IF YOU LOVE YOUR CHILD, I strongly advise against enrolling them in this school. Initially, the curriculum seemed promising, and it appeared to offer a Montessori education. However, once I got to know Teresa and her teachers, it became evident that the children here were denied the freedom to be children. My daughter had just finished her class and was naturally a little active. Shouldn't she be allowed to move around a bit? It's essential to remember that they are kids. Can't we understand that? When my daughter would come to greet me with excitement, running and wanting to hug me, it was met with disapproval and scolding. This restrictive environment left no room for the natural exuberance and innocence of childhood. Things only got worse from there. My daughter became consistently fearful and reluctant to attend DAYCARE. I couldn't help but wonder why. One particular teacher, Marcela, displayed rudeness and appeared perpetually unhappy and miserable in her job. Her mood was consistently sour, even during morning drop-offs when I asked her a simple question about where to leave my daughter's backpack. With minimal courtesy, she replied, "There, on the floor." It was already 7:00 AM, and surely a little effort to show empathy and help my daughter feel at ease shouldn't be too much to ask. If she treated me that way in front of my daughter, I dreaded to think how she behaved when parents weren't around. This attitude is unacceptable for a pre-school teacher, let alone in a Montessori setting. Where did she receive her certification? It must have been a subpar program. When I inquired about the children's whereabouts, she simply ignored me and walked straight into the classroom. Such disrespectful and rude behavior, witnessed by at least seven other children, sends a terrible message about how to treat others. It was a truly horrible experience, and it shed light on why my child was always so frightened during that time of the day. She even mentioned one day that a teacher HAD FORCEFULLY GRABBED HER HAND AND SOLDED HER. These are significant red flags that parents should never ignore. Please, believe your children when they confide in you. I trusted my daughter, and now she is in a safe and nurturing environment where she is happy and treated with respect as a human being. As I mentioned earlier, my daughter faced difficult times, especially in daycare. One day, when she was struggling like any other child or person does (after all, they are individuals, not robots or dolls), they called me and demanded I pick her up immediately. Did they even consider that I might have work commitments? This lazy approach to problem-solving is unacceptable. It is your responsibility, as teachers, to handle such situations. You studied for this and should be prepared to manage and understand their emotions while providing support. I later attended to the meeting with my child and teh teachers, which felt more like a courtroom trial for a three-year-old. The ironic part was that all of this occurred just one day after I had informed them that my daughter had expressed discomfort about someone forcefully holding her hand. The timing seemed suspicious and unusual. During the meeting, they claimed that my daughter was having a hard time and had even hit one of the teachers. I would certainly correct her behavior if she did something wrong and explain that hitting is not acceptable. However, if someone had touched my child inappropriately and she reacted defensively, I cannot fault her. It struck me as an attempt. It appears evident that there was an effort to prevent my daughter from revealing further details about what was truly happening in the daycare facility. Thankfully, I made the decision to remove my daughter from that school. As a mother, I couldn't bear to leave my child in such a distressing situation. It became apparent that the staff were not fulfilling their responsibilities to support and aid the children; instead, their primary concern seemed to be financial gain. Our children deserve better than this.

Fantastic preschool/daycare. Teachers are very engaged. Curriculum is great. They keep children of different ages 3-5 in a single class to make the elder ones to show leadership and making it easier for younger kids which is unique. Very happy overall.

My daughter spent an entire day like this. She is 3, and speaks well for a 3 year old. She said the teachers are allowing students to hurt her. The staff claims they dont have enough teachers to watch the kids, while they raised the tuition by $400. The staff try to put the blame on the child by saying hes from North Africa, not sure what his race had to do with anything, maybe they were trying to bait us. Pathetic School
