Why Choose Black Forest Montessori for the Best Child Care in Colorado Springs?

Every child who joins us gets an authentic Montessori education in a classroom where the adults know them well: their name, their favorite work, and the exact moment they're ready for something new.
These early years shape so much of what comes next, and our job is to prepare an environment that lets your child explore at their own pace.
Children here build their independence in a way that feels safe, steady, and suited to who they are. They choose their own work, repeat it until it clicks, and get thoughtful support whenever they need it.
Black Forest Montessori has served Colorado Springs families since 2021 as a state-licensed, fully insured program for children ages 2 to 5 Colorado license #1757052.
Our classroom is led by Mrs. Acsa, a Montessori-certified teacher with more than twenty years of early childhood experience, and every material on our shelves is chosen to support a specific stage of your child's growth. Families often tell us they feel the difference the moment they walk in: calm, purposeful, and moving at each child's own pace.

About Our Colorado Springs Location

Our school sits in the Black Forest area at 8139 Glory Drive, an easy drive for families in Briargate, Rockrimmon, Stetson Hills, and Northeast Colorado Springs.
Since opening in August 2021, we've welcomed children ages 2 to 5 years old into a calm, carefully prepared Montessori classroom. Our team keeps training and refining our practice against authentic Montessori standards, and that same commitment will carry into every classroom we open as we grow.
We are here to help your child build the independence, self-confidence, and foundational skills that carry them into kindergarten and beyond with genuine readiness.
Some of what makes our program distinct:


Curated Environment
A prepared environment with low shelving, natural materials, and child-sized furniture, so children can reach, choose, and put away their own work.

Spanish Immersion
Daily Spanish immersion led by a fluent speaker, as part of songs, conversation, and everyday classroom routines.

Montessori-Certified
A curriculum led exclusively by a Montessori-certified guide, built around each child's documented readiness rather than a fixed lesson plan or franchise packet.

Practical Life Days
Practical life days are woven into the calendar, including classroom cleaning and organizing, food preparation, and extended outdoor exploration during our Summer Care program.

Year-round School
Year-round school with no summer break, so your child's routine stays steady all twelve months.

Choosing the right place for your child to learn and grow is not a simple decision.
We have put together a straightforward guide covering exactly what to look for in a Montessori program, so you can compare schools with confidence.

What We Believe

Our classroom is led by a Montessori-certified teacher who stays current with early childhood research and Montessori best practices, and our team trains together so every child receives the same consistent, thoughtful care.
We are equally committed to partnering with parents. Raising an independent, confident child is not something a classroom does alone, and we treat that partnership as central to how we operate, not an afterthought.
Our curriculum centers on independence, respect, and grace and courtesy, alongside the academic foundations of language, mathematics, and cultural studies. Through daily work with Montessori materials and friendships with classmates of different ages, your child learns and grows at their own pace.
