Why Montessori?

Montessori education is based on the natural development of the child. It fosters independence, curiosity, and a lifelong love for learning. Our classrooms encourage hands-on, self-paced, and purposeful learning experiences, guided by highly trained Montessori educators.

Our Story

For over 25 years, Cave Creek Montessori has been a family-run school, dedicated to creating a warm and supportive learning environment. Founded by Roy and Kathy in 1998, the school started in their family home with just one classroom. Today, we have expanded to 5 classrooms, serving toddlers through kindergarten.

Director Kelsey, who grew up in Montessori education herself, carries forward her family’s passion for nurturing young minds. With a team of dedicated educators, we continue to inspire children to embrace learning as a joyful and lifelong journey.

What Parents Say

  • Bhavani Mullapudi

    This is a wonderful school with genuinely kind and caring teachers and staff. And this school has a welcoming and inclusive environment that fosters a sense of community among the students and parents. The facilities are top-notch, with plenty of outdoor space for the kids to play and explore.
    My son loves going to school every day, and he never complains. His initial transition to school was easy, to my surprise, as they have a pony and goats. I have seen my son grow from a shy kid at the age of three to a confident five-year-old with strong educational and social skills. His love for learning has been cultivated here. Every time he learns something new, he gets excited to come home and share it with us, be it sign language or telling time.
    His love for reading books and writing stories all started here. I highly recommend CCM.

  • Donald K.

    Our granddaughter and grandson both attend CCM and we are so pleased and impressed with the teachers, administrative staff and facilities. The school has everything for the children both from a learning perspective and overall socialization. It’s so rewarding to see how much our grandchildren have grown to enjoy discovering new ideas as well as making friends. It’s also very reassuring to know how much CCM cares for the children and includes the entire family in activities and special events on a regular basis. CCM has very high standards and it is reflected in the happy faces of their students, parents and even grandparents!

  • Parent

    Both my children attend Cave Creek Montessori ages 2 and 4. We have been so happy with the Teachers, Staff and administration! Both my kids are EXCITED to go to school every day. The atmosphere, hands on approach and support they provide my children are just what my wife and I look for in a school.

  • Parent

    All three of my children attended CCM from preschool through kindergarten. By the time they finished, each was fluently reading, able to write full sentences, and not only adding and subtracting, but able to multiply and divide as well. Even better, they are all confident learners, approaching each new academic task with the creativity, patience, and critical thinking skills that grew out of their years at CCM. All three developed cose friendships that still remain, even years after kindergarten graduation. This little school built the solid foundation upon which their educations will continue to grow. I am deeply grateful for the love, talented teaching, and guidance my children have received from CCM for the past 8 years. Cannot recommend highly enough!

  • Sophia S

    Amazing school all around and I would highly recommend to anyone! My daughter attended Cave Creek Montessori for four years and she thrives more than ever. My only regret is that I did not send her to school sooner. The teachers at Cave Creek Montessori are nothing short of brilliant, the space is gorgeous and welcoming at the same time. Best school ever!

  • Katie D.

    I’ve sent all three of my children to CCM for preschool through kindergarten and there are not enough words of praise in the world to describe this school. Each of my children came out of CCM fluently reading; able to add, subtract, multiply, and divide; and write full sentences. We’ve had many of the teachers and they have all been so kind and such excellent instructors. Truly, CCM built the foundation upon which my childrens’ educations stand, and I will be grateful for the rest of my life.

  • Yatzi O.

    CCM has been in my family for almost a decade starting with my nephews and now my own children. It has been the best environment for my kids to develop and grow in. All the teachers are absolutely amazing and truly care about each child. I love all the extra curricular programs like Spanish, music and yoga. They also have a mini barn with goats, donkeys and chickens that my kids get to interact with daily. You can’t go wrong with choosing this school. They have been a top learning institution for a very long time and that speaks volumes! Thank you CCM for all the positive things you have brought into our family!!

  • Katherine Stevens

    The fact that my son is excited to go to school each day and smiling when we pick him up is a testament to how great this school is!
