In my opinion the aspect of the Waldorf School of Baltimore that makes it stand out is…read morepredictability. That, in particular, made my daughter excited about entering 3rd grade this fall. The other key component is planned interaction between students of all 8 grades. Going into 3rd grade, with the same teacher my daughter had in 1st and 2nd grade, she was anticipating the classes and activities that are attributed annually to the 3rd grade. Yes, she will have woodwork. Yes, her class will play traditionally 3rd-grade roles in the fall festival. Yes, her class will go on the weeklong farm trip to New York. In the curriculum, Waldorf wrote-in these three and dozens of other activities that are predictable. That predictability creates student anticipation, participation and success.

When I was a student there, my ADHD was treated like an issue and I was subsequently ignored often…read moreby the guidance counselor at the time, Ms. Flowers, while I was exiled from the grade each year by the students who were the best athletes. I won't name any but shockingly, the worst of my bullies was a POC and the school didn't do anything about the things he did to me (such as getting his friends to hold me down while he beat me with a stick) or the things he said (he, in front of the teacher, said that it was good my cat died(it was in Christmas) in ELEMENTARY SCHOOL) but never faced any consequences because I was labeled a troublemaker. I hope this doesn't get taken down but let this serve for anyone reading that this school is abelist.

Toddler University is truly an outstanding preschool! Dawn has created a beautiful, nurturing, and…read morehighly educational environment where children thrive. Her dedication to preparing children for kindergarten goes far beyond expectations. From the incredible curriculum and hands-on learning to the latest technology like smart boards, music programs, karate, yoga, and amazing teachers, every detail reflects the love and effort she pours into her program. You can see how much she genuinely cares about each child's growth, confidence, and success. If you are looking for a preschool that is professional, enriching, and absolutely top-notch, I highly recommend Toddler University. Your children will be loved, supported, and exceptionally prepared for their future!

I would like to share my experience with a business that we were welcomed with open arms and pushed…read moreaway like an outsider. We had our kids attend Toddler University Preschool, LLC for about 5 years. The director/owner is friendly and kind offering a preschool with love and passion like no other! Everything you would want to hear, even offering extra curricular activities like yoga, karate, animal experiences, zumbini, and a big firehouse graduation! My kids had the time of their lives. Creating friendships that last a lifetime. Friendships. Not just between the kids also between the parents. We have met a multitude of people in this business. Where you can message another parent and feel like you have known them your whole life. But something changed. Communication and my kid had meltdowns at drop off, but everything was "fine" when I ask how my child was during the day. But clearly my child did not think so. Being almost the oldest family attending and loyalty means nothing to a small business like this. Receiving a 30 day notice with no explanation (contract says no explanation can be given) other than "personal reasons" came to a shock. I was told to keep personal life and business separate and not let them mix. Payments we made rearly, participated school events, accepting of any changes to policies. There were no issues there. Once I received the 30 day notification (by text), at drop off/pick up I wasn't greeted by the owner anymore. I was greeted by the assistant teachers. I had questions and needed clarification, but I was told not to bring this topic up to her or the assistants (needed to relay messages and was not physically present) and not to reach out to other families because it wasn't "my place." As a mother it is my right to know what is happening with my child in someone else's care and why is it only happening to my child. When you think you know somebody better than your family, it's like getting stabbed in the back with a dagger. It hurts, but time will pass and will heal. After experiencing this. I would highly not recommend Toddler University Preschool, LLC. I don't want anyone experiencing rejection from a caregiver to your child with no explanation of any sorts, regardless of loyalty.

This is a strong school academically, and your kid(s) will be challenged no matter what grade. We have been here for over four years and have no thoughts or concerns about changing schools. There is a sense of pride in the teachers and it's fascinating to see where your kid is in the beginning of the year, and how far they have come at the end. It is a true testament to the dedication and hard work of the teachers.

Both of our kids settled in well, were cared for, challenged, and more. They are play-based as a school, especially for the younger ages, and spend a lot of time doing play, music, crafts, etc. And our son in PreK made excellent progress on "academic" curriculum as well -- Spanish, sight words, writing, math, etc. In addition, the teachers and admins make investments in their character development -- learning to be empathetic, kind to others, etc. They've also been very easy-going in terms of scheduling the care we need for the kids. They are willing to work with part-time schedules, and you can take weeks "off" from preschool/childcare during the Summer for vacations without having to pay for the spot. We've been very pleased and would recommend this preschool to other parents without hesitation.

They have a booth at the Charles Village festival every year, with games and prizes, offer after-school and summer classes for kids, a computer lab, a library, and on and on. The sign-ups for childrens' classes fill up immediately, and tickets to most of their events sell out. That should tell you that if you're not involved, you're missing out. Most of what they offer is free - if you live nearby, take advantage.
