Carmel Avenue, Albuquerque, New Mexico

Springstone on Carmel has done a fantastic job caring for children during a particularly challenging time (pandemic). My kids are happy, healthy and well cared for. Erica Hall and Modesta Shepard do a fantastic job communicating with families, especially in the uncertain times we have had the last 2 years. My girls enjoy going to school, all of the teachers know their names and say hello in the hallways. After spending some time with my oldest in a school that had profound safety issues and communication issues, Springstone certainly raises the bar. I am grateful to have them to take care of my kids!

I cannot day enough good things about this spring stone location. My older son was here from 2-4yr and then went somewhere else for kindergarten and now I have my 1yr old here. I drive all the way from central and sunset we’re I live and work just to take him somewhere we’re I know he will be taken care of. I have had a lot of problems with daycares in the past and this is the only place that has made me feel like my concerns are important. The director Mary is so kind and a great momma herself. If you want to bring your kids somewhere where you will feel comfortable going to work and leaving people you love this is your best bet in Albuquerque.

Springstone has been a safe and happy place for my son. Ms. Sabrina and Ms. Kirstyn are a good team. The communication has been great since they teamed up. I love the pictures sent through parent post so I can see parts of my son's day. We appreciate their efforts to help our son grow socially and in his academic skills. I would like to see more professionalism at the front desk as they rarely acknowledge parents coming in, though this depends on the staff member behind the desk. In my experience of two years as a customer, this an area of needed improvement for the center.

My daughter attends school at the Carmel location of Springstone, and I just want to say that her teachers Sabrina and Kirstin are awesome! You can see that the children are doing things by the awesome pictures included in the daily parent post. Thank you Springstone and Sabrina and Kirstin for making it a wonderful experience for my daughter on a daily basis.

Our two girls attend and we have been amazed at what they are learning. Our older daughter will enter Kindergarten in the Fall and I know she'll be ready.They are happy and well care for. The updates on Parent Post are fantastic. What a great communication tool. The office staff is always courteous and helpful.

My daughter attends this school, and her teacher is Ms. Sabrina. I am so happy with how this school welcomed us, and how they care for my daughter. Ms. Sabrina is nothing but nice and my daughter loves her. We came from Lil' Squirrels Preschool when they closed and seeing the education that she gets here compared to Lil' Squirrels Preschool blows my mind. They have many fun activities that other places don't offer and feel like my daughter is getting a better education and care then she was before.

This is a great school, my children thrived in this atmosphere and learned so much. I am confident that once entering kindergarten my child will be at the top of their class. Thank you so much Springstone!

My daughter attended Springstone for a year before she moved on to kindergarten and i would say the staff there was amazing! My daughter learned a lot there that prepared her for kindergarten and she is one of the top kids in her class which is amazing! I would absolutely recommend sending your children to Springstone.

Mary Wynn, Director, is phenomenal! She has the perfect leadership combination of being emotionally sensitive to each parent and their child, as well as a fierce desire to push each child to their highest potential. The teachers are inspiring and their love for the children shows everyday. Communication and daily updates with pictures allowed for us to stay connected while at work. The Carmel Springstone team sets the bar high for any childcare school!

SpringStone is an amazing school, the teachers and staff are very welcoming and make me feel comfortable when i drop off my child. I love the parent post that they have, keeps me informed on how my child did that day. I would recommend this school to anyone looking for quality care for their child.

Both our kids have been at Springstone since they were 6 weeks old. I would not trust my kids to anyone else but their staff. Not only our kids (and us) are treated with respect but also love.
Our four year old has been doing math for months now. Our three year old can name all of the geometric forms. They learn a lot, at their own pace and there's always great guides along the way.
All of the teachers our kids have had are awesome! We couldn't be happier with this daycare for our kids!

This school is amazing! We have had all four of our kids go and they absolutely love it! Teachers and staff are great and very helpful. Our older kids entered Kindergarten prepped and more then ready. We highly recommend this school.

