Helping Hands Montessori Services & Preschool

Helping Hands Montessori School is such a gem, and my only regret is that I didn't find it sooner for our daughter! She loves school and wants to go even on the weekends! The founder, Talitha Green, and the teachers TRULY care about each student and their progress inside and outside of the classroom. This is also true for the dedication and commitment they show to the parents. They want us to succeed in teaching, nurturing, and learning from our little ones. They are always willing to listen to concerns, field questions, and assist in any way possible. Plus, they actually know what they are talking about! I would not hesitate to recommend Helping Hands to anyone. The community is so nice, welcoming, and positive, and we are going to miss it!

If you are looking for a safe and nurturing environment where your little one can spread her/his wings, Helping Hands Montessori School (HHMS) might just be the right place for your family. We noticed a shift in our daughter's behavior from the very first day she came back from school. That afternoon I saw her setting her place at the table, working on putting her shoes on, singing songs, and just talking about school all day. She has now developed meaningful friendships, and has become much more engaged in learning/speaking/reading/helping out around the house with a sense of autonomy and pride in her work. Miss Talitha (the owner), and the teachers at HHMS are deeply committed to the children's development as individuals, and as members of a social family. It's palpable how committed HHMS is at truly seeing, honoring, and guiding each one of their students. Apart from being a sweet learning environment for my daughter, HHMS has been a huge source of information, support, and community for our parenting journey as well. I have nothing but gratitude and praise towards HHMS.

Awesome. We looked at a dozen Montessori schools in the Austin Area. This was, by far, our favorite. The staff is incredible. Our son is flourishing in the incredible environment they have created. The owners and staff give each and every parent their special attention. The community of parents is warm and kind. The entire experience has been far beyond our expectations. Although it wasn't a factor that we were considering, the rates are far below other Montessori schools.

Considering starting your "baby" in school for the first time leaves you full of emotions. Deciding which school to start them in is a whole other thing. I can tell you this school is a gem. Talitha, Ms Janie and Ms Cassandra have been so supportive, understanding and welcoming throughout this process. They follow Maria Montessori's philosophies; the classroom is prepared and intentional. The community of parents is like-minded. We can't wait to watch our little one grow under their respectful care. There is no doubt in our mind that we made the right decision. *****

We couldn't be more pleased with Helping Hands Montessori. I continue to be impressed with Talitha's (owner) knowledge of child development, and the level of care my daughter receives. Time and again, Talitha has shown that she truly has the child's best interest at heart. Her staff is amazing and my daughter adores them all. It's a very sweet, caring school.

Helping Hands Montessori is like a second home for us. The teachers there know my son so well and have always been one step ahead of his progress and transitions. Talitha is an expert in Montessori school methods, a yoga teacher and a wonderful human being. She is always available for questions and concerns and goes out of her way to help her students and families. I could not imagine sending my son anywhere else in Austin for his first couple years of education and growth.

When my son was reaching close to the age of 18 months I was pondering on which direction to take. I knew in my heart that I wanted to give him the absolute BEST start at life and a solid foundation in education in the most loving, nurturing, and trusting environment possible. I am over the moon about our decision to enroll my son into HHMS over the past two years for countless reasons. The realness, enthusiasm, and love we receive daily upon drop-off is only a sliver of what makes this school magical. I can relax knowing that my son is in the best of hands, following his own readiness, and that we are all supported in ways unimaginable. This small south Austin based Montessori gem holds a place in my heart for eternity and I can not recommend it enough. I am heart broken that we can't stay at this school forever, however the foundation is in place and the support and resources including Talitha Green's workshop and in-home services will be utilized for years to come. Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to be a part of such a special community where we all thrive and support one another. It was said perfectly by a parent in one of Talitha's workshops, "Channel your inner Talitha!" And that pretty much sums it up.
