Why Ayelet? What does Ayelet even mean?

When we envisioned our Montessori, even before we decided on the name, we knew we wanted a place where children can experience a 'TRUE MONTESSORI'. We wanted to give little children, who enter a new world, a place which will be their little home away from home. A place where they explore, learn, feel safe and more than anything a place which helps them shine. We wanted to choose a name that gives away just that and more.

Ayelet is a word we chose after going through a lot of names. It is a Hebrew word, which means ‘Brightest Morning Star’. 'Ayelet' defines our goal to create a safe, bright, rich, stimulating school environment for children, which will stay with them for life. Ayelet aims at fostering a community of children, educators and families, to support the optimum development of the child for life.

At Ayelet, we are super happy with what we have created. And we would love to reach out to as many young children (and parents) as possible.

We cater to children between 2 to 6 years of age, and are open for admission throughout the year. Kindly book an appointment for a visit at 9964495522 / 9611865394

Not Mere Words... But Experiences!

Montessori learning is unmatched because children are empowered to explore at their own pace, follow their natural curiosity, and build deep, lasting understanding through hands-on experiences in a thoughtfully prepared environment. Introducing language to young children at the right time and in the right way can truly shape their entire learning journey. In the Montessori approach, nothing is random — every lesson, material, and experience is carefully thought out to support the child’s natural development. And yes, we mean materials — not toys. Each one is a gift from Dr. Maria Montessori herself, designed after years of observing how children actually learn best. One such gem is the Large Moveable Alphabet . It’s a beautiful, hands-on material that does so much — from building phonemic awareness to strengthening early writing skills, spelling, and even confidence. Here's something we often say in Montessori: writing comes before reading . And the Large Moveable Alphabet...

🚨 Why authenticity in Montessori education is important

If you are a parent of a young child and exploring preschools in Bengaluru, you will notice many schools claiming to be Montessori. But here’s the truth: calling yourself a Montessori school and being an authentic Montessori environment are two very different things. Unfortunately, many preschools use the Montessori label as a marketing strategy. But a visit to the classroom often reveals something else: Substandard or imitation Montessori materials Locked shelves with limited child access Untrained teachers directing instead of guiding A lack of observation and individualized learning Traditional practices like punishments and rewards When a school is not Montessori, these practices may simply reflect its chosen method. But when a school claims to be Montessori while not following the philosophy, it becomes a serious concern. 🚨 Why authenticity in Montessori education is important because Montessori is more than materials or mixed-age classrooms—it is a philosophy of respect, in...

Developing independence in children

If your child goes to a Montessori school, you would know, one thing which sets them apart is their independent streak. One of the most common question parents at Ayelet ask “How to ensure we don’t kill that spirit of independence?” Some parents also complain that children are too independent and don’t understand when parents are in a hurry. The 2 nd situation only arises when parents are in a rush. Let’s deal with the 2 nd situation first, if you know you’re in a hurry tell your children so, that’ll help them prepare in advance. Young children don’t understand rush/hurrying. Fostering independence in children is something we work at Ayelet every single day, as parents there are a few things you can involve children as young as toddlers/preschoolers with: Let them set their own table for meals, once finished keep their own dish back in the kitchen. After play, children can clean up their rooms. Involv...