SpringStone on Carmel has helped our son grow strong and confident. We are delighted with his vocabulary and thankful for his kindhearted teachers. We have been at this brilliant school for two years and look forward to a few more before 1st grade. We feel blessed to have found this well rounded school.

Absolutely amazing !!! We love Mary and all the teachers here. We have lived in many states and this is by far the best experience we have had so far.

Our son has attended Spring Stone since 11 months old, and this place is so awesome! He has been here over 2 years now. I have never felt uncomfortable leaving my child and there are days my son doesn't want to leave! They are so fun and welcoming! I would recommended Spring Stone Carmel 110%!!

My two-year-old has been in the care of SpringStone since shortly before turning one. He is my second child to attend SpringStone. When I knew I would need daycare/preschool for a new baby, there was no doubt in mind where I would place him. SpringStone provides loving care in a supportive environment. The facility is clean, the food is fresh and the staff is wonderful. I feel like the staff genuinely cares about my child. My now nine-year-old started kindergarten fully prepared academically and I credit SpringStone. He is now in the fourth grade and he enjoys school and learning thanks to the foundation from SpringStone. My two-year-old has already learned so much the past year and a half. Furthermore, there are still many of the same staff members that were there when my nine-year-old attended SpringStone five years ago. I feel this speaks very highly of the management. Thank you, SpringStone!

Every parent wants the best for their child… and SpringStone Montessori is the best. My oldest daughter, Aurelia first started attending SpringStone about three years ago and my youngest daughter, Layla, two years ago. Having moved to the neighborhood, I was referred to SpringStone by a friend. After a delightful tour of the facility, my wife and I decided to give SpringStone a try. We had bad luck in the past with another Albuquerque program, and needless to say I was a worried Daddy. The first day I dropped off Aurelia, the school administrator at the time, Desi, told me not to worry because “these are my children…they are not my children… but they are my children.” From that day on, I have never worried about my children’s safety or the every excellent quality that SpringStone offers.



I receive Parent Posts every day, I get to see pictures of my girls learning, playing, and socializing. They have numerous special events that I get to take part in and demonstrate my interest in my children’s education. Every teacher’s bio and credentials are posted outside the respective rooms. My kids are always excited to go to school and they have developed wonderful relationship with their teachers. I feel I can call anytime and receive and instant update on my girls. In short, I confidently state that SpringStone exemplifies the highest quality of care for their students, their health, their education, and their happiness.

Our son has been attending Springstone – Carmel for about a year now. Prior to Springstone, he had been in a mixture of in-home daycare and with a grandparent. I still can’t believe the change in him since he started – it’s incredible! I feel like our son already had an interest in learning, but Springstone fostered it and brought it out in a way that I didn’t think was possible in such a young child. He loves reading, helping us at home, doing things on his own, and he’s so polite. He’s really like a little man, and it’s all because of the environment he’s been put into at school. We’ve also gotten support with critical issues, such as pacifier addiction and potty training. I feel so lucky that we found Springstone and know it will be a part of our family for a long time. I can’t say enough positive things about the teachers we’ve had and the curriculum. We know that with the background he’s building now, he’s poised to soar in elementary school.



I’d particularly like to recognize the teams of Melissa/Salma and Isabel/Latilla – we LOVE them!

Our daughter loves Springstone! As soon as we arrive she takes off running with excitement so she can go play. The curriculum is definitely helping develop our daughter’s verbal, social, and mechanical skills, and I think the quality of education is very high. This is not just a daycare. The staff is very loving with our daughter and very flexible with us and our work schedules. The prepared meals make our life easier as we don’t have to pack her food every day and we know she is getting a nutritious meal.

As a grandparent, I recommend SpringStone Montessori School for the individual attention the staff gives to each child. SpringStone is very strong academically, concentrating in early childhood areas of study that will provide positive outcomes in public schools and higher education. Staff/child ratios are lower than licensing requirements that set. I am very happy with SpringStone for my grandchildren.
