    We are so grateful to first path Montessori ! My son, who will turn two next month, started here about a month ago. Before joining, he was experiencing some delayed speech, but in just a short time, we’ve noticed a significant improvement. He’s much more talkative now and always happy and excited about his day. A big thank you to the wonderful teachers for their care and support – we can see how much he enjoys his time there. Highly recommend this amazing place!

    My kid attended the First Path Montessori Nursery just for 3 months but she really picked up a lot of new skills during those months. Her teachers made sure that the kids get to learn different aspects of lives and society. The staff was quite accommodative to the parents requests. Unfortunately, we could not continue because of the relocation but it was really enriching experience for my daughter

    Our son has been at First Path Montessori Nursery for almost a year now, and we couldn’t be happier with his progress. His social skills have blossomed remarkably – he’s made wonderful friends and truly looks forward to every day there. The nurturing and caring environment has given him the confidence to express himself and connect with others. A special mention goes to Larissa, the manager, she’s so experienced, attentive and helpful and also Miss Myriem, whose incredible language skills (she speaks five languages!) and attentive approach have had a fantastic impact on our son. Her dedication and warmth make every child feel valued and understood, which has been so important in our son’s early years. Thank you, First Path Montessori, for providing such a loving and supportive foundation for our child. We’re so grateful for the wonderful start you’ve given him!

    We couldn’t be more grateful for the incredible team at First Path Montessori - Early Childhood Center. From day one, we felt confident and happy with our decision to make this our son’s second home. A special thank you to Miss Myriem, who is truly an absolute gem—her care, love, and dedication shine through in everything she does. She treats the children as if they were her own, and her passion for teaching is reflected in all her students. My son adores her, and it’s clear how much she positively influences her students. As a mother, I feel completely at ease knowing she's there, because I trust that my son is in the best hands. The entire staff at First Path Montessori is amazing, without a single exception. Their warm, nurturing environment and genuine care make all the difference. We feel so lucky to be part of this wonderful community. Thank you all for being such a positive part of our son’s journey
