    I am writing this review as a paying parent who experienced short-term financial difficulty and…read moreattempted to resolve it responsibly and transparently. After the holidays, I was the one who initiated every conversation regarding my balance and reconciliation. I contacted administration proactively, did not avoid payment, and did not disappear. A payment arrangement was discussed and agreed upon in person. Administration provided a specific date and time for when funds needed to be available. I ensured the funds were available as instructed. No payment was processed. When I attempted to follow up, the administrator was not available until the following week and did not reach out. I again had to initiate communication. Subsequently, Ms. Emily (administration) stated that charges had been "attempted," despite: * no such transactions appearing on my bank statements, * no notice ever being provided to me at the time, and * being quoted different and higher balances than what had been agreed upon, including attempted charges significantly above our arrangement. When I followed up in writing with a factual and professional email documenting these discrepancies, my partner contacted the center for clarification. During that call, Ms. Gigi (owner) was hostile and condescending in tone rather than collaborative or solution-oriented. I then received a voicemail from Ms. Gigi stating: "I am not providing you with free childcare. You get more with honey than vinegar." This was in response to an email that was respectful, direct, and documentation-based. During the pickup that followed, my child had been woken from rest and returned with a heavily soiled diaper, which was especially concerning. To be clear: no classroom staff member treated me inappropriately, and I appreciate the care they provided my child. My concerns are limited to administrative handling by Ms. Gigi and Ms. Emily. It is also important for parents to know that administration and ownership are family-related, which in my experience resulted in errors not being acknowledged and accountability not being taken when discrepancies were raised. I am sharing this for one reason: if you ever experience a payment issue--even temporarily--do not expect consistent communication, follow-through, or professional reconciliation here, even when you initiate contact in good faith. Families deserve: * clear and accurate billing * timely notice of any payment issues * and respectful treatment during difficult seasons That standard was not met in my case. This review is written so other parents can make fully informed decisions as paying customers.

    We absolutely LOVE this Montessori! Our family has been with KSMS for about 6 years now (with a few…read moreyears off in between) and it has always been an amazing little school. When our older 2 children (now ages 10 and 9) attended this school, I knew that one day our younger children would have to attend as well. Now, our 2 year old is enrolled and he LOVES it just as much as his older siblings did and even had one of their old teachers. The staff is kind and patient and you get that "welcome to our family" feel when you enter. We are currently in the process of having to search for a new Montessori, as we are planning a move down the the Pearland/Friendswood area next Summer to be closer our family and for work. The search for another Montessori has been very heartbreaking thus far, as the handful of schools that we have looked at don't give us that "feeling" we got when we found KSMS. Immediately we knew that KSMS was one of the good ones and we haven't found one that is comparable to it down in that area yet. As crazy as it may seem to some, we have seriously considered making the 1hr commute up/down to Spring from Pearland so that our son can continue attending KSMS and eventually for his younger sibling when the day comes. That's how good of a school KSMS is and that's how high of a standard they have set for us to compare other schools to. My husband and I have worked with children ourselves for many years, and you can tell when someone genuinely likes and understands kids; they understand kids and they LOVE them!

    All around the best environment for a child to blossom. They love your family the day you step in…read more We are having to leave the school because of a move and I'm crying (last day today) I could not have asked for better teachers. My son started first and just grew so confident and learned so many things from this school. My daughter started after and she is getting this blossoming personality and just lights up when she sees her teachers. The owners and front office staff are the best humans and are willing to work with you. The best communication. This will always be the "the one that got away". Wish I could bring this school with me in my move. I want thank everyone at Klein-Spring Montessori for every single minute. You have been one family to me and we will miss you.

