Our Vision for Global Citizens
Founded by Sean Michael Diana
Cave Creek and Carefree are known for their rural luxury, wide-open desert landscapes, and families who value independence and quality. Whether you're on an equestrian estate near Black Mountain or in the master-planned community of Tatum Ranch, you expect the very best for your children. Founder Sean Michael Diana created Beibei Amigos 18 years ago with a mission to provide the kind of rigorous, globally-minded education that Cave Creek families deserve.
As the premier Montessori option south of Carefree Highway, we prepare children for Cave Creek's outstanding immersion elementary programs—Horseshoe Trails, Lone Mountain, and Desert Willow. By introducing Mandarin, Spanish, and English during the brain's most plastic years, we equip them with the cultural empathy and cognitive tools needed to thrive.
