An education of the mind, heart and spirit.
Islamic Montessori Academy brings together authentic Montessori principles and an Islamic foundation to nurture independent, compassionate and purposeful learners.
A prepared environment for meaningful growth.
Islamic Montessori Academy is founded on the belief that children thrive when their natural curiosity is respected, their independence is supported and their faith is meaningfully nurtured. Our classrooms are intended to cultivate focused work, joyful exploration, respectful community and a growing awareness of responsibility to Allah, oneself and others.
A welcome from Djamila Sahouli
Welcome to Islamic Montessori Academy. My experience in Montessori education has strengthened my belief that children learn best in environments built on respect, purpose and careful observation. At IMA, we pair the beauty of Montessori education with an Islamic framework that honours each child’s fitrah, character and capacity for growth.
Our aspiration is to cultivate children who are capable and curious, gentle and principled, confident in learning and connected to their Creator. We look forward to partnering with families in nurturing a generation of thoughtful learners and compassionate contributors.
To nurture confident, independent, and compassionate learners through an authentic Islamic Montessori education. We provide a carefully prepared environment where children develop a strong connection to their faith, a love of learning, and the skills needed to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally. Through bilingual learning in English and French, hands-on discovery, and character development rooted in Islamic values, we empower children to become responsible contributors to their communities and the world around them.
To cultivate a generation of confident Muslim leaders who are grounded in faith, guided by strong character, and inspired to make meaningful contributions to their communities and the wider world. We aspire to create a learning environment where every child discovers their unique potential, develops a lifelong love of learning, and grows with purpose, curiosity, and compassion.
Values that shape our days.
