Dancing Moose Montessori School

"Enrolling our son in this school has been one of the best decisions we've ever made. The staff and teachers are great and have helped our son learn and adapt at each stage of his life. The teachers truly care about the children and the effort they put into their lessons is notable. We feel relief knowing that our child is in good hands while we're at work and the peace Dancing Moose provides me is priceless."

"I've already reviewed the West Valley location, but both of my children (ages 5 and 3) are at this South Jordan campus now. I could talk for hours about how amazing this school is. One of the things that has struck me most is that the children of the owners themselves are students and they are happy and thriving as well. It's comforting to know that the people in charge have a vested interest in the quality of education and care. My daughter is in the Chinese immersion program and I'm blown away by how much she has learned. She's leagues ahead of her peers with a solid understanding of reading, writing, and speaking both English and Chinese. Her math is astounding for a 5 year old, having already delved into multiplication. My 3 year old son is happy and thriving as well. My favorite aspect of his experience has been that the teachers are supportive and diligent about potty training. It's so difficult to maintain consistency at home and at daycare/school, but at Dancing Moose they have tiny kid potties that are just like real potties, but small enough for them to use by themselves. He is also learning his alphabet and a variety of very valuable life skills. His teachers legitimately care about him and send me extra pictures throughout the day if he does anything especially cute. Aside from the educational aspects, my children are simply happy at Dancing Moose. It's amazing to me that the teachers can encourage a love of learning without wearing the kids out to the point that they hate school while still being at the level of knowledge they are. They eat chef made, fresh lunches every day as well as two well thought out and healthy snacks throughout the day. One of their favorites is the herb roasted chicken with veggies. At the West Valley location, there's even a garden for the kids to pick vegetables from to give to the chef to cook! The children learn how to manage big emotions and deal with them in a healthy and non-violent way, encouraging them to talk things out and recognize their feelings. I have noticed such an immense difference in the way kids from Dancing Moose and other children handle frustration. The knowledge my kids have gained, both academic and emotional, from Dancing Moose has made our home life so peaceful and happy. I wish I could keep them there forever! Highly recommend this school to everyone!"

"We have had both of our children at Dancing Moose. My oldest has been there for 3 1/2 years and my daughter for 2 1/2 years. They both LOVE the school and their teachers. Through both kids, we've had experience with the toddlers room (18 months - 2 yrs), the 2yr old class, the preschool classes (3-5 yrs), and the Kindergarten class. I have never once regretted our decision to enroll my kiddos here. The curriculum is outstanding (focusing not only on academics, but life skills and social skills - I am so impressed with my children being able to "talk out" their disagreements!). Thank you Dancing Moose for giving my kiddos a strong emotional support system and teaching them to LOVE learning!!"

"My daughter has been going here for about 2 years now and it has made a world of difference in her learning. The teachers and administration are absolutely amazing and they truly care about my daughter the way I do. She excels in all aspects of school especially the Chinese immersion program. I’m so happy Dancing Moose was recommended to me. I’m beyond pleased with their program."

"I was a full time teacher at the West Valley location for 5 years. The staff and children I taught were like family to me. After I had my daughter I found new employment but now that my daughter is older I enrolled her in Dancing Moose and am back as an aftercare teacher. From both the teacher side and the parent side, I love it. My daughter has learned so much and you can see the teachers truly care about her."
