"Bambini is the most special place. It’s one of the best decisions we’ve made for our son. Their approach to learning and development has brought out the best in him. For the first time, he truly loves going to school!"

"Our twin boys have been attending this school for the last 6 months, and are thriving here. We joined this school with very high expectations, and so far, all our hopes and expectations have been met. Calling out just a few of the many positives we've found here - 1. Devoted founder, head of school and experienced AMI-trained Montessori teachers. Our boys are in the Nido classroom, and every single staff member in the classroom goes way above and beyond in partnering and collaborating with us towards our boys' development and well-being. All the Nido staff are absolute angels - competent, kind, *very* hard-working and genuinely caring. 2. Instruction that is true to Montessori roots - from the classroom setup to the daily activities, we've seen firsthand how they foster independence, self-motivation and curiosity. 3. Great digital communication - the school uses Brightwheel and Transparent Classroom for updates. Transparent classroom is a popular tool among Montessori schools to track the students' progress. Guides are very responsive over both Brightwheel messages and email. Shorter questions and discussions are welcome at pickup time. The digital communication is especially helpful to keep tabs on the kids while at work and avoid anxiety if you are not the parent who is doing pickup/drop-off. I've sent in brief questions sometimes over email only to find the Nido guide responding with a well-crafted, thorough document for me to follow, that she spent an hour or more creating. 4. Regular observation hours and parent-teacher meetings - observation hours are available every ~2 months and each time we go we are amazed by the capabilities the kids have picked up. Parent-teacher conferences are 45 minutes every 2 months and we get detailed reports on their progress with daily life (eating, sleeping, social-emotional functional around peers) as well cognition and academics. 5. Great care and energy invested in parents' concerns - Zoe and the staff are really good at prioritizing parental concerns and making time to partner with the parents on a collaborative roadmap/plan ahead. We've experienced this first-hand on several occasions - first when the transition from a nanny at home to school was difficult for the boys, and then periodically as developmental issues around eating, sleep training, toddler tantrums have come up. 6. Standardized everything - school provides uniforms, diapers, lunches and snacks. The school leads the way with potty training (or "toilet learning" as Montessorians prefer to call it). We are able to discuss our experiences with the boys at home, what's working and what is not, and compare how they are doing at home and at school, get ideas for what we want to try at home. This sort of a partnership is very valuable to us. At the end of the year the kids get an annual yearbook with beautiful photos of the class doing activities throughout the year and my boys have spent hours going over those memories."
