I don't leave many reviews, but this is one I was excited to write…read more Our family has been at LSP since 2024, and trusting someone else with your children every day is no small thing. From day one, this team has made us feel confident that our girls are cared for! When I went back to work and dropped off my 4-month-old for the first time, Ms. Irene gave me so much peace of mind. She treated our daughter with such care, and that feeling continued with Ms. Mairo and Ms. Anna, who have been part of her journey as she's moved up. Watching our now-confident toddler walk happily into her classroom each morning is a testament to the environment they've created for her. Our oldest has grown tremendously during her time here. Ms. Angel, Ms. Layla, and now Ms. Kris have helped her build confidence, independence, and a love of learning. As she gets ready for Pre-K, I know the foundation they've helped build will stay with her long after she leaves. The leadership team deserves recognition too. Ms. Autumn, Ms. Raquel, and Ms. Alana do an incredible job communicating with families and creating a center that feels welcoming, organized, and genuinely caring. And then there are all the little things that make a difference--the warm greetings, the fun activities, the familiar faces throughout the building, and even Ms. Robin in the kitchen, who somehow became one of my daughter's favorite people. Ms. Katie has also been a constant source of love and encouragement for both of our girls over the years. As two full-time working parents, we appreciate the dependable hours and support this center provides. But more than anything, we're grateful for the people. Daycare is hard work, and parents are trusting you with the most important people in their lives. This team never takes that responsibility lightly. Our girls feel special here. They're excited to go every morning. They come home happy with stories and excited to tell us about their day. I wish I could list every teacher and staff member who has impacted our family, because it truly takes a village. We are incredibly grateful to be part of this one.

Bluebonnet Montessori is a wonderful school and community of teachers / parents. We've had a…read morestudent there from the age of 2.5 to 7 and are very satisfied with the academic abilities (especially in math and reading,) love of learning, ability to be independent, and completion of large projects. The school aligns with my views on treating children as individuals that can meet personal challenges. If the child is advancing they make the work more challenging rather than treating all the kids as the same and just expecting one level of progress from the entire group. Small class sizes and independent study allow kids to work in the directions that they are motivated for while the overall curriculum has an annual pattern to keep them well rounded and to bring newer kids up to speed while serving to refresh and reinforce the veteran kids. During the same class, kids at different ages and abilities become leaders that help each other. The younger ones are motivated to do the work the older ones can do and the older ones are helping the younger ones which reinforces the subject for themselves. Of note are the foreign language programs, music, art and various after school classes like yoga. There are several annual gatherings where the kids sing, play, and do small performances for the group of parents and siblings. It's a very special school and community to be part of. There is a healthy balance of learning, work, and socialization that lets kids be confident and smart. Would recommend it to anyone with children who are able to concentrate on tasks themselves. Those kids really take off at Bluebonnet because the pace of learning is largely self directed with teachers providing guidance, encouragement, and motivation.

I wanted to love Magnolia. We carefully chose this program because it presented itself as a place…read morethat understood autistic children and used modern, supportive, ABA-informed practices. Unfortunately, our experience did not match those expectations. During a trial day, a young autistic child became upset after a developmentally typical frustration in a new environment. Instead of observing the calm support, co-regulation, and individualized approach we expected from a program with this stated level of expertise, we experienced a response that felt escalating rather than supportive. There were also concerns with the emotional regulation of the leading staff member, and online records that reinforced concerns related to emotional regulation and safety. The biggest concern was the disconnect between the program's stated philosophy and what we observed in practice. A moment that could have been handled as an opportunity for connection, regulation, and teaching instead left us questioning whether the environment was truly equipped to support autistic children in the way it represents, or any child. Ultimately I did not feel comfortable trusting my daughter to Magnolia. I am grateful we had the opportunity to see this before the school year began, but it was disappointing to have to reconsider so close to the start of school after believing we had found the right fit. Every child deserves a program whose practices match its promises.

Ms Gina has been so on top of things and informative about my little guy's meals. Watching my little guy on the camera, I can see that all the teachers are very interactive with the babies. Myraneh is also such a sweet teacher and makes my little guy feel so loved. I love one day when I was leaving daycare and the assistant director Candace was telling me about how my little Nico and another girl in class have laughing wars and it melted my heart! Lastly, I wanted to mention that Autumn has been so personable and delightful. She is a very sweet director and runs a great program and you can tell based on how many kids attend this daycare! She runs a well-oiled machine and I highly suggest getting into this daycare, especially if you have the chance with a spot!

On the front end, Autumn and Jessica are super friendly, responsive, and efficient as can be. As long as we are here, this is her school!!!

It is right there and with the newly added kiddo curbside drop off service - being able to go from home and back under 10 minutes is a big reason to choose this school! The reason we stopped sending our kids is due to constant staffing and management changes. Both our kids' classes took turns in the lead teacher unexpectedly leaving or resigning, reasons purposefully hidden due to "privacy concerns". It got to a point where we stopped learning the new teachers' names because we knew we wouldn't see them in a week! With our oldest potty training, this proved to be quite a chore. Bottom line, if you send your kids here, expect little to no interaction about how the kids are doing. The school proudly touts their lackadaisical child care approach as the 'Reggio Emilia' way.

The owner Raul and director Malorie are wonderfully awesome and as accommodating as they could possibly be.

They communicate with parents via the Tadpole app with daily reports, announcements, and pictures. I have total peace in mind when I drop my kids off every weekday. I know that they both love their school and are very comfortable with all their teachers.

I could not praise Goddard enough, in particular this location by the BSW hospital more. Raul, the owner and Malorie have been so flexible and reasonable.

They employ their teachers with high expectations and are completely transparent which is reassuring to parents leaving children in their care. We will miss them as our time at daycare is almost up!

I didn't think my high energy child with separation anxiety was going to fit in with the other children who were doing their work with such peace and grace, and it has been truly amazing to watch her transform and develop a sense of community and belonging at her school. Annie has a passion for children and meeting the needs of the child on multiple levels not just academically. Not only is my daughter learning her letters, sounds and numbers; more importantly she is learning, patience, concentration, care for her community and environment, independence and more!

Her last week was full of tears about leaving her beloved school to move on to elementary. We feel she received a incredibly strong academic foundation from MSE, while also learning a love of nature, a sense of responsibility and mindfulness for others, and a feeling of joy in learning. The classroom is bright and peaceful, and the Montessori materials were engaging and challenging. The teachers at MSE are highly experienced Montessorians who care deeply about the children at the school. The teachers also hold parent education meetings, parent conferences, and an annual open house where the children show the parents the classroom materials. Parent observations during the school day are welcome; we did many over the years. The teachers were always open to our questions and requests to discuss issues relating to our child. We also enjoyed the many opportunities to interact with other parents at the school picnics, weekly park playdates, and monthly Mom's Night Out. We felt very lucky to be a part of the MSE community.