    A Hardest Decision Made with Love: My Adoption Journey with AIM…read more In 1998, I made one of the hardest and most emotional decisions of my entire life--placing my son up for adoption. At the time, I was young, overwhelmed, and facing a situation that felt far bigger than I could handle on my own. The choice did not come easily. It came with countless nights of tears, questions, and soul-searching. But despite the deep sadness and heartache, I knew that the decision had to be made out of love--for the life and future of the child I brought into the world. I didn't walk this journey alone. From the very beginning, the team at AIM (Adoptions in Motion) was there to support me. They offered more than just professional guidance; they gave me compassion, empathy, and a sense of security that I never expected. The women and staff at AIM never judged me for my decision or my circumstances. Instead, they embraced me with kindness and understanding, making me feel like I mattered--and that my emotions were valid. One of the most powerful aspects of working with AIM was how they focused not just on the adoptive family or the baby, but on me as the birth mother. I was never treated like someone who was simply giving something away. They made sure I knew that what I was doing was brave, selfless, and centered in love. I remember sitting in their office, my heart heavy, and a staff member held my hand and told me, "You're not alone. We are with you through every step." And they truly were. Throughout the process, AIM ensured I was physically and emotionally cared for. They checked in on me regularly, helped me navigate medical appointments, and created a safe space for me to process my feelings. They explained every step thoroughly, allowed me to ask as many questions as I needed, and never pushed me to make a decision. Their goal was to empower me to make the best choice for myself and my child--with support, not pressure. Choosing adoption didn't mean I didn't love my son. It meant I loved him enough to want more for him than I could provide at that time in my life. AIM understood that, and they honored it. They helped connect me with a family who was ready, loving, and able to give him everything I hoped he would have--a stable home, a bright future, and unconditional love. Even then, they didn't disappear. They continued to check in and offer counseling and emotional support, reminding me that my story wasn't over just because I had placed my son into another family's arms. To this day, I carry both the pain and the peace of that decision. Pain because I let go of someone I loved more than words can express. Peace because I know he was placed in a safe, loving home where he could thrive. And gratitude--deep gratitude--for AIM, who walked beside me during the darkest time of my life and never let me feel alone. Looking back, I realize that the strength I found in myself was made possible by the strength others shared with me. AIM didn't just help me through an adoption--they helped me see my worth, my courage, and the depth of my love as a mother. For that, I will be forever thankful.

I was living on welfare and had no clue what I was going to do! Then my neighbor told me about AIM Adoptions and it changed my life forever! They aren't there "just to take your baby" and be done with you! Which is such a common misconception!They become your family! They took care of me until I had my baby because I was confined to bed and couldn't work! As I said, it was 32 years ago and I truly feel as if the employees are family even the ones that have since retired. Because they are not just employees - this is not just a job it is a calling! And now God has brought my life full circle and I get to be a part of the team! I was hired in February of this year. I get to be there and give encouragement to the birth mothers having gone through the experience and I get to give the adoptive parents a first hand view of what the birth mother goes through. There is even support for me 32 years later with group counseling. Not only do I feel the agency employees are family, I have a family of birth mothers that know what I have been through and still go through. We are there to love and support each other! I would not trade my experience for anything in the world!! As I have explained to people, placing my child for adoption was the single hardest thing I have ever done in my 57 years but also the single greatest thing I have ever done in my life. So, whether you are a birth mother or a family looking to adopt - AIM Adoptions is the place for you!

    Tina, Todd, and all the employees at Legacy Adoption are extremely thoughtful and caring. After we…read morehad a failed adoption in 2020 with another agency, we were in need of a transparent fee schedule and trustworthy counselors. Legacy Adoption's fee schedule is the most transparent in the USA. We spent months looking all over and they are the sole agency that gives a full refund if the placement isn't made. Furthermore, they help you with everything along the way. They made a video for us and other essential information to assist in the matching process. The amount of detail we received about potential matches was impressive. They go to great lengths to ensure both birth mother and adoptive parents are comfortable and confident with the match. Then after the placement, their in-house lawyers take care of all the paperwork which was included in their fees' schedule. Choosing Legacy is a no-brainer and we will definitely use them again in the future. Thanks so much Tina and Todd for our beautiful baby girl!
