About Marian Montessori

We Encourage Development and Growth

Marian Montessori was founded in July of 1990 as the culmination of the founder’s approaches used with her own children as well as the growing desires, she had for her own grandchildren’s childhood development.

Modeling a warm and inviting family atmosphere set in a carefully prepared home environment, Marian Montessori facilitates a smooth ‘home-to-school transition’, thereby, maintaining a 100% comfort zone.

The professional services of qualified and caring educators ensure a premium quality of care and guidance in our prepared home environment setting, all the while maintaining safety, security, and special care through features like added monitoring, documentation, and surveillance.
AN Optimal Learning Environment

What we Offer

We offer a constantly developing program by utilizing a variety of materials and methods to ensure that the learning environment is optimal. Our program is a combination of several current leading and time-tested styles of education.

At Marian Montessori, we believe in the unending potential of a child’s mind, the competence, capabilities, and curiosity of a child that needs to be fed and provided for, the great potential that needs nurturing, encouragement, and the application of necessary tools within the specially prepared environment.

Our aim at Marian Montessori is to see a child yearning to enter through its’ doors each day and to leave at peacefully fulfilled at the end of the day!

I am so glad we found this school for our little girl. She absolutely loves it and is thriving there. Wonderful staff, Montessori curriculum, engaging activities, nutritious meals and snacks, and plenty of outdoor play when the weather permits. We know our little one is getting the very best care and that she is learning new things daily in a warm and supportive environment.

I have always felt that my child has been well cared for by the teachers at this school. Previously there were some challenges with the administration, however the hiring of a new Director this Fall has made a definitive difference. The recent renovations to the interior, and the exterior landscaping have given this longstanding school a refresh. The children learn daily living activities such as brushing their teeth, and how to dress themselves, and are exposed to music, movement and French. The teachers and Director are quick to respond to parents on the communication app. It is evident that the teachers and administration are truly invested in the well-being of the children, and providing them with a strong educational foundation.

My son enjoyed his time at this daycare. The teachers take the time to build personal connections with each child, making them feel seen, supported, and cared for. The director, Ms. Somayah, also goes above and beyond to address any concerns or questions parents may have, which gave me great peace of mind. I really appreciate the warm & professionalism.

The new management team is doing a stellar job of ensuring there is a safe learning environment for the children. The teachers are caring and put in a lot of effort into the program planning and we love that they keep us updated through the Lillio app.

We started my 1 1/2 year old there in September this year. It took about a month for her to transition and she is doing great. The staff have been patient informative and friendly. They have redone the outdoor play area, have a new updated app that details her day. Meals, washroom, sleep time, diaper changes and what activities they are doing with pictures. They have French teacher coming in once a week and are starting a music program as well. I would highly recommend to any parent to check out the Montessori as our daughter is thriving there right now.

I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Marian Montessori. The staff is incredibly caring, attentive, and truly goes above and beyond to make sure every child feels comfortable and engaged. My child has grown to the warm environment they provide. Highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a safe and nurturing place for their child. Huge thanks to Mrs. Marie and to the rest of the staff.

My son has been attending this Montessori School since 2022. I am so happy and pleased with all of the positive changes this school has taken on the in the recent months. There were definitely some things that needed some attention and I’m so glad I was patient through the upgrading process. Once the parents concerns were heard it truly didn’t take long to see the dedicated planning to make things better. New staff, teachers, a better schedule to follow, amazing communication between all staff & parents, and of course all the beautiful, functional renovations that also took place. I now take so much pride in seeing my almost 5 year old grow even more in his life skills and learning development. The highly qualified staff & teachers are very present and encouraging with the students. My son has developed a great sense of independence and is proud to be helpful, thoughtful and take on big tasks! Thank you Marian Montessori for all your hard work and dedication to the students. We are very happy with our experience to date.

I have two children attending Marian Montessori since 2021 to present. The school did go through a period of turmoil from March of 2024 to September. I was concerned but also patient as they worked through the issues. I can now say that since they've hired a new Director, the quality of the daycare has improved drastically. They've installed a new app for updates, hired a French teacher, renovated the backyard, painted and installed new flooring. The activities change weekly and they are learning constantly, like true Montessori style. If I didn't believe the daycare had improved, I wouldn't be writing this review. Keep up the good work, your hard work is paying off. I'm giving Marian Montessori a five star rating as it stands today, and not based on the issues from earlier this year. I believe in second chances and feel my children will be well equipped to start school when they come of age.

My daughter has been at this school for the past year and her teachers have been amazing with her. I feel like she's well taken care of and she's learning a lot more here than the last daycare my other children went to. They've also done a great job with the new renovations to the flooring and the outside playground.

As a parent with two daughters here, I’ve seen the changes the school has gone through recently. Yes, the renovation and management transition were a bit challenging, but I’m so glad it happened. With the director back and a strong team in place, the school feels organized and well-managed. The teachers are qualified and truly dedicated. My older daughter, now one of the top students in her kindergarten class, has grown into a confident and caring child, thanks to the foundation she got at Marian Montessori. My younger daughter is following in her sister’s footsteps, and I couldn’t be happier with our experience here.
Jingxuan M.
My son has been attending this daycare since summer 2024. Things have improved significantly since he joined. There is now a much better app with daily communication. The backyard and indoor space have been renovated. They also hired a certified Montessori french teacher to teach the kids French on Tuesdays. My son has grown to master utensils, learned to walk, put on socks and become very independent the past few months. I know the owner and the supervisor are trying and only want the best for the children and are willing to take in feedbacks to make further improvement.
