ms Brianna, and Ms Shanti. Thank you for always going the extra mile and making it special for the children and families.

  As a father of two children who have attended Learn And Play Montessori School in Palo Alto, I couldn’t be happier with our experience. My older child recently graduated, and my younger one is excited to begin. I can confidently say it has been an incredible journey for our family. The teachers are truly caring, patient, and dedicated to each child’s growth. A special thank you to Ms. Angela, Ms. Shanti, Ms. Michelle, Ms. Kamela, and Ms. Sunny for creating such a nurturing and engaging environment. They genuinely care about the children and make learning fun through a variety of hands-on activities, Montessori materials, art, STEM projects, outdoor play, and special events that keep the children excited to come to school every day. I also want to recognize Ms. Selva and Ms. Brianna for doing an outstanding job managing the school. They are approachable, communicative, and always willing to partner with families. It is clear they care deeply about both the children and the staff, and that shows in the positive atmosphere throughout the school. Overall, Learn And Play Montessori School in Palo Alto has exceeded our expectations. It is a warm, welcoming, and nurturing school with exceptional teachers and leadership. I highly recommend this school to any family looking for a place where their children will be loved, challenged, and supported every step of the way.

  My son has been at the school since he was 2 years old. It was a wonderful choice. I noticed that he has been learning a lot (more than my previous kid who went to a different school), and is always looking forward to going to school. The teachers are responsible, keep timeline communications and caring. I will definitely recommend the school to my friends

  This is one of the best school for young kids, where the teachers are very patient and take good care of all kids. Miss Selva, the new amazing director, brought expertise to this center to lead in academic and social learnings for the children. The kids are in a safe and academic environment conducive for learning. We would recommend to all of our friends' kids to attend here at Learn & Play Montessori Palo Alto location!
