Doctor Maria Montessori said that children acquire knowledge through experience in the environment. This is one of the leading principles that guide the design of our Tuxedo Park campus, where the learning environment is designed to be open and accessible to all students.
Monday to Friday:
7:00 am to 5:30 pm
Located on the main floor of Trail 19, Blüm Childcare Academy in Tuxedo Park brings modern and intentional early learning to Calgary’s inner city. In our classrooms, everything has a purpose and a place, and this practice of clutter-free living is taught to all students.
Our tight-knit campus communities are ignited to engage our students to develop a clear sense of values and a social conscience on their path to becoming responsible global citizens. Blüm is proud to be hyper-local and encourages our students to be involved with helping others both in and outside of their classrooms. These are a few of our key community partners:
The Tuxedo Park Community Association is a volunteer-led organization dedicated to enhancing our neighborhood and one which Blüm is proud to collaborate with through different partnerships that engage our students and Educators.

This facility provides subsidized housing for Albertans who have retired and is located a few short blocks from the Tuxedo Park campus. We are delighted to have our students participate in different activations with Sharon Manor residents throughout the year.
Made by Momma is a grassroots non-profit organization and registered Canadian charity located in Calgary’s NW. They help families facing situations of adversity and crisis by providing healthy prepared meals, supportive in-home visits, and many other services. Through scheduled goods drives, Blüm is proud to provide vital baby essentials and children’s items for families accessing Made by Momma.
Blüm offers a beautiful and thoughtful blend of Alberta’s Early Learning and Care Framework, a provincially recognized curriculum, with the internationally renowned Montessori method. This means no screens, only carefully curated educational toys for child-centric early learning and education.
“Just wanted to say thank you to everyone and say how happy we are to have the kids at Blüm. I really didn’t think it was possible to like any childcare option prior to Blüm. We stressed about delaying kindergarten a year, that our would be bored. He adores Blüm and is constantly learning. I love hearing about his day and all the things he learning today. He really does put things together in ways that constantly blow my mind.”
