What Our Parents Say

  • “We are so lucky that our two sons get to attend AlMayameen, it is truly an answered prayer. The standard has been set so high we are struggling to find a place for our elder son who is now too old for AlMayameen! AlMayameen really embodies the Islamic Montessori philosophy. The students are nurtured holistically and their fitrah is protected. The staff work with their heart, and you can feel their warmth, care and sincerity towards the children…nurturing the children physically, spiritually, intellectually and emotionally.”

    — Abeer

  • “Enrolling at AlMayameen has been one of the best decisions we’ve made as a family. The school offers so much more than a rich Montessori curriculum. It’s a nurturing environment where children are respected as individuals and guided with gentleness. [our daughter] has grown in confidence, independence, and kindness. She comes home excited to share what she’s learned, not just about language and mathematics, but also about grace and courtesy, compassion, responsibility, and faith. It’s rare to find a place that blends [Montessori/Islamic values] so beautifully. The staff are sincere, present, and genuinely invested in the children’s well-being. We’re incredibly grateful to be part of this community, a place where hearts and minds grow together.”

    — Aziza

  • “No words can describe the harmony and serenity that you feel when you step foot into AlMayameen. Our experience at AlMayameen has only been positive. Seeing his big smile at pickup and drop-off puts us at complete ease that he is in the best of care; he is thriving. We are so grateful to the entire AlMayameen team for lifting our child, and all the children in their care, so they may flourish happily.”

    — Hala

  • “I can say this from first hand experience that AlMayameen is miles above the rest when it comes to providing holistic learning. I highly recommend AlMayameen to all parents who are thoughtful and conscious of raising their children in a beautiful community.”

    — Fawad

  • “In just under two months, the changes I’ve seen in [my daughter] have truly lightened my heart. She has blossomed into a more confident and compassionate child, showing beautiful empathy toward younger and older children, a reflection of the values nurtured at AlMayameen. Her Arabic has also improved so much! The teachers are more than educators; they are like family, sisters and aunts who care for her with such love and dedication. It fills me with joy to see her thrive in this nurturing environment, and I can’t wait for my youngest to join this beautiful family, insha’Allah.”
