Montessori of Plainfield

Montessori of Plainfield is the best place on earth for your little ones! The teachers love the kids as if they were their own, and that is evident in everything they do. The kids have so much fun they don't even realize they are learning! My daughter couldn't wait to get to school every day. The philosophy allows the kids to move through lessons and learn skills at their own pace, which gives them so much confidence! My daughter was well ahead of grade level in all subjects when she entered first grade. The foundation she received at Montessori of Plainfield set her up for success for years to come.

Montessori of Plainfield is an incredible school with the heart of the child's individualized needs at the core. Miss Mari Ann has shared information with me that changed my perspective and helped me approach how my son was learning in a respectful and honoring way to him, things I would not have thought of. My son absolutely loves her. Miss Mari Ann seems devoted to her students and undoubtedly cares for each of them. My son, and others seem to have that look of feeling special and important when with her. She goes above and beyond with learning material and with the events the school holds throughout the school year, without losing the focus of the event, the child's experience. Montessori is designed to empower children to care for themselves, and Montessori of Plainfield embodies this philosophy. Thank you, Montessori of Plainfield, and especially Miss Mari Ann!

The care and attention given to the children is outstanding. The interaction with teachers and staff is handle professionally and with care and concern for the children. The school is highly recommended.

We have had three kids graduate from Montessori of Plainfield and I would recommend this school and these wonderful teachers to anyone I know. If the school had continued past kindergarten, I would have happily kept my kids there through elementary. That's how enriching this school is. It's hard to describe a Montessori education to someone who isn't familiar with the philosophy, but what I found most important for my 3 very different kids is that it is individualized. Every child learns differently and is drawn to different materials. Montessori fosters their natural curiosity and feeds their love of learning by having a variety of teaching methods and materials. The teachers are so skilled at observing and assessing what a child might need and creatively meeting those needs. Every child works at their own pace. Instead of information being fed to them as in a traditional learning environment, they are active in their learning and have a variety of choices and approaches to explore. My kids also really benefited from the mixed age group. When a five year old has mastered a task, it's a beautiful thing to watch him help a three year old who is just starting out. This fostered my kids' self confidence and also helped them learn at an early age that we're all part of a community. In addition to the Montessori method, the very best attribute of Montessori of Plainfield are the directors and their staff of teachers. My kids were all taught by Mari-Ann, one of the directors, and you could honestly never find a better teacher, or a more loving and nurturing human being. She loves all of her students and Montessori families as if they were her own. This is so much more than a job to her. It's a passion and a calling. She gives 150% every day. My youngest child is on the autism spectrum and she struggled during those early years before diagnosis. Mari-Ann never gave up on trying to reach her. She didn't treat her like a behavior problem. She helped us figure out what was going on and she met my daughter where she was at, took her hand, and helped her move forward in a way that worked for her. That is a remarkable quality in a teacher. Watching her teach actually helped me be a better parent. I can't give any higher praise than that.
