My son has attended Mantra Montessori since February 2022!…read more We have loved being a part of the Mantra family! He has now graduated out of the school and is ready for his next chapter! Through his time there he had met so many friends - teachers and families! Each day he learned new skills and was taught great life and educational skills! It's tough to say bye! I will be going back to visit them every so often to keep the connection! Thank you friends and family! Thank you Ms. Stephanie (for being his teacher from start to end). Thank you Ms. Lakshmi, Ms. Zeenath, Ms. Allison, Ms. Pujitha, Ms. Tahaseem, Ms. Pavana and Ms. Vijaya! I'm forever grateful! My family loves you all!

He tells many fun stories once he gets back home, the teachers (Miss Deepika, Miss Vijaya, and Miss Bhawna) and the director, Miss Stephanie, are all very kind and caring. And they have so much creativity when planning all the educational activities and crafts! I'm amazed by all the things that the kids learn every week. Thank you all for enriching my son every single day. I have a very happy kid thanks to all of you.

She kept having us pick up our child claiming that she was sick based on 99F temperature measurement inside the ear! This happened 3 times in two weeks. She claimed that our child had the hand foot mouth disease even after we brought a note from our Dr. saying that she was perfectly fine. I spoke with couple of parents who also confessed that Manori has been unreasonable with her sick child policy, measuring the kids temperature without any reason and claiming they are sick when they are perfectly fine. There are better professional day cares in the ares. Stay away from this one.

My family had the best experience at LAPMS for my son. We moved back in the area and wanted to…read morecontinue his Montessori school learning so we enrolled him for the school year before he goes to TK. This was a fairly new school and it was the most affordable Montessori school in the area. The tour went well and Ms Lana helped us feel at ease that he would be getting great care and education with them. The classrooms were clean and the learning materials seemed very contemporary. Our son adjusted well after a couple weeks and we started to see a great improvement socially and academically and his feelings about school completely changed as well. He was half day initially, but we decided to extend after he was potty trained. He grew to love going to school and eventually during pick up, he'd hide behind his fingers which he explained "I was hiding because I want to stay at school". He loved his teachers and I can tell he got the individualized care he needed. I know my son's time here has made a lasting impression on his educational journey and we would recommend this school to any parent looking for a quality, affordable Montessori school in the area :)

School play area is very big, clean and kids friendly. This is my son's first preschool experience and he is loving his school and teachers so much and wants to go to school everyday. We were concerned about our son's first experience at the school but everything was good. He has made a good progress not only academically but also emotionally and socially with the support of teachers and caring school staff. His teachers Ms. Erica & Ms. Alice both are very caring and loving teachers. Both teachers are extremely knowledgeable in child psychology and early childhood development. Each teacher has their own unique qualities.I always saw them following hygiene level among kids and keeping everything super clean. School staff is also very kind, supportive and welcoming. A big thanks to Ms. Lana who kept updating by calling each day regarding our son. Teachers and staff both are very caring and always keep you posted for the betterment of your child. School just celebrated Easter and kids had lots of fun during egg hunting. My son was super happy and excited. Thank you so much for making such lovely memories for my son. I am really thankful and grateful for both teachers Ms. Erica and Ms. Alice and the school staff for their kindness, support and love to my son. Highly recommended this school for your child!

Appleseed Montessori was the best decision for my child. I had him enrolled in Nov 2021 when he was…read more18 months old. He was under the care of Ms Maria, Ms Ericka and Ms Ana in Room 4A and he loved every moment of it! His teachers cared so much for him and I was able to see that he was actively learning through jobs, art, parallel play right from the start. His teachers even helped him eat when he was still adjusting to eating on his own - which was huge for me. He then moved into Room 2 in 2023 and while it took a while for him to get adjusted, I could actively work with his teachers on potty training, eating habits and general well being. Both Ms Diane and Mrs Sanghera are wonderful and caring teachers who handle transitions seamlessly and ensure the kids are having a good time! You can always ask the teachers for an update and they'll have something specific to say - that always made me feel like they have an eye on every kid. My child has made so many friends here and I'm ever grateful for that. The school is led by Ms Michaella, an excellent administrator. She manages the staff, interacts wonderfully well with the students, and actively engages with the parents. The school also organizes many events (halloween parade, annual day, PJs day..) which is fun for both kids and parents (if you like being part of the activities). They have partnered with Amazing Athletes so it's easy to get the kids interested in many sporting endeavors. The school also has lunch meals provided through a partner service but I did not opt for it - I liked sending lunch with my kid. On the whole, one of the best places to keep your child healthy and safe. True value for your money!

Want to recommend 500 Dunford Way. It is a well-run place with efficient teachers. My kid was very…read morehappy in room 9. They do tons of crafts and activities, celebrate all major festivals and teach the Montessori style. The teachers are patient with the kids and help them settle down well. We had a wonderful experience and formed a great parent-tot group. The teachers involve parents in every activity and ask for volunteers regularly. That forms a wonderful community which we have continued even after all the kids graduated from Appleseed!

