Montessori Stepping Stones, Mount Clemens | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

I fell in love with Montessori Stepping Stones the first moment I stepped inside. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and the classrooms were gorgeous and filled with beautiful displays of Montessori materials. That was more than nine years ago and now I have two children that attend Montessori Stepping Stones. Through the authentic Montessori environment, both of them have been able to explore and develop a love of learning in a safe atmosphere of acceptance created by a warm and caring staff. As a result, they have been able to develop into the amazingly unique individuals that they are and are truly valued as people in the classroom community. The Montessori environment, which includes multi-age classrooms, provides a unique opportunity for children to develop life skills including leadership and working with others. It is also an environment which inspires exploration, creativity, and empathy. As a result, my ten year old daughter is an exceptionally well-rounded individual that displays a quiet confidence and has acquired an incredible knowledge of herself. As a parent, I developed such respect and affection for the school that I was inspired to pursue further education to become a certified Montessori teacher and started working at Montessori Stepping Stones over three years ago. My love of the Montessori philosophy and this school continues to grow daily.

During my tour as a prospective parent, I was met with a friendly, positive and informed lifelong educator and a beautifully prepared, authentic Montessori environment. I left knowing that this peaceful, affirming school is where I hoped my children would spend their days. Four years later, I am just as confident in my decision. Each of my three children has a different temperament, and a unique set of strengths and challenges. I can tell that their teachers care for them as people and interact with them thoughtfully – with purpose, respect and understanding. Problem solving is handled with creativity in order to find workable solutions. I appreciate that the lessons can be tailored, so children can repeat difficult concepts without a negative stigma or move ahead quickly if that is the pace best suited to their needs. Additionally, I believe there is great value in the way the Montessori approach incorporates freedom of movement while developing of self-control. This school is faithfully meeting the needs of each individual child with a fabulous teacher to child ratio, and the staff is guiding students toward academic and personal growth.

This school is beyond amazing. I literally do not know where to start with the love I have for this institution and the staff. This place is more than a school, it’s like a second home for my children and an amazing support system for myself. Both of my children attend Montessori, I have a primary student (6year old) and a middle schooler known as a adolescent student (12 year old). I am truly amazed with the level of education both my child have accomplished while attending, including the mental and emotional teachings here as well. I have seen such a growth in both my children sometimes it amazes the conversations we have! It’s all thanks to the staff. You will not be disappointed by sending you child here!
