We've shared so many special milestone and learning moments here, and I'll carry these teachers in my heart forever. The kids still light up, hug, and praise their teachers from the younger-year classes, they truly feel like family. When our kids have gone through tough moments, the Director and teachers have met them with patience, understanding, and thoughtful strategies. They work hand-in-hand with us so the redirection and support at home match what's happening in the classroom, which makes such a difference. It's a place where we know our kids are safe, loved, and learning every single day, and we couldn't be more grateful. They send pics throughout the day so I never feel too far away from them!

This facility was a first for me and my children, I cannot being to tell you the fear of letting my children be cared for by others except myself or family but I had to work. These woman are amazing! CONSTANTLY reassured me as much as I needed, always took the time to answer the phone or send more pictures if my son was having a hard time saying good bye to me in the morning. They have such a experienced and caring staff I trust them over my own family lol!! This place has put me at ease and that is just the most important feeling in the world to me, to make sure my kids are being properly cared for and loved when not with me. I can't begin to explain my gratitude to Downtown Kindercare I highly recommend Downtown kindercare if your looking for a loving, compassionate, nurturing and educated staff!!! These woman are heroes in my eyes ALSO, through the wonderful Kindercare app I am able to get photos of my children and their daily activities! Including what they eat for meals, nap time durations even potty breaks! This place is amazing! Staff is so welcoming my children run into their arms in the mornings! Can you imagine the comfort that gives me!

My kid went here last year and everyday I would have to call the office and the principal just to get the teachers to login. When grades came out they didn't give him grades and I am still trying to get the grades 6 months later. 4 out of 5 of his teachers left the school, the principal is gone too, and they can't find any record of his grades. They put him in the wrong grade but won't give him the grades for the courses he took. Now because it's all new people again we can't get his grades because employees can't access grades from before they worked there which includes the registrar. I wouldn't recommend this school to my worst enemy. We are still trying to find his grades and because it's a private school the board of education can't help.

Virtual school is going really well for us and I'm so thankful that I don't have to tutor our son through this like I am with our daughter. Ms. Amber, Mr. Brandon and the staff have clearly communicated with the parents through this making for a much easier transition. KUDOS to you all! A little background for those interested in this school: Our son has been a student at the Tempe location for AZ Aspire for the past three years. He has gone from being in really misunderstood, tough, and defiant place when arriving to flourishing both mentally and academically. I'm not saying it was easy on our family or the AZ Aspire staff, as we know it was NOT! I'm absolutely impressed with the teachers understanding and perseverance while caring for our son. We are so grateful to the AZ Aspire - Tempe campus :)

It is so nice to get together with like-minded parents that just want a place where their kids can play and explore. You yourself get a chance to be in the classroom and help out, play and see all of your kids' friends interact. Soon you will be getting your feet in the sand yard, going to parent meetings where the teachers will give you tips on how to calm your child during a meltdown, and you will talk to other parents and see that you're not alone. Some examples of community that I can think of during our time are the parent meetings, potluck events, a camping trip, and events at school where everyone is welcome for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. When we had our second child, and EECP knew we were finally home, we got a few gifts delivered for our new baby, but also a couple of big brother gifts and books from the school. When I'm at work and I get some photos sent to our parent group message board of what the kids are doing that day, it makes you wish you were at school that day instead of sitting behind a desk. Those are the times I know that we got lucky to find the EECP and other involved parents and teachers. One other thing I remembered that I enjoy is the stuff that our kiddo brings home. It is not just paintings that will soon be on your fridge or decorated shoe boxes, but also stories and music. Our 3-year-old would come home from school and teach me about Mardi Gras. He insisted on Mardi Gras songs being played in our home. He enjoyed dancing and marching and was explaining how parades worked, as if I had no idea what one was. It was so much fun to finally go to school and see all the kids parade around in fun costumes and carry around little decorated shoe boxes they made in class. This is just one of the events that we've loved as a family and now as a community.

We're going into our 8th year as a Villa family and I am so grateful for this wonderful school…read more Both my kids are thriving socially and performing at or above grade level, based on state testing. It's true that if you're looking for a very rigorous/college prep academic experience, this likely isn't the right fit for your family. Villa seems to focus more on fostering curiosity, creativity, independence, community, and leadership. And yet, proficiency in reading, writing and math somehow just seem to happen. Our kids' teachers have been so caring and exceptional at creating a safe and positive classroom community where learning happens naturally. The handful of times I've brought a concern or request to administration, they have been extremely receptive and taken action where needed. It's clear the staff and teachers really care about the kids and their families. No school is perfect, of course, but Villa is a great fit for our family and I'm certain they will be well-prepared for high school when the time comes, both socially and academically.

When I found out I was having a baby, one of my top priorities was finding suitable childcare. I…read moreknew I would be going back to work and wanted to have arrangements made well in advance. Who would've thought quality daycare comes with applications and long waitlists? 5 months before I was due, I started researching and scheduling tours. I had heard nothing but stellar things about Montessori. That combined with Villa's infant room, almost unheard of at these schools, was an immediate draw for me. I don't want to bore you with the details but after several postponements of our tour, unresponsiveness from staff members, and clear internal miscommunications, we never even got to see the facility. I had to go out of my way to try and establish a relationship. After several attempts, I wrote an email advising we would not be pursuing childcare at their facility. The director went above and beyond to contact me and asked if we could set up a phone call. I agreed but did not receive a call at the scheduled time -- icing on the cake. I experienced a huge lack of professionalism with Villa that I'm not willing to risk translating into something more serious in care of my LO.

The school has uniforms which we absolutely love as well as a high dress standard which I think helps the kids many of which come from rough backgrounds feel good about themselves. The pace program which is set up for kids that are exceptional learners is another reason why this school is the place for our children to attend. We have gotten to know the teachers and principal personally and we feel lucky that we have such gifted professional teachers working with our children. The atmosphere and ideals that are being taught along with the push for students to be responsible for their own progression as well as beginning from Kindergarten through 5 grade to encourage the kids to get ready and excited about going to college is a unique concept.
