3 Best Preschools in Calgary, AB

As newcomers in Canada, 2024 has been a year filled of challenges, changes and moments of success/setbacks for the Family Radilla Sanchez. First, enrolled my youngest son (Paolo) in FBA McKnight has been one on the best decision we have made in Canada. Per instance, the holiday concert was a magical experience for Paolo and us, it required a lot of preparation and coordination, all the staff involved deserves a gold medal for the patience and hard work on this. Secondly, we appreciated all the FBA staff to made a significant difference in the development of Paolo, his teachers have been a role model for him, every day we see him so happy with the new school, he adapted and embebed FCA values, a different language and the new school so fast and agile, thank you for the tireless efforts in making FCA the place where my son thrive, teachers excel, and families like mine feel welcomed and supported. Finally, we, as parents, are impressed with the commitment of all the staff to going above and beyond in the classroom and being instrumental for the future of Paolo. ¡Thank you for being a guiding light in my child’s education journey. Your passions as Institution is truly remarkable!

We absolutely love Fueling Brains Academy - McKnight! The staff are so kind, caring, and attentive, and our son has built such a wonderful bond with both his teachers and friends. A special shoutout to the team for offering an evening care program on February 6th, giving us a chance to enjoy a night out! My husband and I had a lovely evening, knowing our son was in great hands. He loved the little movie night and had so much fun! It’s amazing to have a daycare that genuinely cares about both the kids and their families!

This has been the perfect space for my son. The team at McKnight are amazing, my son joined fueling brains in September and it’s been the best 4 months to date for him and his development. The way the school welcomed us walked us through the programs was so thorough and well done. I see my son staying at this location until the very end. Thank you McKnight team for all that you do! We appreciate you all!

My son attends this preschool since he was 3.5 years old. At first when I was searching for a preschool for him, to say I was confused is an understatement, I was a nervous wreck. But then I came across grey matter Montessori, and decided to send him here. My decision was not wrong, everything about this school is perfect, the director Miss Shirin, the teachers and assistant teachers are perfect. And best of all they have a one to one dealing and give their full attention to each child. My son’s teacher Miss Claudia always cheers him up when he feels little low. This school is the best for any parent looking to enroll their child in a safe and healthy and learning environment.

It has taken me a few months to write this as life has gotten busy. My daughter, Scarlett went here since 2.5 years old and stayed for two years, absolutely loved it. Seeing how much she’s grown and learned made my heart really happy, and appreciative to all the teachers there. I would’ve put my younger daughter there if we didn’t have to move down south. It’s very difficult to find another preschool like this one. I’ve gone to tours to tours, and the quality is just not the same. I miss this school, Scarlett misses this school, and I really wish more parents know about this school as it’s really one-of-a-kind in this city. You won’t be disappointed!

When we first started our search for a Montessori school for our son, I had a wishlist - Grey Matter Montessori has provided that and much more. I am eternally grateful to the amazing and deeply caring teachers whom have nurtured, encouraged, and helped my son embrace who he is at 4 years old. In the past 2 years, we have seen him grow into a confident and caring little boy who loves to learn, laugh, and make friends. He is enjoying learning more Spanish, and often shares with us what he is learning about in school. He is just happy to go to school, and I cannot say enough about how wonderful our experience has been. For these reasons, we are extremely grateful, and we highly recommend Grey Matter Montessori.
