Creating Self-Insured Learners
Our Story
At Inspire Kids Montessori, we are dedicated to providing a nurturing and stimulating environment that fosters the growth and development of young children. Our mission is to inspire children to reach their full potential and to develop a lifelong love of learning in a safe and loving environment. We believe that every child is unique and special, and our programs are designed to honor and celebrate this uniqueness.
Our Philosophy
At Inspire Kids Montessori, we believe in the philosophy of Maria Montessori, who believed that children are born with a natural desire to learn and explore. We provide a prepared environment that allows children to do just that. Our environment is designed to promote independence, creativity, and self-discovery, and our teachers are trained to guide and support each child as they learn and grow.
Programs
We offer a range of programs for children from infants to kindergarten age. Our programs are designed to be individualized and self-paced, allowing each child to learn at their own pace. Our curriculum is well-balanced and includes language, math, science, culture, and art. We also offer accelerated programs for gifted children and enrichment programs in music and movement.

We have two beautiful campuses located in Ahwatukee and Chandler, Arizona. Our campuses are designed to provide a safe and stimulating environment for children to learn and play. Our Ahwatukee campus is located on the southeast corner of Chandler Blvd. and 40th St., just 1-mile west of the I-10 freeway. Our Chandler campus is located on the southeast corner of Queen Creek Road and Gilbert Road in Chandler.

Value for Money
Some parents have expressed concerns about the cost of the half-day program at IKM, particularly with regards to the removal of lunch provision.

She suggests that the school should have cut costs elsewhere rather than removing lunch provision.