This is my long over due review for Little Tree in Sunnyvale. I have nothing else but great things…read moreto say about the school! My daughter Anastasia joined the preschool in 2023 when she just turned 3, and graduated TK this past June. The staff at Little Tree has greatly transformed her from a little clean slate into a bright beautiful girl inside and out! When we first joined, Anastasia went through 10 months of potty training at home, and still couldn't do potty properly by herself. Within one month, the preschool teachers successfully trained her so she got rid of diapers forever! Born into a multi cultural family, Anastasia understood three languages, but couldn't speak anyone very well when she first joined. Within a few months, we saw her Chinese and English vocabulary expanded drastically and she was able to communicate in multiple languages and switch channels seamlessly, thanks to Little Tree's immersive bilingual program! Later on, in the TK program, she was able to write and read basic materials in both English and Chinese, and do addition, subtraction within 100 at age 4! The language skill is just a surface and I couldn't describe enough about the friendly and family like atmosphere that immersed my child. The child learned to make friends, treat each other with respect, how to resolve conflicts with maturity, all thanks to Ms Faye and other teachers' efforts! My child slowly transformed from a sensitive, fragile toddler girl into a 5 year old with great sense of maturity and responsibility. She went on to give the commencement speech representing her class at their graduation ceremony! Every month Little Tree has some ceremonies or festivals, being birthday parties, Chinese holidays, American holidays, graduation parties. There are different themes of decors, paintings decorating the hallway every month. The kids and parents both got to learn different culture, history around the world. They also provided art, dance, clay making classes to choose from, so the kids get exposed to and learned to appreciate different forms of art from a young age. Little Tree also practices the best judgment when it comes to the children's safety and wellbeing. They provide healthy lunch and snacks throughout the day, and good hygiene all around the school. They have the vision screening every year which helped to catch my child's vision issue early, so we were able to apply early treatment to prevent the issue developing into adulthood! We have Little Tree to thank for life! With all the preparation and support from Little Tree, my kid was able to pass the entrance exam with ease at Stratford school in Sunnyvale. As we are excited to enter a new chapter in life, we also have Little Tree in mind to thank for. If you are a multi cultural family, or any family who wish to benefit from a bilingual and multi cultural early education program, I highly recommend Little Tree, as the first stepping stone into a well educated and balanced life!

The classrooms are always clean and well-organized, and the parent volunteer program is something we especially appreciate, it gives us a real window into the classroom and keeps us closely connected with the teachers. A special shout-out to Mrs. Lin, who is truly exceptional at what she does. She's warm and kind with the children while also being firm in the best way, gently guiding them through the Montessori approach. You can tell she genuinely loves the kids and the work. If you have a 2-5 year old, this is such an enriching environment. We feel lucky to have found Villa Montessori and would recommend it to any parent looking for a nurturing, thoughtful preschool. Five stars!

This review is for Children's World Bilingual Montessori (CWBM). My daughter (7 years old) and son…read more(5 years old) both recently graduated from CWBM, spending their preschool years here and my husband and I feel so fortunate to have found this school. CWBM has been like a second home for my children. Just a few of the many things I love about the school: 1) The school itself is a true Montessori school. CWBM is observed by an Association Montessori International (AMI) representative yearly and continues to be recognized as a member of the Association Montessori International. 2) The school itself is so clean and bright inside. This was one of the main reasons I chose CWBM for my children. The children are also taught to help keep the school tidy and neat. 3) The teachers are loving and attentive. On the weekends when he is not in school, my son has often called out his teachers' names while trying to call out to me (his mother). This is just a small indicator of how fond my son was of his teachers. 4) My children were happy in school while learning math, how to read, participating in singing, soccer, dancing, class. 5) Chinese culture and language was introduced during school, which I appreciated, especially living in this global society. 6) I think what I really appreciated most recently with covid, is the precautions that are taken to keep the children and teachers safe. From the very beginning of the pandemic, I felt safe sending my kids to school here and I was on the paranoid side (my kids were one of the first to comfortably wear masks during the pandemic). My children and I will always think of our time at CWBM fondly and continue to recommend this preschool to others. Thank you CWBM!

Here we watched our kids learn how to make friends, how to love and respect them, and also felt the joy of seeing them being loved back by their peers.

We started during the pandemic, and the work Ms Michelle and the teachers put into keeping the children healthy was and still is extremely effective. CWBM is the safest school community, health and emotional-wise, we had the pleasure to be part of.

Here is why we left: -I felt like the quality of care in the infant room was really lacking. Nearly every time that I would pick up my daughter, other babies would be screaming and crying on the floor, all being ignored. It was very upsetting to see and it made me wonder what the staff would do when parents weren't present if they were OK with me seeing that. -DeLor is closed every year for a week between August and September, that is very challenging with a two parent work schedule. -I felt like there were unsafe sleep practices in the infant room (blankets in cribs, babies left unattended, they do have two Type A citations for this which you can look up online here: https://secure.dss.ca.gov/CareFacilitySearch/ -general lack of communication. There were sometimes new teachers with no mention of names, slow to communicate about illnesses in the room. Back in the day my family loved this place, but it is no longer the same. All that being said, the owners are both very friendly and nice and were open to hearing my feedback when I withdrew my daughter.
