They do great activities with the kids and all of their employees are wonderful. It's unfortunate that someone gave a 1 star review just because of the fact that TLT charged a fee during Covid. They send out a very honest explanation and at the time were not being offered any special help /programs from the government as other businesses were. They were faced with a very difficult decision and instead of shutting down their doors and leaving tons of parents scrambling, they stayed opened and very transparent of their decision to charge. I was not thrilled about paying either but to me it was worth it and they really didn't have any other options. As far as the other woman that posted a bad review. It sounds like you're not going to be a "good fit" anywhere. If your child requires alone time, that's going to involve another staff member to supervise this child so that he/she can be alone. Not to mention a free space to do this in. Sounds like you should consider an at home nanny service instead of expecting a daycare to conform to your very specific, high level needs. I looked at her profile and she's given 1-2 stars to 4 other area day cares. At some point, you've got stop and think, "maybe it's not them....maybe it's me" I find the need to point this out because I don't think it's fair to TLT or inquiring parents looking at the ratings to base your decisions off two reviews that really aren't relavent to how wonderful this place truly is. Bottom line, our kids loved it here. The staff is incredibly generous and truly cared for our children. I've never felt more comfortable leaving my kids with anyone else than I have here so THANK YOU ALL!!

Teachers here are really nice and creative(Before our leaving, her teacher asked us if we want to have our daughter's picture. They picked all her picture out and put in a USB key for us. You can image how much extra effort they did). Ratio are very good. And compare to CA. This school does not have those winter break, spring break or summer break(Certainly this is quite common in NH). Classroom and playground are quite spacious and clean. And they have a big gym for rainy day and other activities. Although they don't have lots field trip for toddler and preschool(they do go around campus, and visit fire station and police station from time to time), they do invite others to come to perform. They have story teller, dancer, pet show... And they offers lots fun based curriculum. I missed this school very much

The teachers at Country Village immediately recognized our daughter's potential, helped her catch up academically, and rebuilt the confidence that had been damaged at her previous school. We were thrilled to discover that art and creativity are a part of the inspiring schoolwork at Country Village Montessori so our daughter could come home every day proud of something that she created! Every child deserves a teacher who truly sees and believes in them. Claire and her team have made an incredible difference in our daughter's life, and we couldn't recommend Country Village Montessori more highly.

Worst experience! It started out as a good experience when my son started going there at 4 Mos old…read morebut when he got older we started to realize the lack of care they really provided. My son started being bullied by the upper classroom kids and it was my son that was being blamed at 3 years old. We were being threatened by the director of the school that if we didnt test our son for autism or language issues then he'd be kicked out. So he was tested and passed with flying colors. Then we werent told by his classroom teachers that anything wrong was happening until the director basically told us he isn't allowed to come back because hes disruptive (at 3 years old!). We had witnessed the kids bullying our son on the playground and our son being blamed for it when we didnt make it known to the teacher we were there to see it. Come to find out later there was favoritism happening- the kids who were bullying my son was a teachers nephew so he gets to stay and my son was told to leave. The director was threatening and rude everytime we interacted with her. She doesnt care about the students one bit. The original director was kind when we first started there but once Bree stepped in, everything went downhill. No daycare should ever be run that way. You should feel comforted that you child is loved and cared for, not bullied out. I heard from a few other parents that they witness the same treatment. How sad. Very much do not recommend this place if you care for your child at all.

Swung by here after doing some shopping in town, was impressed by the enormous and very airy,…read morespacious-feeling workout area which is ringed by a nice big indoor track that has full length windows offering some beautiful verdant vistas on all sides. Actual equipment was ok, a bit willy-nilly jumbled up and crowded together though, and the general vibe perhaps as a result of the architecture was somewhat cold and impersonal despite the small-town locale. I was relieved to see that they did have at least two Keiser stationary bikes, which are increasingly rare these days as most gyms get suckered into the big lumbering fancy LOOKING bikes with the flashy screens and video-game simulations, that have lousy ergonomics making you feel like you're pedaling a toy not a real bike. They do have some Concept rowers at least, which is a good sign. Overall I'd say it's a fairly decent Y except for the sauna, which was sorely disappointing in that despite being brand new looking and quite pleasant/spacious, was being run at some geriatric 150-160 degrees tops. Oh and they close way the hell too early on weekends: 5pm on Saturday, 4pm on Sunday. Only slightly less lousy than my home Y in Cambridge (4pm both days). Argh!
