Montessori Magpie

I'm constantly amazed at the growth I see in my child since starting at the Toddler and Twos Room at Montessori Magpie about 6 months ago. We began as nervous parents, transitioning our child to daycare after being cared for by a nanny. After my initial tour with Ana, the Director at Montessori Magpie, I was in awe and started to imagine the impact this transition would have on my child throughout their life. Hearing Ana describe her child development philosophies and how they incorporate aspects of Montessori and Reggio Emilia approaches, my nervousness transformed into excitement and optimism. As a child, I didn't attend this type school. Now after a few months, I can see the impact on my child’s development. I also see their excitement every morning as they get ready to learn and see their friends and teachers. We really feel how invested the teachers and staff are in our child's development.

We have been sending our son to Magpie for about a year and could not be happier. Our son is thriving and seems to be learning new skills on a daily basis! The teachers are all professionals who really care about the children and about early childhood education and it shows. Our son also has some allergies and they handle it very well, including having a special menu for lunch and snacks. Magpie is a special place and we are thrilled to have met Ana and all the wonderful teachers there.

Finding Montessori Magpie has been an absolute blessing to our family. After having a nanny for a couple of years, we wanted to introduce our child to a classroom style environment, and did extensive research in the neighborhood and toured several facilities. Montessori Magpie gives our child such focused care and attention, it's been incredible to experience how much she's learned and how much she has grown in a short amount of time. Ana, the owner, made us feel at ease from day one and each teacher has made an effort to get to know our kiddo while helping her develop and hit milestones quickly and consistently. One of many differentiators between MM and the other daycares we toured is the thoughtfulness and planning that goes into the children's curriculum, environment, and schedule. They are very intentional with this and I can tell our kiddo has really excelled here. Love that they are in the community.

We couldn’t be happier with the decision to send our daughter here. After having nanny for two years, It was a big decision for us to go the daycare route. After a few short months our daughter grew leaps and bounds. There’s only one location and the owner is present and actively onsite on a daily basis. This business is her sole focus as oppose to there being multiple locations and a watered down level of service. As a result, the teachers are also amazing. Right when you walk in you’ll also immediately feel a difference in the daycare by the skylights, plants, and overall setup which includes a science center. Grateful we found this place!
