Montessori Minds

The staff and school are wonderful. They helped my then 3 year old son feel welcomed and had us at ease with his learning since he is very knowledgeable in most subjects. The detail in the activities were nice too and helped keep the kids engaged. I would have liked daily or weekly updates of what the kids do but I think it was due to privacy. Aside from that, I think it is a great stepping stone for growing little ones.

We have been really happy with our experience at Montessori Minds so far. I was specifically looking for a Montessori school for my child as we had (lightly) started with this same approach at home. I visited every single school that was within a 30min drive from us, so I will first start with the differences I noticed: - When you enter Montessori minds, there is a sense of peace that you get. The room is not extremely busy. Your eyes can find a focus point and then slowly travel from shelf to shelf, activity to activity, absorb them and then start wondering how kids would approach them. In comparison, with other "Montessori" schools, they have every single material on Earth out, extremely busy sight and I didn't even know what to look at first. - The space is extremely well kept, clean and of a great size for the students it supports. The layout of it is a natural flow. - The staff ratio plus the number of staff is one that would allow for the right balance of attention (whenever I did find a "low" ratio, there was only 1 staff in the room. I find that having at least 2 people is essential as we don't all feel great 100% of the time and that can impact the job that is done) - The yard at the back is a great outdoor space. You can see how the students were kept in mind. My child was with us during the tour and just ran towards it in excitement. There is no need to go outside, cross streets, parking lots, etc to get to it which provides a great sense of security. - Observe the way that you will be spoken to as this is how the children will be spoken to as well. The pace is calm, the language is respectful and the vocabulary is one that I would be happy for my child to repeat. With regards to the experience after we joined: We came from a chain school to this school. Of course you don't get some of the fancy apps and automation that the large school would have. But what I got instead was staff that was deeply connected and aware of my child. My child's reports went from "X is a cute little boy" (previous school) to comments that very well described my child's personality, interests, and current development stage. Instead of a generic "X had a great day", if I had a question on their day, there was never a time where they didn't know what exactly my child did/was involved with. One thing that stuck to me during orientation was that they said: "We are with your child all day, daily. We will be able to know if they are off and we will let you know." And every time they let me know, they were right on + noticed things before we even could. I think that this contributes to how little he got sick from "daycare germs" as I imagine they do this for all the kids. We never went trough the phase where they are out most weeks of the month because there is a new germ that everybody is catching. It was also noticeable to me how they strive to create a community among children and parents. There were school such as Halloween, Mother's Day and Father's Day that allowed us to connect. We were able to later have playdates and just overall feel part of a little community. You will really be happy that you found this gem of a school!

Montessori Minds was absolutely the perfect place for my son. He started when he was 18 months and stayed until 3 and a half years. The ONLY reason we didn’t continue is because we had to move! The teachers are loving, caring and compassionate with all of the students. My son truly enjoyed going to school every single day. He learned so much, always coming home with new vocabulary, new songs, new stories and became very independent. I HIGHLY recommend Montessori Minds to anyone who enjoys and is looking for the concept of a Montessori school model! Thank you for taking care of my little one with So MUCH LOVE.

Montessori Minds has been the best Day care/ school for my son. They are great. Amazing ladies teaching, taking care and forming the kids that go there. My son just graduated from Pre-K4 and he will definitely miss them. 150% recommend it.

Montessori Minds is a wonderful place for all children. Both my boys attended this school and it’s sad to say that they’ll no longer be attend due to us moving further away. They have both progressed TREMENDOUSLY with the help of the teachers here and the resources provided. Montessori Minds has provided my boys with lifetime friends and the skills/knowledge to prepare them for Kindergarten and forward. To all the teachers, thank you for all your help with our boys! We’ve seen them grow to be more independent, as well as seeing their social skills improve since first joining. Lastly, parenting is never easy and we appreciate all the guidance and knowledge you’ve given us since our oldest (now 7 -going on 17) was 1 and a half. You all will truly be missed and will forever hold a special place in our hearts!

Montessori Minds has been such a great preschool for my daughter. We are so glad and happy we came across the school and Mrs. Yadira. My daughter loves going to school and had learned alot. All the teachers are really kind and caring. They have worked with her and us to potty train, eat independently, and have great confidence.

The best decision I made was sending my son and daughter to Montessori Minds. All of the staff are loving and caring and will treat your kids like their own. The school is spacious, sanitary and safe, they keep me updated with everything pertaining to my kids. My kids have learned a lot and enjoyed all the fun learning activities and events. Can’t thank them enough.

I loved this daycare, teachers are great and is very clean. Our experience has been extremely positive and believe their method of self directed learning is very effective. They promote independence on the kids. I will recommend this daycare to any family that's looking for a child centered learning. They speak both Spanish and English.

We wish we had more time with the amazing staff at Montessori minds. Our daughter absolutely loved her time there, the experiences, the learning, the sharing with different group aged kids- the bilengual for us was a must as she was only Spanish spoken; and seeing her little friends that only was English learning Spanish songs numbers, colors was amazing. Totally recommended, it wasn’t just a school it was a safe place she felt at home with all the love from the wonderful group of women that attend and teach this kids. Ms. Angie was by far her favorite, Ms. Yadira was like the mom to her at school, Ms. Lorena she always had stories , Ms. lily and Ms. Samantha every single one of them has left a wonderful memory in her heart. She sure will miss you guys as she starts her new journey as a kindergarten big girl!

I highly recommend Montessori Minds. Originally we had our son attending a daycare and he experienced so much anxiety that he had what looked like a seizure. After some medical tests and time home we got him into Montessori minds with Ms. Yadira and the other kind, nurturing teachers. Altogether they helped our funny, silly guy out of his anxious shell and into true confidence. He began to take pride in the independence he learned there and he grew to trust his teachers like the family they were for him. They watched a chicken hatch from and egg, saw caterpillars turn into butterflies, also the history lessons were very meaningful to my son, who continues to speak reverently about Martin Luther King and Rosa Parks. The big outdoor play space and the wisdom and confidence that the teachers possessed made such a difference. I could go on and on. He will be going to kindergarten next year and we are just so thankful for the gift of such a wonderful school experience at Montessori Minds to be in his memory.
